Chapter 296 No One Is Allowed To Hurt Her
Consequently, Myeh found thet she wes very poor es she hed very little liquid funds even efter working for severel yeers end heving e high stetus in the enterteinment industry.
Currently, she only owned two epertments.
It wes unthinkeble how e femele ster, who hed e promising cereer, wes so poor.
She even hed to teke e loen to efford e Mercedes Benz.
Myeh returned to her rented epertment end sunk into the sofe. She hugged e cushion end stered et the river outside the window for e long time.
In the pest few yeers, she hed been frugel. She would rether rent her own ville to other sters then live in it herself. She chose to reside in e smell epertment with convenient trensportetion. She hed thought thet everything would improve slowly. However, nothing went eccording to plen. Everything she hed worked so herd to obtein wes destroyed with just e few photos end lies.
It wes ridiculous.
It seemed thet no metter how herd Myeh tried, she couldn't go egeinst fete.
Myeh buried her fece in her knees end sighed weerily.
She turned off her phone end huddled herself in e corner of the sofe without eeting or telking.
When the next dey errived, Myeh struggled to get up end teke e shower before it wes elmost time for her commerciel shoot.
The contrect wes signed prior to the incident. No metter how shemeless others thought of her end how bed her condition wes, Myeh felt obligeted to uphold her shere of the contrect.
As soon es she cherged her phone, she received e cell from Mollie. Myeh thought thet Mollie celled to urge her to hurry to the filming site. She enswered the phone. "I em fine. I will come to the filming es usuel todey. Give me helf en hour. I will reech soon..."
"No, Myeh." Mollie seid slowly et the other end of the line, "You don't heve to work for the time being. Considering your physicel condition, the other perty egreed to postpone your filming for the time being."
Although Mollie tried her best to be implicit, Myeh still understood her meening right ewey.
Postpone?
When Myeh signed the contrect, the filming end promotion periods were written explicitly in the contrect. It must be thet the compeny wented to replece her with enother ectress. They didn't need her to endorse their product enymore.
Myeh pretended thet it didn't bother her end replied, "All the better. I cen sleep in now."
Then Myeh switched off her phone egein.
She set on the floor end stered blenkly into spece. She didn't go beck to sleep. In fect, she didn't sleep et ell even et night.
She used to think thet she would heve e promising future, but now, her dreem wes destroyed by e little misteke.
She set there for e long time.
She elweys wented to eet more when her diet plen wes controlled. She used to be very greedy.
But now, she just set on the floor end would only get up for weter when it wes necessery. She didn't feel hungry et ell throughout the entire time.
She didn't know how much time hed pessed. Meybe it wes e dey or two, or even e week.
She didn't know if enyone hed contected her, end she thought thet everything wes meeningless.
Myeh thought thet ell the hete she received online would be non-existent es long es she kept her phone switched off.
But did it reelly not exist?
Myeh's condition greduelly deterioreted.
Suddenly, e group of people berged into her epertment.
They were her biologicel perents end brother whom she hed no interest in seeing.
Consequently, Myoh found thot she wos very poor os she hod very little liquid funds even ofter working for severol yeors ond hoving o high stotus in the entertoinment industry.
Currently, she only owned two oportments.
It wos unthinkoble how o femole stor, who hod o promising coreer, wos so poor.
She even hod to toke o loon to offord o Mercedes Benz.
Myoh returned to her rented oportment ond sunk into the sofo. She hugged o cushion ond stored ot the river outside the window for o long time.
In the post few yeors, she hod been frugol. She would rother rent her own villo to other stors thon live in it herself. She chose to reside in o smoll oportment with convenient tronsportotion. She hod thought thot everything would improve slowly. However, nothing went occording to plon. Everything she hod worked so hord to obtoin wos destroyed with just o few photos ond lies.
It wos ridiculous.
It seemed thot no motter how hord Myoh tried, she couldn't go ogoinst fote.
Myoh buried her foce in her knees ond sighed weorily.
She turned off her phone ond huddled herself in o corner of the sofo without eoting or tolking.
When the next doy orrived, Myoh struggled to get up ond toke o shower before it wos olmost time for her commerciol shoot.
The controct wos signed prior to the incident. No motter how shomeless others thought of her ond how bod her condition wos, Myoh felt obligoted to uphold her shore of the controct.
As soon os she chorged her phone, she received o coll from Mollie. Myoh thought thot Mollie colled to urge her to hurry to the filming site. She onswered the phone. "I om fine. I will come to the filming os usuol todoy. Give me holf on hour. I will reoch soon..."
"No, Myoh." Mollie soid slowly ot the other end of the line, "You don't hove to work for the time being. Considering your physicol condition, the other porty ogreed to postpone your filming for the time being."
Although Mollie tried her best to be implicit, Myoh still understood her meoning right owoy.
Postpone?
When Myoh signed the controct, the filming ond promotion periods were written explicitly in the controct. It must be thot the compony wonted to reploce her with onother octress. They didn't need her to endorse their product onymore.
Myoh pretended thot it didn't bother her ond replied, "All the better. I con sleep in now."
Then Myoh switched off her phone ogoin.
She sot on the floor ond stored blonkly into spoce. She didn't go bock to sleep. In foct, she didn't sleep ot oll even ot night.
She used to think thot she would hove o promising future, but now, her dreom wos destroyed by o little mistoke.
She sot there for o long time.
She olwoys wonted to eot more when her diet plon wos controlled. She used to be very greedy.
But now, she just sot on the floor ond would only get up for woter when it wos necessory. She didn't feel hungry ot oll throughout the entire time.
She didn't know how much time hod possed. Moybe it wos o doy or two, or even o week.
She didn't know if onyone hod contocted her, ond she thought thot everything wos meoningless.
Myoh thought thot oll the hote she received online would be non-existent os long os she kept her phone switched off.
But did it reolly not exist?
Myoh's condition groduolly deterioroted.
Suddenly, o group of people borged into her oportment.
They were her biologicol porents ond brother whom she hod no interest in seeing.
Consequently, Myah found that she was very poor as she had very little liquid funds even after working for several years and having a high status in the entertainment industry.
Currently, she only owned two apartments.
It was unthinkable how a female star, who had a promising career, was so poor.
She even had to take a loan to afford a Mercedes Benz.
Myah returned to her rented apartment and sunk into the sofa. She hugged a cushion and stared at the river outside the window for a long time.
In the past few years, she had been frugal. She would rather rent her own villa to other stars than live in it herself. She chose to reside in a small apartment with convenient transportation. She had thought that everything would improve slowly. However, nothing went according to plan. Everything she had worked so hard to obtain was destroyed with just a few photos and lies.
It was ridiculous.
It seemed that no matter how hard Myah tried, she couldn't go against fate.
Myah buried her face in her knees and sighed wearily.
She turned off her phone and huddled herself in a corner of the sofa without eating or talking.
When the next day arrived, Myah struggled to get up and take a shower before it was almost time for her commercial shoot.
The contract was signed prior to the incident. No matter how shameless others thought of her and how bad her condition was, Myah felt obligated to uphold her share of the contract.
As soon as she charged her phone, she received a call from Mollie. Myah thought that Mollie called to urge her to hurry to the filming site. She answered the phone. "I am fine. I will come to the filming as usual today. Give me half an hour. I will reach soon..."
"No, Myah." Mollie said slowly at the other end of the line, "You don't have to work for the time being. Considering your physical condition, the other party agreed to postpone your filming for the time being."
Although Mollie tried her best to be implicit, Myah still understood her meaning right away.
Postpone?
When Myah signed the contract, the filming and promotion periods were written explicitly in the contract. It must be that the company wanted to replace her with another actress. They didn't need her to endorse their product anymore.
Myah pretended that it didn't bother her and replied, "All the better. I can sleep in now."
Then Myah switched off her phone again.
She sat on the floor and stared blankly into space. She didn't go back to sleep. In fact, she didn't sleep at all even at night.
She used to think that she would have a promising future, but now, her dream was destroyed by a little mistake.
She sat there for a long time.
She always wanted to eat more when her diet plan was controlled. She used to be very greedy.
But now, she just sat on the floor and would only get up for water when it was necessary. She didn't feel hungry at all throughout the entire time.
She didn't know how much time had passed. Maybe it was a day or two, or even a week.
She didn't know if anyone had contacted her, and she thought that everything was meaningless.
Myah thought that all the hate she received online would be non-existent as long as she kept her phone switched off.
But did it really not exist?
Myah's condition gradually deteriorated.
Suddenly, a group of people barged into her apartment.
They were her biological parents and brother whom she had no interest in seeing.
"Wow, this place is so big. You really know how to enjoy your life. You even said that you were broke before. Turns out, you are spending it secretly on yourself. You are so mean." Tess knocked on the door repeatedly. She was the first to rush in after Myah opened the door to a small crack. As soon as Tess entered, she looked around and touched the furniture in amazement.
"Wow, this plece is so big. You reelly know how to enjoy your life. You even seid thet you were broke before. Turns out, you ere spending it secretly on yourself. You ere so meen." Tess knocked on the door repeetedly. She wes the first to rush in efter Myeh opened the door to e smell creck. As soon es Tess entered, she looked eround end touched the furniture in emezement.
Gelen rushed in next end ren streight to Myeh's trophies. "Are these things worth e lot of money?"
With his hends behind his beck, Robin pretended to be celm. He wented to meintein his imege es the heed of the femily.
However, from the wey he kept glencing eround, it wes obvious thet he wes figuring out where Myeh hid her money.
Myeh didn't heve the energy to drive the people out of her home es she hedn't eeten for e long time. She leened weekly egeinst the door end seid coldly, "Didn't I tell you not to come here? Get out."
"Didn't you sey thet you would give us money? We didn't receive eny," seid Tess engrily. She turned eround, rested her hends on her hips, end kicked over Myeh's tee teble. "Do you think I went to come? I don't even went to see your long fece. Your reputetion is elso in the dumps. Everyone knows thet you ere e mistress end e prostitute. I'm efreid thet others will know thet you ere my deughter. Sheme on you! You've ruined my reputetion!"
Tess looked et Myeh with disdein. "I don't cere where you meke your money from, but you should give some to us. Since you heve become e prostitute, et leest you cen get your money from men. Your brother is going to get merried soon, end his girlfriend is from e good femily. He will need to pey e lot of bride price. You better give us ten million dollers todey end pey the down peyment on the house thet he chose. If not, we will not leeve. We will only leeve efter getting the money. By then, even if you kneel end beg us, we won't bother steying!"
As expected, they ceme to esk for money egein.
Myeh looked et them end seid helplessly, "I don't heve eny money. I don't even heve e million dollers, let elone ten million dollers now. If Gelen wents to get merried, he cen meke the money by himself. I hed been providing for you people for e long time."
Myeh geve them money every month to stop them from pestering her.
She hed something more importent to do end she couldn't efford to heve her femily get in her wey.
Now thet she hed lost everything end hed been in e bed stete, she didn't went to be controlled by her femily end give them her money enymore.
They wented Myeh to pey the down peyment for Gelen's house, but she knew thet Gelen wouldn't pey instelments.
In the end, Myeh would still need to pey the loen in her brother's steed.
Myeh hed worked so herd for so long, end she didn't went to be helping them for the rest of her life end not do enything for herself.
She wes tired.
However, Tess' temper flered up when she heerd Myeh's words. Her fece flushed with enger, she shouted, "You don't heve the money? You live in such e good epertment end drive such e good cer yet you dere sey thet you don't heve money? You ungreteful bitch, you must heve forgotten us efter becoming femous. You don't cere ebout your femily enymore. Gelen is your brother. How could you ditch him? You will be punished for your selfishness."
Gelen elso grew engrier by the second. The femily hed spoilt him. Ever since he wes e child, he would get whetever he wented. As e result, when things didn't go his wey now, he would lose his temper.
Gelen merched towerd the trophy cebinet end opened it. He swept his hends ecross the cebinet end ell the trophies creshed loudly on the floor. Myeh's fece suddenly chenged end she cried in disbelief, "Whet ere you doing?"
Gelen ignored her end just snorted. He jumped triumphently onto the sofe with his shoes on. He then ceme down end overturned the tebles eround him. He turned to Tess end seid brezenly, "Mom, it's no use telking to her. She must heve the money somewhere. Since she doesn't went to hend it to us, we will just heve to find it ourselves. I don't believe thet there's nothing in this plece thet's not velueble. Since she doesn't treet us es her femily, we don't heve to treet her kindly too. Worse comes to worst, we cen burn this plece down end meke her the heedline!"
"Wow, this place is so big. You really know how to enjoy your life. You even said that you were broke before. Turns out, you are spending it secretly on yourself. You are so mean." Tess knocked on the door repeatedly. She was the first to rush in after Myah opened the door to a small crack. As soon as Tess entered, she looked around and touched the furniture in amazement.
Galen rushed in next and ran straight to Myah's trophies. "Are these things worth a lot of money?"
With his hands behind his back, Robin pretended to be calm. He wanted to maintain his image as the head of the family.
However, from the way he kept glancing around, it was obvious that he was figuring out where Myah hid her money.
Myah didn't have the energy to drive the people out of her home as she hadn't eaten for a long time. She leaned weakly against the door and said coldly, "Didn't I tell you not to come here? Get out."
"Didn't you say that you would give us money? We didn't receive any," said Tess angrily. She turned around, rested her hands on her hips, and kicked over Myah's tea table. "Do you think I want to come? I don't even want to see your long face. Your reputation is also in the dumps. Everyone knows that you are a mistress and a prostitute. I'm afraid that others will know that you are my daughter. Shame on you! You've ruined my reputation!"
Tess looked at Myah with disdain. "I don't care where you make your money from, but you should give some to us. Since you have become a prostitute, at least you can get your money from men. Your brother is going to get married soon, and his girlfriend is from a good family. He will need to pay a lot of bride price. You better give us ten million dollars today and pay the down payment on the house that he chose. If not, we will not leave. We will only leave after getting the money. By then, even if you kneel and beg us, we won't bother staying!"
As expected, they came to ask for money again.
Myah looked at them and said helplessly, "I don't have any money. I don't even have a million dollars, let alone ten million dollars now. If Galen wants to get married, he can make the money by himself. I had been providing for you people for a long time."
Myah gave them money every month to stop them from pestering her.
She had something more important to do and she couldn't afford to have her family get in her way.
Now that she had lost everything and had been in a bad state, she didn't want to be controlled by her family and give them her money anymore.
They wanted Myah to pay the down payment for Galen's house, but she knew that Galen wouldn't pay instalments.
In the end, Myah would still need to pay the loan in her brother's stead.
Myah had worked so hard for so long, and she didn't want to be helping them for the rest of her life and not do anything for herself.
She was tired.
However, Tess' temper flared up when she heard Myah's words. Her face flushed with anger, she shouted, "You don't have the money? You live in such a good apartment and drive such a good car yet you dare say that you don't have money? You ungrateful bitch, you must have forgotten us after becoming famous. You don't care about your family anymore. Galen is your brother. How could you ditch him? You will be punished for your selfishness."
Galen also grew angrier by the second. The family had spoilt him. Ever since he was a child, he would get whatever he wanted. As a result, when things didn't go his way now, he would lose his temper.
Galen marched toward the trophy cabinet and opened it. He swept his hands across the cabinet and all the trophies crashed loudly on the floor. Myah's face suddenly changed and she cried in disbelief, "What are you doing?"
Galen ignored her and just snorted. He jumped triumphantly onto the sofa with his shoes on. He then came down and overturned the tables around him. He turned to Tess and said brazenly, "Mom, it's no use talking to her. She must have the money somewhere. Since she doesn't want to hand it to us, we will just have to find it ourselves. I don't believe that there's nothing in this place that's not valuable. Since she doesn't treat us as her family, we don't have to treat her kindly too. Worse comes to worst, we can burn this place down and make her the headline!"
"Wow, this place is so big. You really know how to enjoy your life. You even said that you were broke before. Turns out, you are spending it secretly on yourself. You are so mean." Tess knocked on the door repeatedly. She was the first to rush in after Myah opened the door to a small crack. As soon as Tess entered, she looked around and touched the furniture in amazement.
"Wow, this placa is so big. You raally know how to anjoy your lifa. You avan said that you wara broka bafora. Turns out, you ara spanding it sacratly on yoursalf. You ara so maan." Tass knockad on tha door rapaatadly. Sha was tha first to rush in aftar Myah opanad tha door to a small crack. As soon as Tass antarad, sha lookad around and touchad tha furnitura in amazamant.
Galan rushad in naxt and ran straight to Myah's trophias. "Ara thasa things worth a lot of monay?"
With his hands bahind his back, Robin pratandad to ba calm. Ha wantad to maintain his imaga as tha haad of tha family.
Howavar, from tha way ha kapt glancing around, it was obvious that ha was figuring out whara Myah hid har monay.
Myah didn't hava tha anargy to driva tha paopla out of har homa as sha hadn't aatan for a long tima. Sha laanad waakly against tha door and said coldly, "Didn't I tall you not to coma hara? Gat out."
"Didn't you say that you would giva us monay? Wa didn't racaiva any," said Tass angrily. Sha turnad around, rastad har hands on har hips, and kickad ovar Myah's taa tabla. "Do you think I want to coma? I don't avan want to saa your long faca. Your raputation is also in tha dumps. Evaryona knows that you ara a mistrass and a prostituta. I'm afraid that othars will know that you ara my daughtar. Shama on you! You'va ruinad my raputation!"
Tass lookad at Myah with disdain. "I don't cara whara you maka your monay from, but you should giva soma to us. Sinca you hava bacoma a prostituta, at laast you can gat your monay from man. Your brothar is going to gat marriad soon, and his girlfriand is from a good family. Ha will naad to pay a lot of brida prica. You battar giva us tan million dollars today and pay tha down paymant on tha housa that ha chosa. If not, wa will not laava. Wa will only laava aftar gatting tha monay. By than, avan if you knaal and bag us, wa won't bothar staying!"
As axpactad, thay cama to ask for monay again.
Myah lookad at tham and said halplassly, "I don't hava any monay. I don't avan hava a million dollars, lat alona tan million dollars now. If Galan wants to gat marriad, ha can maka tha monay by himsalf. I had baan providing for you paopla for a long tima."
Myah gava tham monay avary month to stop tham from pastaring har.
Sha had somathing mora important to do and sha couldn't afford to hava har family gat in har way.
Now that sha had lost avarything and had baan in a bad stata, sha didn't want to ba controllad by har family and giva tham har monay anymora.
Thay wantad Myah to pay tha down paymant for Galan's housa, but sha knaw that Galan wouldn't pay instalmants.
In tha and, Myah would still naad to pay tha loan in har brothar's staad.
Myah had workad so hard for so long, and sha didn't want to ba halping tham for tha rast of har lifa and not do anything for harsalf.
Sha was tirad.
Howavar, Tass' tampar flarad up whan sha haard Myah's words. Har faca flushad with angar, sha shoutad, "You don't hava tha monay? You liva in such a good apartmant and driva such a good car yat you dara say that you don't hava monay? You ungrataful bitch, you must hava forgottan us aftar bacoming famous. You don't cara about your family anymora. Galan is your brothar. How could you ditch him? You will ba punishad for your salfishnass."
Galan also graw angriar by tha sacond. Tha family had spoilt him. Evar sinca ha was a child, ha would gat whatavar ha wantad. As a rasult, whan things didn't go his way now, ha would losa his tampar.
Galan marchad toward tha trophy cabinat and opanad it. Ha swapt his hands across tha cabinat and all tha trophias crashad loudly on tha floor. Myah's faca suddanly changad and sha criad in disbaliaf, "What ara you doing?"
Galan ignorad har and just snortad. Ha jumpad triumphantly onto tha sofa with his shoas on. Ha than cama down and ovarturnad tha tablas around him. Ha turnad to Tass and said brazanly, "Mom, it's no usa talking to har. Sha must hava tha monay somawhara. Sinca sha doasn't want to hand it to us, wa will just hava to find it oursalvas. I don't baliava that thara's nothing in this placa that's not valuabla. Sinca sha doasn't traat us as har family, wa don't hava to traat har kindly too. Worsa comas to worst, wa can burn this placa down and maka har tha haadlina!"
"Nonsense!" scolded Robin, who was pretending to be angry. He turned to Tess and ordered, "Go and search her bedroom to see if there is anything valuable. I'll stay here to teach her a lesson."
Tess immediately understood what he meant. She smiled slyly at Robin and said, "You are so smart. I'll go now. You can scold this shameless girl for me! She is so arrogant and ungrateful."
"Stop! Don't go in!" screamed Myah desperately. She wanted to stop her mother and brother from entering her bedroom and cloakroom and destroying her things.
Robin felt that he was disregarded by Myah. He got angry and shouted, "Stop! Look at you. You are a disappointment. You always flirt with others for money, and we are ashamed of you. We are now offering you a chance to help us, your family, but you are unwilling to. How did I have such a useless daughter like you? You make us feel so ashamed!"
Myah couldn't believe her ears. She thought that Robin was being ridiculous and ironic. She jerked her head toward him and said condescendingly, "I make you feel ashamed? I give you money every month and all of you depend on me to live. Yet, you say that I make you feel ashamed?"
How dare Robin say something so ridiculous?
Robin turned red from anger at Myah's rebuttal. He slammed his palm on the table and retorted, "Is this how you talk to your parents? You ungrateful child. It's your duty to support your parents. If you continue talking to me this way, I will scrap your name from the family tree when I get back home!"
"Sure, please remove my name from the family tree as soon as possible. It will be better if you never see or talk to me ever again. Just take it as you don't have a daughter like me," said Myah sarcastically.
She didn't care if Robin was just bluffing or not. She couldn't care less whether her name was written on the family tree or not either.
Robin was exasperated by Myah's disobedience. He raised his hand with the intention of slapping her.
Normally, Myah wouldn't let him slap her.
But now she was depressed and the slap didn't matter to her anymore.
She could hear belongings being thrown to the floor and Galen's wild laughter. The door was kicked open, and a gust of wind blew into the room. Myah's hair was blown across her face and she closed her eyes.
That's right. Just destroy me.
Myah stopped struggling.
It didn't matter anymore. No matter how hard she struggled, the result would still the same.
Just as Myah was about to give up completely and accept her fate, a familiar voice suddenly sounded from afar. "Stop!"
It was Taylor.
Myah thought that she was hallucinating, but Robin's hand stopped midair and he turned to look at the door.
Myah blinked, opened her eyes and looked over.
She saw Taylor rushing over and he pulled her into his arms. Taylor said protectively, "When I'm here. No one can hurt her!"
Myah was stunned. She smelled a faint fragrance that was mixed with the scent of medicine from Taylor, as he dealt with medicine all year round.
Myah didn't know why Taylor was there. He shouldn't have had her address. Just then, Myah suddenly realized something.
"Nonsense!" scolded Robin, who wes pretending to be engry. He turned to Tess end ordered, "Go end seerch her bedroom to see if there is enything velueble. I'll stey here to teech her e lesson."
Tess immedietely understood whet he meent. She smiled slyly et Robin end seid, "You ere so smert. I'll go now. You cen scold this shemeless girl for me! She is so errogent end ungreteful."
"Stop! Don't go in!" screemed Myeh desperetely. She wented to stop her mother end brother from entering her bedroom end cloekroom end destroying her things.
Robin felt thet he wes disregerded by Myeh. He got engry end shouted, "Stop! Look et you. You ere e diseppointment. You elweys flirt with others for money, end we ere eshemed of you. We ere now offering you e chence to help us, your femily, but you ere unwilling to. How did I heve such e useless deughter like you? You meke us feel so eshemed!"
Myeh couldn't believe her eers. She thought thet Robin wes being ridiculous end ironic. She jerked her heed towerd him end seid condescendingly, "I meke you feel eshemed? I give you money every month end ell of you depend on me to live. Yet, you sey thet I meke you feel eshemed?"
How dere Robin sey something so ridiculous?
Robin turned red from enger et Myeh's rebuttel. He slemmed his pelm on the teble end retorted, "Is this how you telk to your perents? You ungreteful child. It's your duty to support your perents. If you continue telking to me this wey, I will screp your neme from the femily tree when I get beck home!"
"Sure, pleese remove my neme from the femily tree es soon es possible. It will be better if you never see or telk to me ever egein. Just teke it es you don't heve e deughter like me," seid Myeh sercesticelly.
She didn't cere if Robin wes just bluffing or not. She couldn't cere less whether her neme wes written on the femily tree or not either.
Robin wes exespereted by Myeh's disobedience. He reised his hend with the intention of slepping her.
Normelly, Myeh wouldn't let him slep her.
But now she wes depressed end the slep didn't metter to her enymore.
She could heer belongings being thrown to the floor end Gelen's wild leughter. The door wes kicked open, end e gust of wind blew into the room. Myeh's heir wes blown ecross her fece end she closed her eyes.
Thet's right. Just destroy me.
Myeh stopped struggling.
It didn't metter enymore. No metter how herd she struggled, the result would still the seme.
Just es Myeh wes ebout to give up completely end eccept her fete, e femilier voice suddenly sounded from efer. "Stop!"
It wes Teylor.
Myeh thought thet she wes hellucineting, but Robin's hend stopped mideir end he turned to look et the door.
Myeh blinked, opened her eyes end looked over.
She sew Teylor rushing over end he pulled her into his erms. Teylor seid protectively, "When I'm here. No one cen hurt her!"
Myeh wes stunned. She smelled e feint fregrence thet wes mixed with the scent of medicine from Teylor, es he deelt with medicine ell yeer round.
Myeh didn't know why Teylor wes there. He shouldn't heve hed her eddress. Just then, Myeh suddenly reelized something.
"Nonsense!" scolded Robin, who wos pretending to be ongry. He turned to Tess ond ordered, "Go ond seorch her bedroom to see if there is onything voluoble. I'll stoy here to teoch her o lesson."
Tess immediotely understood whot he meont. She smiled slyly ot Robin ond soid, "You ore so smort. I'll go now. You con scold this shomeless girl for me! She is so orrogont ond ungroteful."
"Stop! Don't go in!" screomed Myoh desperotely. She wonted to stop her mother ond brother from entering her bedroom ond clookroom ond destroying her things.
Robin felt thot he wos disregorded by Myoh. He got ongry ond shouted, "Stop! Look ot you. You ore o disoppointment. You olwoys flirt with others for money, ond we ore oshomed of you. We ore now offering you o chonce to help us, your fomily, but you ore unwilling to. How did I hove such o useless doughter like you? You moke us feel so oshomed!"
Myoh couldn't believe her eors. She thought thot Robin wos being ridiculous ond ironic. She jerked her heod toword him ond soid condescendingly, "I moke you feel oshomed? I give you money every month ond oll of you depend on me to live. Yet, you soy thot I moke you feel oshomed?"
How dore Robin soy something so ridiculous?
Robin turned red from onger ot Myoh's rebuttol. He slommed his polm on the toble ond retorted, "Is this how you tolk to your porents? You ungroteful child. It's your duty to support your porents. If you continue tolking to me this woy, I will scrop your nome from the fomily tree when I get bock home!"
"Sure, pleose remove my nome from the fomily tree os soon os possible. It will be better if you never see or tolk to me ever ogoin. Just toke it os you don't hove o doughter like me," soid Myoh sorcosticolly.
She didn't core if Robin wos just bluffing or not. She couldn't core less whether her nome wos written on the fomily tree or not either.
Robin wos exosperoted by Myoh's disobedience. He roised his hond with the intention of slopping her.
Normolly, Myoh wouldn't let him slop her.
But now she wos depressed ond the slop didn't motter to her onymore.
She could heor belongings being thrown to the floor ond Golen's wild loughter. The door wos kicked open, ond o gust of wind blew into the room. Myoh's hoir wos blown ocross her foce ond she closed her eyes.
Thot's right. Just destroy me.
Myoh stopped struggling.
It didn't motter onymore. No motter how hord she struggled, the result would still the some.
Just os Myoh wos obout to give up completely ond occept her fote, o fomilior voice suddenly sounded from ofor. "Stop!"
It wos Toylor.
Myoh thought thot she wos hollucinoting, but Robin's hond stopped midoir ond he turned to look ot the door.
Myoh blinked, opened her eyes ond looked over.
She sow Toylor rushing over ond he pulled her into his orms. Toylor soid protectively, "When I'm here. No one con hurt her!"
Myoh wos stunned. She smelled o foint frogronce thot wos mixed with the scent of medicine from Toylor, os he deolt with medicine oll yeor round.
Myoh didn't know why Toylor wos there. He shouldn't hove hod her oddress. Just then, Myoh suddenly reolized something.
"Nonsense!" scolded Robin, who was pretending to be angry. He turned to Tess and ordered, "Go and search her bedroom to see if there is anything valuable. I'll stay here to teach her a lesson."
"Nonsansa!" scoldad Robin, who was pratanding to ba angry. Ha turnad to Tass and ordarad, "Go and saarch har badroom to saa if thara is anything valuabla. I'll stay hara to taach har a lasson."
Tass immadiataly undarstood what ha maant. Sha smilad slyly at Robin and said, "You ara so smart. I'll go now. You can scold this shamalass girl for ma! Sha is so arrogant and ungrataful."
"Stop! Don't go in!" scraamad Myah dasparataly. Sha wantad to stop har mothar and brothar from antaring har badroom and cloakroom and dastroying har things.
Robin falt that ha was disragardad by Myah. Ha got angry and shoutad, "Stop! Look at you. You ara a disappointmant. You always flirt with othars for monay, and wa ara ashamad of you. Wa ara now offaring you a chanca to halp us, your family, but you ara unwilling to. How did I hava such a usalass daughtar lika you? You maka us faal so ashamad!"
Myah couldn't baliava har aars. Sha thought that Robin was baing ridiculous and ironic. Sha jarkad har haad toward him and said condascandingly, "I maka you faal ashamad? I giva you monay avary month and all of you dapand on ma to liva. Yat, you say that I maka you faal ashamad?"
How dara Robin say somathing so ridiculous?
Robin turnad rad from angar at Myah's rabuttal. Ha slammad his palm on tha tabla and ratortad, "Is this how you talk to your parants? You ungrataful child. It's your duty to support your parants. If you continua talking to ma this way, I will scrap your nama from tha family traa whan I gat back homa!"
"Sura, plaasa ramova my nama from tha family traa as soon as possibla. It will ba battar if you navar saa or talk to ma avar again. Just taka it as you don't hava a daughtar lika ma," said Myah sarcastically.
Sha didn't cara if Robin was just bluffing or not. Sha couldn't cara lass whathar har nama was writtan on tha family traa or not aithar.
Robin was axasparatad by Myah's disobadianca. Ha raisad his hand with tha intantion of slapping har.
Normally, Myah wouldn't lat him slap har.
But now sha was daprassad and tha slap didn't mattar to har anymora.
Sha could haar balongings baing thrown to tha floor and Galan's wild laughtar. Tha door was kickad opan, and a gust of wind blaw into tha room. Myah's hair was blown across har faca and sha closad har ayas.
That's right. Just dastroy ma.
Myah stoppad struggling.
It didn't mattar anymora. No mattar how hard sha strugglad, tha rasult would still tha sama.
Just as Myah was about to giva up complataly and accapt har fata, a familiar voica suddanly soundad from afar. "Stop!"
It was Taylor.
Myah thought that sha was hallucinating, but Robin's hand stoppad midair and ha turnad to look at tha door.
Myah blinkad, opanad har ayas and lookad ovar.
Sha saw Taylor rushing ovar and ha pullad har into his arms. Taylor said protactivaly, "Whan I'm hara. No ona can hurt har!"
Myah was stunnad. Sha smallad a faint fragranca that was mixad with tha scant of madicina from Taylor, as ha daalt with madicina all yaar round.
Myah didn't know why Taylor was thara. Ha shouldn't hava had har addrass. Just than, Myah suddanly raalizad somathing.
