Chapter 3

I touched my swollen face and couldn't help crying. I cried, "It took me an hour and a half to get to the company by bus. I get up at six in the morning every day and sometimes I am still late for work. Why shouldn't I find a nearby place?"

My uncle started to speak coldly, "Young lady, couldn't you bear such a little hardship? Look at your mother, she was busy all day and suffered so much. Why didn't you feel sorry for her at all?"

“Suffer? How dare he mention suffering? My mother bought his house and funded his marriage. He always asks my mother for money when he spends money. Why does he want me to suffer? Why?!"

I finally lost my temper and yelled at my uncle, "Did you ever feel bad for her? If you feel bad, don't ask her for money! You were a grown man! And you wanted me, your niece, to suffer to support your life! How could you be so shameless?!"

Two slaps hit my face hard. My mother's face turned red completely. "You! How dare you?! You have no manners. I will teach you a lesson today!" Then she rushed over and hit me several more times. My uncle folded just stood aside and laughed at me, "Well done, this girl will be out of control if we don't beat her up."

My aunt Debbie shook her head and said, "Lindsey spoiled her too much. If it were me, I would have beat all this temper out of her a long time ago."

Molly laughed and clapped. "That's right, she will never dare to spend our money next time!"

Josh only cared about his game. He didn't even look over here, but he kept asking, "Can you guys let her give me some money after this?"

My body hurt, and my face quickly became red and swollen, but at that moment, it was not only my face that hurt but my heart.

Once upon a time, I still had a little fantasy about my mother. I just felt that she was constrained by family affection and was excessively demanded by her mother and others. She might feel helpless and unwilling like I did.

But now, I understood everything. She did it voluntarily. She lived for my grandma, uncle, and the whole family. She is not a person. And she believed that I should be like her, follow her old path, and be willing to be exploited.

Of course, she didn't think she was being exploited, she thought it was a dedication to family affection.

Her dedication brought happiness to others and touched herself.

"Unfortunately, I am not her and will never become her."

"I took these slaps as a way of repaying her for giving birth to me." I thought that when she hit me.

When my mother saw that I didn't fight back, she came up to me pulled my hair, and pinched my face. I finally pushed her away hard. She staggered and fell on the sofa.

Rosemary screamed, "You dared to hit your mother, you were really rebellious!"

Before they had any further reaction, I grabbed my bag and rushed out the door.

This place was no longer my home! The people here were no longer my family!

"I will get them out of my life!"

After I rushed out of the door, I ran into fine rain. The rain fell coldly on my head and body, but my heart was a hundred or a thousand times colder than this.

My own family, my own mother, regarded me as their cash cow.

Apart from school uniforms, my mother had never bought me new clothes. Anytime, I asked for anything, even for the cheapest clothes or snacks, they would say that I didn't deserve it.

My mother even wanted me to drop out of high school and go to work. Fortunately, I had excellent grades. My school promised to waive all tuition and accommodation fees. She reluctantly agreed to let me continue studying.
