Ashley was working a part-time job in a hotpot restaurant.
She was still dressed in a waiter's uniform while watching the customers eat.
Yesterday, she was fined 50 dollars for breaking a plate while at work.
However, when Olivia called, Ashley was hiding in the bathroom with her phone in hand.
After the call ended, the smile on Ashley's face gradually disappeared.
After all, it was just a short-term happiness.
When Ashley returned home from work, her father, Scott, scolded her instead of greeting her.
"Where did you go, you damned girl? You've been gone all day this vacation! Next semester, you should stop reading.There's no point in reading so many books when tuition is free! Why don't you just stay at home and get married, huh?"
Ashley seemed to be tired of hearing such words from her father, but she refrained from herself.
She had enough, but she knew there was nothing she could do other than enduring her problems.
She stayed quiet.
At the corner of the living room, she saw her mother with bruises all over her body.
Ashley couldn't bear to look at her mother.
She turned around to look at her father.
"How could you beat someone when you are drunk?" she asked in disbelief.
Instead of receiving a response, she was slapped across the face with a loud and rough slap.
Ashley's ears buzzed, and her head tilted in surprise.
Then, her eyes widened in shock.
‘How could a father drink and beat up his own family! Why do I have a mother who is so obedient, tolerating my father's actions?’ she asked herself.
She couldn't believe what her father had just done to her.
Ashley pushed her father, Scott, away and hurriedly left the house without saying a word.
There was no peace and happiness in her family at all.
Ashley only wanted to be in a quiet place.
But it was pointless if she didn't have her bag with her.
She couldn't use her wallet or her phone if she didn't have it.
She had no money and had no choice but to live in the streets.
She even attempted to die several times, but it didn't work.
‘‘This life is a curse!’’ Ashley had been walking for an unknown amount of time when she heard the car beeping behind her.
The sound irritated her.
She irritably looked behind her back and saw someone leaning against the side of the car.
And it was Galen who appeared to be handsome.
Ashley was taken aback for a moment.
