Sarah did not expect to be the center of attention again over the weekend.However, she was also confused.Like all of her classmates, she could not figure out who had done it.Such a childish act was definitely not done by James.“Sarah, you know who’s the guy right? Tell us who he is. This guy is so sincere. Are you going to consider it?”“What a confession. If it were me, I’d say yes right away. Sarah, just say yes.”The girls in the crowd automatically and consciously imagined the man who hanged the couplet as a handsome and rich man.“Uh, what if he’s blind and crippled? I can’t simply say yes.” Sarah turned around and left after she was done speaking.Whoever he was, she could stop herself from loving anyone, but she could not stop others from loving her.There was nothing she could do except reject him.She could not control other people’s thoughts.However, when she was about to turn around, there was a stir behind her. “Look, Lamborghini! Oh my God! So handsome!”W
”Go get Ann.”“We’ll have dumplings to eat tonight!” Ann’s mother said.The dumplings Ann’s mother made would always be stuffed with extra meat filling, making it super delicious.Sarah headed toward the direction that led to Ann’s house, thinking to herself as to how she should plan on doing her revision on a daily basis before she sat for her senior year exam. She had achieved third place in the whole grade from her mock exam last week and she intended to fight her way to the first place in the next exam. That way, it would ensure a smooth path for her to apply for the ideal college and major. Buried deep in her thoughts, she felt a throbbing pain coming from the top of her head all of a sudden. Before she could respond, a burlap sack was thrown over her head and next thing she knew, she was being carried away. “Help! Help!” Sarah screamed at the top of her lungs.As she started screaming, a hand came shoving on her mouth against the sack to keep her from screaming, “Quiet,
Practically speaking, the person Sarah was the closest to among all those people here was her mother, Mandy York yet she was the one who treated her the cruelest.All Molly and Yam had was Mandy backing them up. There she went, giving her first slap to Mandy.That loud clap made the room go silent.One moment later, Mandy let out a sharp cry, “You’ve turned rebellious, Sarah. How dare you hit your own mother? I’ll beat the hell out of you, you ungrateful daughter! I’ll beat the hell out of you!”Mandy was about to hit Sarah back but was held back by Jimmy. “Let’s just get down to business, Mandy. Leave Sarah in this room.”Having been reminded by Jimmy, Mandy remembered that there was still something important to take care of.Burying her face in her hands, she ordered Molly and Yam, “Tie her up and put her to the bed. Tonight’s plan mustn't be ruined.”Sarah did not bother resisting and just allowed Molly and Yam tie her wrists together.She sneered, “I know what you guys ar
Sarah was not sure if James would even show up.Half an hour had gone by in the blink of an eye. When Sarah looked up to the window, the sky had completely been devoured by night. Then, the door was opened and the lights were switched on. Mandy was standing by the door with her hands over her belly. “Sarah, you evil witch! How dare you curse your own mother? Don’t you think you get to live on just fine when you’ve given me a terrible stomach ache.”As soon as she was done talking, she dashed her way in and threw a punch at Sarah down by her stomach. It hurt.Excruciatingly.Mandy brought her fist down as if she was a lunatic.Watching the sweat streaming down from her mother’s forehead, Sarah started laughing because she could imagine how much pain her mother was experiencing, which was exactly what she wanted.“You… How could you laugh? I’ll beat the shit out of you!”Another punch was thrown at Sarah over her stomach yet it still seemed like it was not enough to relieve
“Is this true?” Mandy’s expression was as if she had heard the tales from Arabian Nights.Sarah listened quietly. None of these cases she had treated had spread to the internet, and it had been a few days since Molly had been to the Marshall house.However, Molly knew about them so well.Someone clearly gave her the information.It was definitely someone from the Marshall family.Otherwise, outsiders would not know that Old Mistress Marshall and James were sick.Even though the people within the Marshall family fought to the death for the presidency of the Marshall Group, they would never reveal their family affairs. They did not want to wash their dirty linen in public.It was also not something that could be searched on the internet.“It’s true, Mum. If you don’t believe me, you can ask someone who lives in the mid-hill villa area to find out for yourself tomorrow.”“Do you think you can just contact someone in that neighborhood just because you want to? All of them are so r
She was washing herself up with fragrant body wash to make herself feel beautiful, so she could not even hear the shouts of Mandy and Yam.Before she reached the door of her own room, she saw Mandy and Yam rolling on the floor whereas Jimmy’s face was blue, and he was rubbing his forehead with his hand. She asked, “What’s going on?”“Little Molly, uncover the tape from her mouth and let her undo her witchcraft. If she doesn’t, just beat her to death,” Mandy grunted as she ordered Molly. She was in real pain.“Fine… Fine…” Molly became even more panicked when she felt that her period was about to overflow.Could it be that Sarah really knew how to do witchcraft as her mother had said?She hurriedly rushed over and removed the tape from Sarah’s mouth unwillingly.Sarah was finally able to speak. She took a deep breath and faintly looked at the four people in front of her. “You all deserve it.”They deserved the pain.“Sarah! You son of a b*tch! Undo your witchcraft immediately!”
However, Molly’s period came just because Sarah said so.She was going crazy.Molly was fiercely glaring at Sarah. She wanted to tear Sarah apart. It was Sarah who had ruined her plan.Sarah glanced at Molly and said, “You can’t blame me for this. You should blame Madam Mandy.”“What did you say?” Molly turned to look at Mandy in disbelief. “My mum won’t hurt me.”“Then you tell me. Who bought the lamb, fish roe, black-boned chicken, and pork loin for tonight? Didn’t Madam Mandy buy it?” Sarah laughed.“You… How did you know I bought all those?” Mandy did not believe it. She carried Sarah into this room together with Jimmy. When Mandy carried Sarah, she was still wrapped in a sack. She could not see the ingredients in the kitchen.“If you don’t want anyone to know, then don’t do it. There’s no impermeable wall in this world. Pay attention to the smell. Can’t you smell the tangy scent of mutton traveling into this room? It’s been so long and it’s still tangy.”After hearing that
In the room, four out of five people were panicking.Mandy could not care about her pain and jumped up all of a sudden. “Hurry up and cover her mouth. Molly, you quickly go back to your room.”“Heh, this is Molly’s room.” Sarah faintly stared at the four people who were panicking. She was the calmest at that moment.The doorbell rang just in time.She was initially worried that James would not come, but he did without hesitation.A text message from her, and he dropped everything and went right over.When she thought of this, her heart warmed up and she felt unafraid of anything.“Sarah, you shut up. This is your room and the one you have is mine.” Molly tore another piece of tape and put it on Sarah’s mouth. She then turned around and rushed outside. She wanted to change her pad.Mandy also struggled to rush out the door.When she did, Jimmy and Yam also hurried out in pain.It was instantly dark again in Molly’s room.However, Sarah was not panicking at all at that moment.
