Chapter 281 Lori kicked Sandra into the paddy field.
Sandra, furious and embarrassed, grabbed Loren by the back of his collar and said, "My face was scratched by your mother, Aurora. Your mommy owes me, and today I'm settling the score with her son."
Loren struggled. "Ugly freak, so you lost to my mommy. Since you can't beat her, you bully a kid like me. How pathetic."
Loren's disdainful tone further fueled Sandra's anger.
Sandre thought, 'Are kids these days all this infuriating?'
Loren shouted at the top of his lungs. "Help! Help!"
Sandra immediately covered Loren's mouth with her hand. "Don't worry, I won't harm you for now. You're just bait. With you in my hands, Aurora must find it hard to deal with me. But if you don't behave, I'll send you to heaven right now."
Hearing that he was just being used to threaten his mommy and was temporarily safe, Loren felt less scared. Then Loren stopped struggling.
Everyone in the village had gone to the back mountain, so no one would come to help no matter how much he shouted.
Loren was very sensible. Having been kidnapped before, Loren was much calmer than his peers. This calmness might even surpass that of some adults.
Sandra noticed the driver emerging from inside, his feet emitting a particularly foul odor. Instinctively, she covered her nose. "What is that smell?" she asked.
"It's this kid's poop. It really stinks." The driver even lifted his foot to show Sandra.
Seeing the mess on the driver's shoe, Sandra almost vomited. Then she ordered, "Throw your shoes away."
The driver nodded. "Yes, Ms. Johnson."
The driver's shoes and even his pant legs were covered in it. The smell was even also unbearable for him.
Sandra said, "Take off your outer pants as well."
Sandra stepped back a few paces in disgust.
The driver had to take off his outer pants, leaving him in just a pair of red long johns.
Loren pried Sandra's hand away and couldn't help but comment, "Sir, it seems your health isn't great! You are middle-aged; take care of yourself."
Then Loren grabbed Sandra's hand and covered his own mouth again.
The driver's face turned sour. He was only thirty, not middle-aged.
Sandra, with a sullen face, threw Loren to the driver and ordered, "Take him to the car."
Just like that, the driver, in his red long johns, carried Loren to the car, and Sandra got in too.
As soon as the car started, there was a loud bang, and the right rear of the car sank.
Sandra poked her head out and her eyes widened.
When did the tire get removed?
Sandra immediately looked around warily but saw no one. She quickly said: "Get out of the car. Take him out of the village and have our people meet us."
The whole village was eerily quiet, making it a bit scary.
The driver got out with Loren, holding him by the waist. After just a few steps, he felt a sudden pain on his forehead.
A steel ball hit his forehead.
The driver screamed and instinctively let go of Loren, reaching for his forehead.
Thirty feet away, Summer, holding a slingshot, fired several more steel balls, all aimed at the driver and Sandra.
"Loren, come here." Summer commanded with authority.
Seeing Summer, Loren ran towards him immediately.
"Quickly, seize those two children," Sandra demanded, having been struck by several steel pellets and in considerable pain, hiding behind the driver and shouting.
"Yes, Ms. Johnson." The driver advanced.
"Don't you dare!" Summer, holding the slingshot, aimed at the driver's lower region and fired a steel ball.
The driver screamed in agony, his eyes bulging, clutching his crotch and jumping in place.
Summer coolly touched her nose. "You're asking for it."
"Summer, you're so cool." Loren looked at her with admiration.
Sandra, furious, pushed the driver aside. "Useless."
At that moment, Sandra's men drove several vehicles into the village.
Sandra had previously worried about alerting the villagers, so she hadn't brought them in.
Sandra sneered, "If you don't want to suffer, come with me quietly."
In terms of family hierarchy, Sandra was still Summer and Loren's aunt.
Summer shielded Loren, looking around calmly. "If you have the guts, catch us first."
With that, Summer pulled Loren and ran along the field ridge.
"Chase them." Sandra ordered, "Quickly, don't alert the villagers."
"Yes, Ms. Johnson." The subordinates shouted in unison.
After Jennifer's death, the members of The Shadow of Darkness organization began to see Sandra as their highest leader.
Only Aurora, John, and Sandra knew about Alexander's fake death, so now Sandra was the de facto leader of The Shadow of Darkness organization.
Around eight people chased Summer and Loren. The two kids were smart, splitting up to reduce the chance of being caught.
As he ran, Summer fired steel balls, and with his training and agility, it wasn't easy for them to catch him.
However, Loren was in trouble. He was chubby and couldn't run fast. Soon, he was out of breath and surrounded by three people.
"Chubby kid, where do you think you're going?"
Loren panted heavily, clutching his stomach, feeling like he needed to poop again.
Seeing Loren surrounded, Summer wanted to help but was entangled by four others and couldn't break free.
"I'm not chubby." Loren couldn't stand being called fat. Suddenly, he shouted in Sandra's direction. "Help!"
"At this point, shouting for help is useless." Sandra sneered. "Quick, get him..."
"Who says it's useless?"
Lori's voice floated out from behind Sandra.
If her car hadn't broken down halfway, she would have arrived earlier.
Seeing Lori, both Summer and Loren breathed a sigh of relief.
Sandra turned around to see Lori smiling at her. She was frightened and said, "Quick, throw that chubby kid into the water."
There was a pond not far from Loren.
Sandra knew how terrifying Lori was. The people she brought weren't enough for Lori to practice on.
Seeing everyone attacking Loren, Lori quickly kicked Sandra into the muddy field.
Sandra fell face-first into the mud, and Lori stepped on her back to cross the field ridge towards Loren.
Sandra was soaked, her eyes, nose, and mouth full of mud. When she got up, she couldn't see anything.
Sandra wiped the mud from her face and ran.
