Celena was not stupid. Sherah and Qemal usually would not bother visiting her unless they needed help. The fact that they came to look for her that day was certainly because they had something to ask of her. Otherwise, they would not be so friendly and agreeable.
"Mom, why exactly have you come to look for me? You can just tell me straight away. If it's anything that I can help with, I'll do it!"
Sherah waited for Celena to ask her. Once Celena did, Sherah sat on the couch, buried her tearful face in her hands, and said, "Celena, you must help your brother! He got into a little trouble. He's still young. It's only normal to make some mistakes. You must not abandon him!"
Celena's expression became solemn in an instant. She asked with a frown, "Mom, quick, tell me what happened! Even though Qemal is only my half-brother, he is still my brother."
Celena still cared about her family. Even though Sherah and Qemal treated her badly, she still wanted to help since they already come to her.
Liam was worried that these two would bully Celena. That was why he sat on the other couch with Jovie in his arms and listened to their conversation silently. He sighed helplessly but said nothing.
"I knew that you wouldn't just abandon your brother like that!" Sherah quickly looked up at Celena. Besides having some redness in her eyes, she completely did not look like someone who just cried. Her acting was so terrible, but Celena simply could not tell.
Sherah explained, "It's about the contract for the materials that your brother signed with a company the other day. When the materials arrived, they were all problematic! These subpar materials were completely unusable!
"Qemal requested a refund, but they weren't willing to do so. He even brought out the contract and argued that those were the materials that were originally ordered. They pushed all responsibilities and blame on Qemal.
