Chapter 238: Chapter 238: The Hatred for Kidnapping My Niece Is So Deep That We Cannot Coexist Under The Same Sky

Because Serena is their daughter, no matter what they do to her, even if they sell her off as merchandise, she can only suffer in silence.

If she dares to refuse, that would be considered unfilial.

Serena had thought that the Lane Family thought the same.

But as soon as she finished speaking, someone flicked her forehead.

Julian Lane’s well-defined fingers bent and knocked on Serena’s forehead, "In your heart, do you really think your uncle is such an unreasonable man? I’ve already looked into your situation before you came, and you’ve been through a lot. It’s all our fault, after we cut ties with Jeanette Lane, we never paid attention to the affairs of the Summers Family again."

Serena stepped back in pain, reaching up to rub her flicked, slightly aching forehead, "Then did you know that Grace Summers was planning to stab me with a knife and that Lucas got hurt protecting me?"

Julian’s expression suddenly became very grim, he nodded slightly, "I know."

"Then why would you..." Serena’s eyes were filled with disbelief.

Knowing all this, why would he let someone release Grace Summers?

Speaking of this, a few tinges of anger surfaced on Julian’s handsome face, "Jeanette Lane lied to me, she used your name to come to me, saying you were framed and taken to the police station. I was exhausted from shooting all day and had taken a long flight back from abroad, there was simply no time to investigate properly."

By the time he woke up from his sleep, he realized his grave mistake.

The daughter spoken of by Jeanette Lane was not Serena, but Grace.

But it was already too late; the person had been released.

"It’s uncle’s fault, don’t worry, I won’t let her off easily. As for the Summers Family, none of those who bullied you will be able to escape."

Julian clasped his hands together, his knuckles cracking audibly, his eyes squinting with murderous intent.

Serena always felt she was lucky, being kidnapped and experimented on, she met Lucas Shaw.

She was deliberately lost by Elena Ryan but happened to be picked up by her master, and gained three senior martial brothers.

Abandoned by her biological parents, she was soon reunited with Lucas Shaw.

From beginning to end, they protected her, allowing her to hardly ever suffer throughout her childhood.

But she had always thought her familial sentiments were too shallow until this moment, feeling Julian’s undisguised care and protection, Serena realized that she did care about family after all.

Serena’s nose tinged with a sour feeling, and the word "Uncle" slipped from her lips.

Julian was momentarily stunned, taking a while to come back to his senses.

Seeing this, Serena couldn’t help but be a bit dumbfounded. She stretched out her little hand and waved it in front of her uncle.

Her uncle wouldn’t have gone stupid, would he?

When Julian returned to his senses, he held onto Serena’s shoulders, his face full of excitement as he said: "Serena, what did you call me? Say it again. Hurry, hurry, I didn’t catch it the first time."

Looking helplessly at him, she saw him take his mobile phone out of his pocket, opening the recording app.

He even carefully positioned the speaker towards her.

His dark eyes filled with anticipation.

Serena couldn’t describe what she was feeling in her heart; it just seemed to be warm and swelling.

"Uncle," she solemnly called out again.

Julian clutched his chest, excited to the point of almost fainting.

He hurriedly clicked save, afraid he would accidentally delete this precious voice recording.

Serena watched as his eyes reddened slightly, he reached out his long arms and hugged her tightly.

Feeling Julian’s warm embrace, Serena also began to smile.

Could this be the power of blood relations?

It’s truly wonderful.

Without any so-called proof, you can feel it at first glance—he is family.

And that warmth coming from a relative, Serena Summers had never felt before.

She followed Henry Summers back to the Summers Family because she held hopes for her family.

But later, she realized that the higher the expectations, the greater the disappointment.

Gradually, she began to retract her expectations, believing it’s the best way to protect herself from getting hurt.

But now, feeling the man tightly embracing her, Serena thought that with real family, there’s no need to hide emotions.

When Lucas Shaw entered, this was the scene he saw.

His little wife, who had been coquettishly rolling in his arms in the morning, was now tightly held by another man.

Not only did she not push him away, but she also reached out to hug him back.

He couldn’t see the man’s face clearly, but the man’s build was not bad.

Lucas Shaw suddenly felt a sense of crisis and hurriedly stepped forward to separate the two hugging people.

"What are you doing?"

The man’s face was dark and terrifying, like densely packed storm clouds, with a pair of hawk-like, pitch-black, cold eyes flashing a sharp chill.

Julian Lane was utterly confused; he was just holding his soft and squishy little niece, and suddenly they were pulled apart?

Upon taking a closer look, oh, it turned out to be that dog of a man who popped out of nowhere!

The hatred for stealing his niece was unbearable!

However, before he could react, the girl beside him suddenly revealed a slight smile and opened her arms towards the man, "Husband!"

And then, Julian Lane watched, eye-wide, as a man who had been gloomy a second ago instantly softened while looking at Serena, his eyes quickly turning tender.

The rapid change was simply jaw-dropping.

Julian Lane was dumbfounded.

But Lucas Shaw had no time to deal with him.

He held Serena in his arms, lowering his gaze to look at her porcelain-white little face, and asked, "Didn’t you say you were doing a photoshoot?"

"Yes," Serena pulled on Lucas Shaw’s hand, pointing to Julian Lane beside her, "Husband, let me introduce you, this is my little uncle, and also the photographer for this shoot."

Little uncle?

Lucas Shaw glanced at Julian Lane, then back at Serena.

There was indeed some resemblance between the two.

Lucas Shaw slightly raised an eyebrow, "From the Lane Family of Imperial Capital?"

Julian Lane coughed lightly and stood up from the chair, straightened out his somewhat wrinkled suit, and reached out to him.

"Hello, Mr. Lucas Shaw, I’ve long admired your name."

"I’m hearing your name for the first time, though," Lucas Shaw said with a wicked curve of his lips, not giving Julian Lane any face.

Julian Lane was not upset, responding with a light smile, "Indeed, I’m not someone famous, it’s normal for Mr. Lucas Shaw not to know of me. My main purpose here is to see if my niece is doing well."

"It doesn’t matter if she’s doing well or not, it’s none of your business, since she has already cut ties with the Summers Family," Lucas Shaw’s voice was cold.

Julian Lane chuckled, clapping his hands, "What a coincidence, our Lane Family also cut ties with the Summers Family. Because of Jeanette Lane, we’ve never paid attention to the Summers Family’s matters. Only recently with all the noise online did we find out, Serena was just found and then bullied by their family. So, the old master specifically sent me to check on Serena."

He spoke at length, essentially trying to make his stance clear.
