He looked at me and accused me in despair, “Why aren’t you crying? Your mom always dotes on you the most.”

Placing chrysanthemums in front of my mother’s grave, I looked at her portrait and said softly, “You cried so sadly; if you were so sad, why didn’t you follow my mother?”

“You!”

My father glared at me angrily and impatiently said, “Just asked you to carry a pot, what’s the big deal? Why are you still holding a grudge against me? Look at you, you’re fine now, and Reynaldo didn’t do anything to you, did he? Ralda, no matter what, I am still your father. Now that your mother is gone, the three of us should love and support each other.”

I lowered my head and tugged at my lips, feeling extremely sarcastic in my heart, but in front of me was a mist of bitterness. Why was the person who died my mother? Why?!

“Ralda, your mother left so early; from now on I am the closest person to you in this world. You must take good care of me in the future, and try to get some money from Reynaldo for me when you have the chance.” This man, no matter how crazy he loved when he was young, when he reaches a certain age, he still can’t resist the temptation from outside and cheats.

“Making money is the most practical thing. Don’t worry, I will save all the money you make for you.”

“Enough!” Quentin coldly interrupted him, lamenting, “Don’t say these nonsense words in front of my mother’s grave. Do you want my mother to rest in peace?”

“Hehe, nonsense? I’m laughing to death. When you helped that woman frame Ralda, why didn’t you think you were being foolish? And also, I was teaching Ralda the ways of survival and making a living, so don’t interrupt.”

“What way of making a fortune? You just treated Ralda as an ATM. As Ralda said, you are really unworthy of being a father!” Quentin said, pulling my arm worriedly, “Ralda, don’t listen to him. Even though Mom is gone now, you still have me. I will take care of you.” As for his father, who disowned his own family, let’s just forget about him.

“You little rabbit, how dare you say such words in front of your mother’s grave. I think you are the one who truly doesn’t want your mother to rest in peace.”

I quietly looked at the portrait of my mother, my heart filled with sorrow. Originally, when a person was so grief-stricken that not a single tear could be shed, not a single word wanted to be spoken.

My dad argued with Quentin for a while before finally stopping. I paid no attention to what they were arguing about, just silently staring at the portrait of my mom. After the funeral, I slowly stood up, but because I had been kneeling for too long, my legs and feet were completely numb.

I staggered for a moment, almost falling, but luckily Vonnie quickly caught me. Quentin looked at me with concern and said, “Ralda, come back with me. I will take care of you.”

My father disapproved and said, “What’s the point of going back with you? If she wants to go back, she will go back to Reynaldo. Take advantage of the fact that Reynaldo still has some feelings for her and go make some money. When Reynaldo got tired of her novelty, she wouldn’t be able to get anything, thanks to that.”

After hearing this, Quentin was so angry that he trembled all over and said, “What do you take Ralda for? How could you become like this?”
