Looking at the burning house, she didn't dare to look at the neighbors and firefighters who were rescuing the fire. It seemed that one more look would make her feel guilty, and one more look would make her feel how stupid she was to believe Miguel and fall in love with Carlson!
"I'm really a loser, a loser... I don't know why I have lived to this day. What Carlson said is right. I am so stupid!" Leena sneered while crying. Her heart was so cold. She was heartbroken to everyone!
The fire was finally extinguished in an hour. As Leena expected, there was nothing left in the house, not even a bowl. There was only all black ruins left, not only that, but also the surrounding neighbors were affected, and the walls were burned black.
All of the things on the balcony were also burnt. All these property losses should be counted on Leena. She was not in the mood to estimate how much she had lost, but she was in a bad mood, and she had to sincerely apologize to her neighbors. In the end, she was as numb as a walking dead.
Mrs. Yang had always been on good relationship with her neighbors. They didn't blame and comforted her. But she knew that although they didn't blame her, they were still a little uncomfortable in their hearts. They were not rich, and because of her family, they had caused property losses to the people around them. How could they not complain at all? So she promised again and again that she would compensate all the losses of her neighbors.
How much was the loss? Was she able to pay back? Leena didn't know. She just promised and apologized one by one. She was in a mess and had no idea what to do.
After the fire, the firefighters couldn't give the cause of the accident. Leena also got a record from the police station and cooperated with the investigation. When the police asked her where her mother was going, Leena replied, "She's back to her hometown. She can't come back for the time being. "
The police asked her to ask what her mother had done at home and why she had a fire. Leena nodded her head repeatedly, but she didn't take it to heart. How could she ask her mother about the reason of the fire? Perhaps even her mother didn't know, because the nameless fire was obviously not caused by her mother.
Walking out of the police station, Leena didn't want to say a word at all. Rena kept comforting her, "Don't be too sad. This matter will pass. Just take it as being bitten by a dog. Now let's think about what to do. Should we figure it out through Carlson or Miguel? "
Leena said dejectedly, "Rena, I suddenly feel so tired. I'm so tired of living. When my father passed away, I didn't feel so bitter when I worked and went to school, because I know that life is not desperate. I can make my family live a better life with my efforts. But now, I feel that I can't control my fate. Conspiracy, use and deception. I don't know from which day they will break into my life. I don't want to adapt, but I am only said to be stupid by outsiders. Now when I think of it, I am indeed stupid, because I can't return to my original life. How can I adapt to this environment with my original state of mind? So I am constantly used and deceived! "
