Chapter 402 The Miserable End of Eileen
Early the next morning, Fiona's parents came to the Brook family's villa according to the given address, but they were stopped by a security guard.
Fiona's parents were ordinary workers and seemed to be the odd ones out in this high-end housing complex.
They were nervous and unsettled when the security guard called the Brook family to confirm their identities.
"You are Fiona's parents, right? Please wait a moment. The Brook family will soon pick you up."
"Thanks, but we can go there by ourselves."
The security guard patiently explained, "The villa of the Brook family is too far away from here. It's easy to get lost if you don't know the exact routes."
Then they waited in peace for a while, and a black car stopped in front of them.
"Excuse me, are you Fiona's parents?"
"Yes." They nodded repeatedly.
"Hurry up and get in the car."
The car drove for more than ten minutes before arriving at the Brook family's villa.
In such a high-end and luxurious house, neither of them dared to look around. Then they heard a familiar voice.
"Mom and Dad!"
Fiona threw herself into her parents' arms like a little swallow returning to her nest. All of them hugged and cried together.
After a while, Fiona's parents calmed down and thanked the Brook family sincerely.
"Thank you for taking Fiona away. Otherwise, I don't know what will happen if she comes back to Eileen's home."
Both of them saw the video that had been revealed on the Internet, so they panicked even after knowing Fiona was safe.
If Fiona was still in Eileen's house now, Eileen would vent her anger on Fiona.
"Fiona is fine."
Nancy smiled gently and said, "Fiona likes drawing, so maybe you can let her attend drawing classes."
Fiona's father nodded. "Yes, that's exactly what I am thinking about. Children nowadays take part in off-campous hobby programs. I also plan to give Fiona a try."
Fiona's mother added, "Although we don't have a high salary, we can afford to rent a small house in S City by using our years of savings. We can bring up Fiona."
Fiona and her parents refused to have lunch with the Brook family because they were awkward staying in such a luxurious place. They took out a small jar of pickles when they were about to leave.
"The pickles are homemade, and I hope you will like them."
Looking at Nancy and her family members, they were a little embarrassed to hand over the pickles.
Nancy took over the jar that was not too big. "Thank you! Fiona, remember my phone number. If you miss me, just call me."
"Okay!"
Fiona took her parents' hand and nodded seriously.
After seeing Fiona and her parents off, Louis took the pickle jar from Nancy and went to the kitchen.
"Let's cook the pickles."
Since Nancy had accepted the jar of pickles, it was a pity to waste this food.
After the filming of the variety show, Nancy returned to school and faced an upcoming exam.
Early the next morning, the door of Nancy's bedroom was opened before she woke up.
Then several people walked in.
The rain outside disrupted the routine morning jog, so Nancy still didn't get up.
She was vaguely aware that she was taken into someone's arms.
She sniffed the air and smelt cedar on Marcus, wine on Martin, and mint-flavored shower gel on Louis. She also smelt the fresh scent on Ivan and disinfectant on Shawn.
With her eyes still closed, Nancy could easily distinguish the smells of her elder brothers.
Nancy was lifted out of the bed by Marcus, her fair arms wrapping around his neck and her chin resting on his broad shoulders. Her curly eyelashes fluttered as if she was about to open her eyes in the next second.
"Where're the socks?"
