Chapter 103
So even though she heard such words, her heart could no longer stir up any waves.
Gianna looked at Dorothy expectantly, with a hint of worry that she might refuse. “Dorothy, I promise, once Rogelio has everything sorted out, we won’t bother you again.”
“You said the same thing last time.”
Dorothy calmly interrupted her mother’s words, the indifference in her demeanor making Gianna feel even more uneasy.
“Dorothy, are we really family? Is it necessary to separate so clearly?”
“Family?” Dorothy silently repeated these three words, trying to find the emotions and warmth she desired in the two words “family,” but unfortunately, she found none.
“The care you showed me from childhood to adulthood was not as much as that for my younger brother. You talk about being a family, but I feel like an outsider. I really don’t understand, if you only love my brother, then why didn’t you just kill me when I was the first born?”
“You are not like him!”
Gianna suddenly raised her voice, attracting the attention of all the customers in the restaurant.
Gianna realized her emotions were out of control, her face slightly pale. “Anyway, you’re not like your brother…”
Dorothy suddenly burst into laughter, her eyes crimson, “They are all your children, what’s different about them in the end?”
Gianna avoided her gaze and did not answer.
Not getting an answer, Dorothy also didn’t bother to ask further, after all, her mother’s attitude was already clear.
Maybe in this way, after two months, she could leave Dewbury without any worries or guilt?
Dorothy smiled to herself and, when the dishes were served, she didn’t even touch her chopsticks. She just drank the water in the cup on the table, got up, and said, “I’m giving you only two months. If Rogelio doesn’t pass the exam in two months, everything related to the Acosta family will have nothing to do with me.”
“At that time, whether you go to find Dwayne or anyone else, don’t come to me, because I won’t be found.”
Dorothy picked up her bag and left with a bitter smile.
Gianna stood still, not understanding the meaning of the last sentence she said, nor did she think much about it.
