Chapter 29 The Relationship
Charles Zhang returned to Josie again, when finding Josie didn't follow him. He was in front of her,
seeing her eyes were full of tears.
"Are you still thinking about that thing?" Charles enquired. He couldn't coax a girl.
Josie shook her head and looked towards the place where Eliza left.
Charles looked at Josie, and then he looked to the lighting house. It seemed there was a secret.
Did the secret connected with Josie?
"Mr. Zhang, I'd like to stay alone. You are recovering. You should take a break early. I'm sorry that you
accompany me so late." Josie explained.
"It does matter. There is a place to take a taxi near here. I'll go by myself. As a girl, you should go home
early. See you."
Charles waved his hand and prevented Josie from following him. Then he left.
Charles cared about Josie's safety. Because Josie was in her bad mood, he pretended left and
followed her quietly.
Then Charles saw Josie going to the lighting house.
It was one of the oldest parts of the city. As developing the city, people living here must be removed,
and this area must be rearranged.
Because of the demolition problem, the road in this area without electricity was dark. Charles followed
Josie carefully in case of being found.
When Josie went into the lighting house, Charles heard a shrill voice with the sound of glasses broken.
"You came back in time. You didn't dare come in until they had left? I think you don't want to come
back."
The door was opening. Charles saw a woman sitting on the chair who was simply dressed and looked
like Josie.
Was it Josie's mother?
Charles knew that Josie once studied at aboard. When she was studying in domestic, she should be in
a posh school, so she was Harry's classmate.
If she could afford the expensive tuition fees, her family should be rich.
But in this house, there were full of old furniture. A lighting candle on the old table was the only light
source in the house.
"I just arrived. Why not you call the police?" Josie's voice was shivering.
"Call the police? The police expect that we move here right now. It's your false that your father and I
were in such trouble." The woman hit her and said.
Josie didn't avoid the hit. Charles in the shadow almost rushed to protect her, but he perished the
thought: it was her business, and he would not like to be found.
"Give me money! Are you waiting for us in hunger?" The woman shouted at Josie when seeing Josie
didn't move. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Josie frowned: "I gave you the only 5000 RMB I had two days ago. It had gone?" Josie tried to calm her
down because the woman was her mother.
"Don't you know how much your father owe? The money you gave should pay his debt, or they will hurt
your father. I don't know how good your job is. Why don't you marry in Sun's family? If you agree, we
will be the rich, and it was worth that we sent you to study at aboard." The more saying, the angrier the
woman, and she pushed Josie very hard.
"You think you really could be the rich if I marry Harry? Don't you know what kind of man he is? You
want to kill my happiness?" when mentioned Sun's family, Josie was irritated.
Now, Charles realized the reason for tonight's trouble.
"No matter what will happen in the future. At present, if you agreed to marry Harry, we would not be
treated like this, and our compensation for demolition would not be too less than others. why you aren't
willing to make sacrifices for your parents?"
Josie stared at the woman. Was she her mother? It was incredible that her parents should regard her
as an instrument for gaining money.
Looking at Josie's emotion, the woman curse: "Don't stare at me. We, your parents, bring you up. Your
current job just earns little money. If you had brought a house, we would not have been threatened."
Then she began to cry as if Josie bullied her.
Charles, in the dark, sighed. But for that, the mother and the daughter resembled each other. He would
not be sure the woman was Josie's mother. Charles's parents, even though they were adoptive
parents, didn't let him suffer from injustice.
Charles despised Josie's parents in her mind.
Now, he was clear about the whole thing.
This area was in charge of Sun's family, which was one of the biggest real estate developers in the city.
By using his father's right, Harry forced Josie to marry him.
He must be a rat.
Josie saw her mother crying fiercely. She said softly: "You mean, if I marry Harry, you and my father
can have a good life, and I still your daughter. Right?"
Hearing Josie's words, the woman stopped crying.
At the moment, Charles stepped on something. A noise was rising in a quiet environment.
