章 133: STRANGE CREATURE

Hu Lei looked at the news on the Murong scandal with a strange sense of detachment. She could not muster any feelings even as she listened to Beatrice talk about the case animatedly. The girl's views and comments were fascinating, but Hu Lei did not betray anything more than casual interest.

Actually, Hu Lei did not need to be a genius to figure out that the matter was probably related to her mother and her family. However, there was no feeling of connection. The thought of having a mother somewhere in the world seemed so alien to her. In fact, this matter rarely crossed her mind. After all, she could not think about Lu Liang as her mother.

Their relationship was no better than that of strangers. If they were truly mother and daughter, the woman would have noticed that she had been missing. That would be unlikely because she had never reached out even when Hu Lei was a minor.
