Chapter 945 Adding to the Trouble
On the other side, Alivia had not done any work over 10 p.m. since she left the bar that night. To make money, she found a lot of jobs. The hospital's surgery fee was a heavy burden on her heart, and her younger brother, Henry Graves, had already got his results in the college entrance examination.
"Sister, I got 620 points. After passing the minimum score of more than 50 points in our city, I can go to a key university!"
Henry said excitedly over the phone. Alivia stood at the stairs of the hospital and leaned against the pale wall behind her. She forced a smile and said, "Congratulations, Henry. You have realized your dream."
"It's still a long time before I apply, but our teacher said that I have a lot of choices to apply for the school. I want to stay in Jewel City so that I can take care of Mom and you while studying." Henry choked with sobs of joy.
Alivia nodded with relief, but she couldn't suppress the sourness in her heart. She opened her mouth, and her throat seemed to be stuffed with lemon. It was sour and uncomfortable. She was afraid that she would cry in the next second, so she hurriedly explained, "Don't think about me and Mom. I can do it. Go wherever you want. If you think about it, tell me. Well, the doctor has something to do, and I will call you later."
After hanging up the phone, tears welled up in her eyes. She had suppressed her emotions for too long and finally found an outlet to vent them on.
Someone suddenly came down the stairs and passed by. Alivia was afraid of being seen, so she turned around and went to the small rooftop in the middle of the hospital. The rooftop was more like a corridor connecting the east and west buildings.
Now that the weather was getting cold, there were very few people here. She stood in front of the railing and finally, there was no one around her, and she could cry freely.
