“Please refund the money to me. I’ll check out, and everything else it’s up to you.” Clara wanted to take back everything she had given Helena. She wondered how she could survive.
She wanted to rely on Laura when she was still alive, but Laura made her disappointed. She was willing to abandon all she got to help her daughter. Now, let’s see if she could make it on her own.
Shane realized he had screwed up. As a newly graduated student, how could he survive without living place? Where should he live? Should he go home?
No way, he didn’t want to go home. It was too embarrassing.
“I put your medicine here. This is all you got. If it’s finished, you need to work it out yourself. Maybe you can have your real daughter buy it for you. ” Everything she had was provided by Clara. Since Helena chose her own daughter, then don’t blame her for being ruthless.
“No, you can’t do that! Vicious bitch. You’ll go to hell!” Helena felt sad when she saw that she was deprived of everything she had. But there was no way that she would beg Clara for not doing it. She could only curse and hope Clara would regret it.
Shane was sitting on the ground. He had no say in it. This was not his place, nor the house he rented. He just lived here for some reasons.
“Oh? I’m crazy. Then give me back your medicine as well.” Clara reached out her hand and looked at the medicine in Helena’s hand. She knew that once without the medicine, Helena could no longer live.
Helena grasped the medicine bottle and refused to give it. She acted as if she would fight at all cost. Clara burst into sneer. Was this human nature? People were selfish, after all.
Clara grinned and soon drove away. Shane and Helena looked at the back of the car and couldn’t function for a long time. Things changed so suddenly that they hadn’t been prepared.
Shane directly left. Shane just wanted to find a place to live, so he flattered Helena. Since Helena was also penniless now, he didn’t need to stick around. Anyway, Laura never liked her mother.
“Where are you going?” Helena had a bad feeling and her heart flustered. Did he want to ditch her?
“I’m leaving. Take care.” Shane didn’t even turn his head back and left directly. Helena froze there, pissed off.
Helena originally had difficulty walking. Since she couldn’t be taken care by others, where could she go? She spent her last penny on buying Laura a bed.
Even feeding herself had become a problem.
The people in the nursing home were annoyed when they saw Helena kneeling at the gate. They wanted her to leave.
Her daughter died a few days ago, which already made people at the nursing home uneasy. But they couldn’t shoo her away because she paid for the room. Now they were willing to kick her out.
“Hurry up, you are such a jinx.”
“Go away.”
“This is not the place for you.”
“…”
Helena stumbled away because she didn’t want to lose her face. Even if she walked away, she could still hear the abuse behind. Although Helena wanted to scold back, she knew she wasn’t able to do so.
In fact, Helena always knew where Neo was, because Laura told her. She thought about using this secret to exchange for her own security. But after thinking about it, she must revenge her daughter’s murder.
She could only walk slowly in the street and live off the leftovers in the restaurant every day. Life was extremely difficult. Some people thought she was poor and threw her bread on the ground.
At first, Helena didn’t want eat the food on the ground, but gradually, when she almost fainted due to hunger, she had to go back to find the bread on the ground and devoured it.
It had been trampled by many people. But she had to eat it to survive. Helena had lost a lot of weight by the end of the day.
Horace came home in the evening and looked at Clara, who was sitting at the dinner table. His uneasiness was finally relieved. Horace took off his coat, sat down in front of Clara, and then stared at Clara.
He found that Clara was a little different, much less grumpy than this morning. Although she was still grim, Horace was quite happy about it.
Horace didn’t ask for anything else now; he just wanted Clara by his side. He knew he could make Clara change his mind. As long as Clara loved him, everything would be easy.
“Clara, where did you go today?” Horace looked at Clara and put her favorite dishes in the bowl. Clara looked at Horace and continued to eat with her head down.
“You don’t want to say? Is there anything you don’t want me to know?” Horace certainly knew that Clara didn’t want to talk to him. But colder she was, more Horace wanted to talk to her.
Maybe Clara could forget about the past and talk to Horace again? Horace made up his mind. He told Clara a lot of things in the company today, and Clara was tired of listening to it.
“I went to visit Helena and Shane.” Clara glanced at Horace and then answered Horace’s question. Horace grinned and looked at Clara.
“Well, my wifey must be very tired today, you should eat more.” Hearing Horace call her “wifey” made Clara stunned. She threw a look at Horace and continued to eat with his head down.
Horace saw Clara’s reaction, and then saw that Clara had finished all the dishes he had put in her bowl. Delighted, he continued to put more dishes in Clara’s bowl. It was not until bed time that she took the initiative to talk to Horace.
“Don’t.” Horace wanted to hug Clara. But as soon as he touched her wrist, Clara stopped him. Horace glanced at Clara and shook his head.
“Let go.” Her tone became colder. But Horace, who had been in the cruel business world for years, surely wouldn’t be intimidated by this. He shook his head and still held her tight.
Clara didn’t know what to do when she faced the bratty Horace. She could only ignored him, turned over and fell asleep.
Due to psychological reasons, Clara hadn’t slept well for days. But tonight, Clara slept very tight, perhaps because she felt the sense of security from Horace. When he got up the next morning, he still held Clara.
