Love Together, Be With You Never novel Chapter 8

“Alicia Cornell, don’t you ever pretend to be kind in front of me! You’ve disgusted me!” I stared at Alicia in superiority and said frigidly. Alicia collapsed onto the ground and looked at me with teary eyes, as if I had pushed her hard just now. Yet the fact was I had not even touched her. “Sis, you---” Her tears flowed down and she cried while covering her face.

Marlon held her up and protected her from his back. He then glared at me in disgust. “Rachael, I can’t believe that not only you’re shameless, you’ve actually debased your own sister like that!” One knife stabbed into my heart followed by the other and the pain was excruciating. Yet I lifted my head and smiled at him. “Marlon Redford, you’re a bastard. You’re an unwitty blind person!”

“Rachael, you truly disgust me!” He carried Alicia, turned around and left. The disgusted look he shot me the moment he turned had pierced my heart, leaving holes on it. Alicia put her arms around Marlon’s neck and her face which was right over Marlon’s shoulder no longer had a single tear. She was curving her lips and smiling at me with delight and complacence. I smiled too. I smiled hard while leaning against the icy wall, until they got into the car and the car sped away in the dark. I closed my eyes gently. Mommy, I feel painful, and tired!

I did not find a hotel to rest but standing with my back against the wall for the whole night silently. I did not want to find a hotel because my economic status forbade me to do so. Since graduating, what was left for me was only the one thousand yuan I saved from doing part-time jobs back then. Therefore I had to spend every penny carefully.

My mobile phone rang all of a sudden. It was Billie. I quickly picked up the call. Billie would not call me for nothing, and now that she had called me, it must have concerned little David. “What’s wrong? Billie.”

“Miss, little David is having a high fever, and he’s in a coma. But mistress forbids me to go out, and it’s obvious she doesn’t want me to get a doctor for little David. Please hurry back and take him secretly to the hospital!” She lowered her voice and sounded really anxious. “I’ll be right back!” After hanging up the call, I no longer had any other mood and immediately hurried back to the Cornell’s house.

Little David had passed out from the fever. I did not want to let Shania knew that I had returned and delayed the time for me to take little David to the doctor, therefore I sneaked into the house, carried little David and wanted to sneak back out. “Why are you coming back, you bitch!” As I was going to leave with little David who was almost unconscious, I encountered Shania by accident. I wanted to seek for a doctor as fast as possible; therefore I ignored her and wanted to leave. Yet Shania blocked my way and showed that she did not want me to get treatment for little David at all. She even wanted to grab little David away from me. “Bitch, let me tell you, I would definitely not let you take this little bastard to the doctor. It’s best that he dies from illness!”

“Get off!” I pushed her and she fell onto the ground. Alicia who saw that quickly held her up and questioned me in rage, “Rachael! How dare you push my mom!” She extended her hands and wanted to push me too, even wanted to fight with me. Alicia was too alike to her mother, and it could say that she had surpassed her mother. She was way more unreasonable than a shrew and when she acted, she looked way purer than a water lily. She had completely exposed her shrew side when Marlon was not present at the moment.

“I said get off!” Little David was in my arms like a fragile thing. His fever did not go down, his face flushed and his lips were pale. Yet the two people in front of me were even crueler than any predator that they wanted to kill such a young child. I was burning with rage and I had the urge to tear those two into pieces. Yet since I was still carrying little David and I was afraid that I would drop him, I did not dare to make big movements.

Alicia scratched and beat me. I was nearly always at a disadvantageous position dodging her attack, and my body was full of scratches. Suddenly, Alicia fell down before me and I did not have the time to react. I thought she must have tripped over something that she accidentally fell down. “Alice! Are you alright?” Marlon held her up and asked with care. Alicia shook her head with teary eyes and tugged his sleeve in fear. She half hid behind him and choked. “I, I think sis is just still being angry due to what happened last night, please don’t blame her!”
