Chapter 941 Lend Him A Hand
When Caleb saw his sister was leaving, he shouted, “Sophie! I know you’re disappointed in us, but we’re still your family no matter what. Visit us when you can As nice as the outside world is, it’s ultimately not her
home.
“All right, I won’t say anything about it anymore. I know you don’t like to hear these.” I know Mom and Dad and Willow did a lot of bad things to Sophie. I understand her refusal to return home.
“I hope you’ll be happy after marrying Mr. Tristan!” No matter what, she’s still my sister. Mom doesn’t like her because of her aloof personality.
“You take care of yourself. I’ll be returning home now. Sophie was unwilling to say much because she wasn’t a magnanimous person. Some damage can never be repaired once inflicted. It can’t be resolved with a single apology.
While watching her leave, Caleb still felt sad. Perhaps this wouldn’t have happened if I had cared a little more about her. I didn’t do a good job as a big brother.
Charmaine hadn’t slept when he returned home.
Upon seeing him, she rose from the couch and asked, “Why are you back so late? Have you eaten?” She noticed his injuries when she approached him and inhaled sharply. “What happened? Who did this to you?”
Caleb didn’t want his mother to spot his wounds because he had always appeared confident in front of his family.
However, it was difficult for him to accept his latest state.
“I’m fine, Mom. I’m tired. I’m gonna go and get some rest. Obviously, he didn’t want to speak too much on the matter. He felt too embarrassed to mention his issues as a man.
Grabbing his hand, Charmaine prevented him from ascending the stairs. “If you can’t work at the research institute, then go to Tanner Group! I’ll ask Sophie to hire you.” I doubt he can make much money working at the research institute anyway. He has a brighter future in a company like Tanner Group, which is improving by the day.
“I told you, Mom. I’m not interested in Tanner Group, so stop bringing it up.” Caleb promptly went upstairs.
Charmaine tried to chase after him, but Willow blocked her path. “Stop it, Mom. He’s not in a good mood. Let him be for a while.”
“What is up with you all? Do I owe you two something? Why do you all take your anger out at me when you’re in a bad mood?” Aren’t I doing this for their own good?
Seeing that her mother was upset, Willow apologized, “I’m sorry, Mom.” She had become a lot more cowardly compared to before.
That sight of Willow enraged Charmaine even further. “Why are you acting like this? This isn’t how you behave in the past!” She has changed. I don’t have any hope for her anymore.
“I’m sorry for disappointing you, Mom.” Willow lowered her head further. What can I do! Neither Sophie nor Tristan is someone I can afford to mess with! My current hope is that I can stay here without trouble. I really don’t want to think about anything else.
Charmaine waved her hand. “You should go and get some rest too.” If Caleb insists on joining the research institute, perhaps Sophie can help out. Our family’s social network is probably incomparable to hers by this point. For my son, I’m willing to beg her for help.
The next day, she visited the University of Medicine because she knew Sophie studied there. However, after waiting for the whole morning, she didn’t see her daughter at all.
