Chapter 2055
“I’ll do as you say.”
“I’ll drive you guys.” Theo, who had initially wanted to leave, immediately got into the car.” Bonnie and I will return to Joshua’s house as soon as we drop you off at your place, Sean.”
Sean glanced at Theo and nodded. “Thank you.”
The three of them got into the car.
The night was silent apart from the faint chirping of birds and rustling of leaves. Finally, with Sean’s directions, they arrived at his house, and Theo parked the car.
The smell of rot and mold enveloped them as soon as they opened the door. Bonnie and Theo furrowed their brows in disgust.
Bonnie immediately pinched her nose. “How can you live in a place like this, Sean?”
Besides, did Sean not say that his sister was ill? If so, how was she supposed to get better when she lived in a place like this?
Sean scratched his head awkwardly and replied, “I know the environment isn’t the best…but the rent is cheap here.”
Then, he let out an exhale and added, “Don’t worry; I treat my sister better than this!”
With that, he got out of the car and led Bonnie and Theo into the small house that he and his
sister, Nikki, lived in.
Even though the air outside was filled with the stench of mold and rot, the house was surprisingly cozy.
A young girl was sitting in a lawn chair in the garden, dressed in her pajamas as her eyes were fixed on the gate.
When she saw the gate open, she leaped up and exclaimed in delight, “Sean! You’re home!”
