Chapter 241
Tears suddenly streamed down Emily’s face. She raised her hand to cover her face, and the tears rolled down her cupped hand.
“Emily, I know this is really unfair to you. Blame me, but don’t blame your brother. He doesn’t even dare to call you himself, Emily’s mother cried. “Your sister–in–law has been giving your brother a hard time over the house thing, and your brother is at his wit’s end.”
Emily took a deep breath, wiped the tears from her face, and nodded. “I know, I’ll find my own place to live,”
“Emily, I know you’re a sensible, good girl!” Her mother seemed to be sobbing with her mouth covered.
After hanging up, Emily sat on her bed, feeling a mix of heartache and sadness. Her father had been gone for so long without any news, and now, she had no home to go back either.
Her happiest time in life was before she was twelve when her father hadn’t yet gotten addicted to gamble, and her life was happy and carefree.
And now, even that home that held the happiest memories of her childhood was gone!
She covered her face, silent but shaking with sobs,
“What’s wrong?”
A deep voice came from outside the door. Charlie leaned against the door looking at the young girl sitting on the bed with her back to the door, crying.
Emily immediately bowed her head, choking on her words. “Nothing!”
“When there’s a problem, tell me. If it’s not that tough, I can sort it out for you,” Charlie said with a light tone.
Emily shook her head, burying it in her arm. “it’s really nothing. I just want to be alone right now.”
After half an hour, Emily came out calmly, showing no signs of her previous porrow. She first went to the kitchen to cook some food, then went to Charlie’s room. “Charlie, I need to go home for a bit, so I might not be back until the afternoon. I’ve cooked lunch and left it in the fridge. Just heat up the food when it’s time.”
