Good people always tended to influence those around them with positive energy and solid values, without them even realizing it.

She had felt incredibly lucky to have met people like that.

“My boss gave me the whole day off. Thank you.”

The assistant smiled. “Well then, I’ll head back. Hope you have a great holiday.”

“Okay, byebye!” Zoe waved at him.

The car drove off slowly.

Zoe was in a good mood. She carried the leftover food home.

She took the elevator upstairs. Before she even got to the apartment, she heard her mother crying.

Her heart dropped. She rushed forward. Through the halfopen door, her mother’s sobs grew clearer.

“Mom.” Zoe pushed the door open quickly and saw the wrecked apartment, her mother on the floor with her head in her hands, crying. Her heart ached like a sharp little knife was cutting

into it.

She didn’t even have to think about what had happened.

She

put down the food, ran over to help her mother up, and checked to see if she was hurt.

Sally wasn’t bruised, but her eyes were red from crying.

So at least that bastard knew a little bit about the law.

He knew that hitting your exwife after the divorce was a crime that could land him in prison.

“He came?” Zoe wiped her mother’s tears.

Sally nodded, sobbing. “He lost every cent of the two hundred thousand dollars you gave him. He couldn’t even afford rent. He wanted money from you. When you didn’t answer his calls, he came here. When I wouldn’t give him money, he said he was going to live with us. I

wouldn’t let him, so he lost his temper. He trashed our home. He took the five hundred and some dollars in cash from the drawer too. He said you owed it to him.”

Zoe clenched her fists. She was shaking with anger.

She took a deep breath and helped her mother to the couch.

“Mom, rest for a bit.” Zoe walked over and put the leftover meat on the coffee table in front of her. “You haven’t had lunch, have you? Eat something. I’ll clean up.”

Sally looked at the mess everywhere and sobbed. “All those appliances–he broke them. Do you know how much they cost?”

Zoe cleaned as she talked. “Mom, what if we sell the apartment and move to another country?”

“Another country?” Sally panicked. “I don’t speak any foreign language. I wouldn’t have to talk to. I…”

“Don’t worry about not finding friends.”

“Then what about your brother?” Sally wiped her tears. She didn’t want to leave him behind.

“If you really miss him, after he gets out of prison, we can bring him over to be with you.”

Sally asked nervously, “If even you stop taking care of your father, will he starve to death?”

Zoe stood up, threw down the thing in her hand, and looked at her mother speechlessly.

Sally flinched at Zoe’s anger. Her tears stopped. Looking a little guilty, she slowly lifted the lid off the food container.

Poor people often had something hateful about them.

She had really had enough.

Night fell.

In winter, night came very early. Just past six, the Whitmore family mansion was already brightly lit.

Yvette sat crosslegged on the carpet, her hands on the coffee table, her cheek pressed against her drawing. She looked completely drained.

She was tired. So tired of revising drafts.

At that moment, she had no ideas at all.

Just then, Harper popped up from the carpet. “Yvette, look at this little princess I drew. Is it pretty?”

Yvette lifted her head, looked at Harper drawing on the carpet next to the coffee table, and smiled. “The princess Harper drew is really pretty. It would be even prettier if Harper drew some little flowers on her dress.”

Harper’s voice was soft and sweet. “Will you teach me how?”

“Okay.” Yvette moved over, propped herself up on her elbows like Harper, and used a pencil to draw little flowers on Harper’s paper.

She went slowly, so Harper could see clearly.

Harper copied her.

Suddenly, there was a noise at the front door, followed by the sound of steady footsteps.

Yvette finished the little flowers and looked up.
