The cheque was thrown at her face. It hurt her more than she thought.
She bit the lips and squatted down to pick up the cheque. However, before she touched the cheque, Ruben gave her shoulder a heavy kick.
Ruben looked at her in disgust, "I wish you were dead."
With saying that, he turned around and left.
Samantha stared at his back. Tears that stood on the rims of her eyes flowed down slowly.
Why didn't she die?
She was almost killed in the prison, but she would not let Peyton get her wish.
Samantha got the cheque, so she went to the hospital to pay bills. She looked at her foster mother who was seriously ill and could not help but cry.
"Mom, you can get better." She lowered her head and choked with sobs.
She had been in such kind of position. Apart from her foster mother lying on the bed, she had no relatives.
She was not welcome by the Moore family.
She had nowhere to go.
After visiting her foster mother, Samantha prepared to leave hospital and go home, but in the hallway, she saw Ruben and Mrs Moore walking towards the ward with anxiety.
Samantha wanted to avoid Mrs Moore. She had feelings. Though she said that she didn't care, she was hurt that biological mother was partial to Peyton.
Mrs Moore saw Samantha and hurried to Samantha. Before Samantha could react, Mrs Moore slapped her twice in the face.
Mrs Moore used so much force that Samantha lost her balance and staggered against the wall.
