Chapter 469
While Serenity was feeling uneasy, Elisa spoke. Her voice was abnormally calm when she asked Serenity, “Serenity,
my mom will come home around noon. Can I go to your place to pick up Sonny?”
Elisa did not have much of an impression of her aunt, and could not tell much from the photos of her. In Serenity’s
words, children were all cute when they were young.
If Sonny looked like her aunt, even if it was just a little, she could not just let it go. She had to let her mother see
him.
Elisa recalled the moment she first met Serenity. Something inexplicable had made her want to get closer to
Serenity.
The first time she met Sonny, she liked him right away too.
If Sonny was her aunt’s grandson, that might explain why she liked Sonny from the moment she met him.
It was not like she had never seen a kid of Sonny’s age before, but only Sonny made her like him from the very first
moment. He made her want to kidnap him to be her own nephew and when she bought toys for him, she was not
stingy at all. She even wished she could open a toy factory for Sonny just to make toys for him.

Considering her status, there had never been a shortage of people by her side who sucked
to her and flattered her. She did not like them.
The number of true friends the twenty–six–year–old had could be counted on one hand because she was picky.

However, that closeness felt at first sight with Serenity allowed her to disregard Serenity’s family background and
class, which made her befriend Serenity willingly.
That was not just because Serenity helped her think of ways to pursue Mr. York.
It was because she really liked being friends with Serenity.
“Elisa, I can’t do that right now. Something’s happened with Sonny.”
Hearing that, Elisa’s heart skipped a beat. She asked worriedly, “What happened to Sonny?”
Serenity hesitated for a moment before deciding to tell the truth. “You know my sister asked her husband for a
divorce, right? After that, the Browns took advantage of my sister’s inattention to kidnap Sonny and sent him to
Chelsea’s house.
“But they didn’t take good care of him. Chelsea’s younger son hit Sonny and when Sonny retaliated, he ran crying
to his older brother to get revenge on Sonny when he was the one
who started it first. That little b*stard beat Sonny so badly that he had to be hospitalized.”
Elisa immediately got furious. “Serenity, why didn’t you tell me when such a serious thing happened? I told you to
just tell me and I’d definitely help you. How’s Sonny now? Has the person who attacked Sonny been caught?”
Setting aside the possibility that Sonny might very well be her aunt’s grandson, she could not stand hearing that
Sonny had been attacked purely because he was so cute and she really liked him.
“Sonny has a soft tissue injury to the face that hasn’t healed yet. His attacker also kicked him. twice. I saw the
security camera footage, Sonny was sent flying as far as a meter away. I really want to tear his attacker to shreds
for this! But… his attacker is still a kid too, around ten years old.”
No matter how big and burly Matthew Repton looked, his age was the crux of it. He really was just a ten–year–old
kid.
“We’ve reported it to the police, but for a ten–year–old kid, education is the emphasis. They can’t arrest him and
can only compel his parents to subject him to strict discipline. Right now, my husband and I are going over to
discuss the issue of compensation with them.
“Sonny suffered a really big shock and fainted on the spot. Last night, when we left the hospital and returned home,

his fever went down and tiring himself out from crying.”
“A ten–year–old kid beat Sonny so cruelly? And they’re cousins, right? Your sister’s sister–in law is a rare specimen
in this world. With a mother like that, how can anyone expect her kids to turn out well? Serenity, send me the
location. I’ll gather a few cars of people to go over. They’re not going to fight, just scare them a little, so they won’t
bully Sonny again in the
future.”
Elisa was beyond livid after hearing all that. She was a protective person. It did not matter why the other party had
hit Sonny, she would always be on Sonny’s side.
“My husband called all his cousins to come over. There are already about eight or nine people there. I don’t need
your help with that for now.”
Serenity thanked Elisa, but politely turned down Elisa’s offer to bring more people over.
Elisa’s temper was rather… volatile.
Their visit to the Reptons today was purely for negotiation.
If they brought Elisa with them, Serenity was afraid she would not be able to contain her temper and would blow up
on the Reptons.
It was enough to bring just the York cousins with them. “Your husband has that many cousins?”
