Runemaster in the Last Days novel Chapter 219

Because they might be dragged into various troubles that they should not have faced with their family’s situation before.

Moreover, there was no guarantee that they could protect them.

Riya glanced at Samuel and said, "You’re thinking too much, Senior Samuel. I’m not afraid of them."

Yes, she used to hate troubles.

But Riya also knew that it was impossible for her to avoid troubles.

Even if she did nothing, there were some people who would like to step forward and made trouble with her.

In that case, why should she stayed silent?

Samuel was silent for a moment and said, "I’ll investigate the people who worked in the inner area."

He also didn’t want to be watched by others all the time. It was tiring.

"Thank you, Senior Samuel." Riya smiled.

Samuel nodded and then went out to start checking and cleaning up. Once this was done, he wanted to go back and spent his time training.

Rather than going out to meddle in this kind of matter, Samuel preferred to train with his swords.

Riya watched Samuel’s back for a moment and then went back to her room. She wanted to take a look at her farm and so on first.

Thompson Family’s side

Mrs. Thompson, Riya’s mother, was not feeling well. She thought that she could make her daughter listen to her, but reality told her that Riya would not listen to her anymore.

Mr. Thompson looked at his wife and asked, "Didn’t you say that Riya is an obedient child?"

When Riya was young, she knew very well that she couldn’t fight against her parents. So unless they did anything that crossed the lines, she still maintained a respectful and obedient appearance in front of them.

But if they were to threaten her safety…

They had to be prepared for the consequences.

Both Mrs. Thompson and Mr. Taylor understood their daughter’s personality because she had nearly caused both of them to be put into detention because of their neglect. They had seen her cruelty and also the fact that she would lose nothing.

In the first place, Riya had nothing to lose.

But both of them have their own career and their own families, so they couldn’t possibly let Riya caused their lives to be destroyed.

They had to care for their faces.

So they would never do anything that crossed the lines and when Riya became an adult, they severed their ties with her.

"She’s usually quite obedient." Mrs. Thompson frowned when she heard her husband’s words.

"Mom." Their child, Pera, looked at his mother and said, "I’m hungry."

Their family of three was not very lucky.

When the earthquake happened, they were confined in their home and they didn’t have much resources.

Going out on their own?

It was impossible.

They had to wait until military people came and checked on them before they could come out and finally came to City A Base.
