Become Filthy Rich After Divorce
Chapter 364 Emma's wretchedness.

But for so many years, she was not the liking of anyone in the Collins family, and now even if she is not willing, she can only be in this place.

It is absolutely impossible to go back.

At this point, Lois sees this all too clearly.

And Emma, when she heard this from Lois, her heart choked and smothered with pain.

"There's no way out." Under her eyes, too, was all hatred.

Looking at Alina on the TV, the hatred in her eyes was overwhelming.

So, there's no way to bring down Alina in this lifetime, is that right?

The resignation in Emma's heart flooded her even more like a tidal wave.

"Emma, help me to the field." Shouts from the villagers came from outside.

The sound of it was so distasteful to her now.

Ever since she was a child, she had worked like mad to get rid of it all, how could it come back now?

How did she get back?

"Go on." Lois said as she looked at Emma.

Emma, "What can I do in the field?" She is not able to use her legs, so the only thing she can do is to help pull weeds.

She had nothing because she came back, but the people in this village ate what they grew and worked hard for.

It was naturally impossible to just give it to her for nothing, and she would have to exchange it for her own labour.

The last thing she wants to do is to pull weeds, because it is a delicate job, and she has to bend her waist, which can be tiring after a long time.

And the only thing Emma can do, as she can't use her legs, is to pull weeds.

But she, really, hates this kind of work.

Looking at her hands rough and uncomfortable, she did not want to go there.

"If you don't go, there won't be any food to eat tonight." Lois said.

The only food she can get in exchange here are potatoes and peppers, and no more leafy vegetables beyond that.

This is how she came to be as a child, but now that she was back again, she was surprised she found these things so hard to swallow.

"I won't eat that." Emma said fiercely.

Lois, "There's nothing for tomorrow, I think it is going to rain tomorrow and we don't have any food in reserve."

It is really poor, and when Emma had money outside all these years, she did not think of repairing the hometown.

And now there is nothing left, and she who has come back to this place is penniless with nothing.

Even the house, too, looks like a dangerous house.

Lois could probably see by this time what the difference between Emma and Alina really was.

Alina has been in Shirling all these years though.

But Mulherd Manor, basically, has people repairing the house whenever it is not occupied, and she has people going over to take care of it whenever she can.

So when she returns to Ingford, she still has a place to live, not so much that she has to go over to Werland Villa.

And what about Emma?

When she relied on Caleb all these years, she really earned a lot, but what about her after leaving Caleb? She has become a person who is nothing again. "I'll go, okay?" Hearing that there was nothing at home made Emma's brain hurt.

When it rains in these mountains, it can be for days.

And they have nothing in this house now.

If they don't have some potatoes at home, they are likely to be hungry for days.

It's possible to go shopping, but it's a half-day walk on the road to get out of here, and there are no cars or anything.

Material things are scarce.

The only thing you have to do is to be nice to your neighbours so that you have people willing to help you.

The midday sun is hot in the mountains.

Emma was sitting in the ground, her hands constantly tugging at the grass in the field, which was to be cleared by the neighbour's family. This first planting shows just how much grass there really is, and it's hard to pull.

The sharp blades of grass cut Emma's palm, and it hurt badly at that moment. "Hurry up, this piece of land for three pounds of potatoes." Emma, "Only three pounds?"

"How much do you want otherwise?"

Three pounds, that was two if they were bigger, which wouldn't be enough for them to live on for the next few days.

Although aggrieved and angry, she did not dare to pick on her neighbour.

After returning these days, these people laughed at her a lot. When she left back then, she was a lot more high-profile than Hope. Saying after stepping out of this deep mountain, she would not return, yet in the end, she would still come back here in a messy state. Neighbours around her said that when she had money over the years, she didn't contribute a penny to her hometown.

Even if it was her own house, it should be repaired, right? In those days, she could have repaired a small building with any luxury item. But she never did. Because at that time, she never wanted to come back to this place.

So all these years this hometown, she had not done so. Who would have thought that this would be her last hiding place? Those neighbours around her were using every trick in the book to make things difficult for her, and Caleb was really ruthless. To let her go, he actually did not give her a penny.

Sunset.

She got back to the adobe house, and when Lois saw that Emma had only brought back a few potatoes, her face became sad.

"It is not enough. The weather can't be good for the next few days."

When one has money, there is camaraderie everywhere.

Back then at Werland Villa, when Lois recognized he, she was so kind to her, yet now...

Emma took a deep breath and said, "Don't be picky, Aunt, just bear with it."

Who would have thought that Emma would say the word bear?

Recently, Alina has been so popular that whenever Emma wants to look at the electronic software, all that is pushed on it is Alina's news.

"How come she's so lucky?" Looking at the picture of Alina, Emma went crazy with jealousy.

And when Lois heard Emma say that Alina was lucky, she had to admit that Alina was really lucky.

She uttered, "If it were someone else messed up with her brother-in-law, the in-laws' family would have eaten her up."

And that's the truth.

Who can stand such an ethical relationship?

However, what is surprising is that, after Vanessa knew about it, there was no objection, as if Vanessa had wanted Alina and Chester to be together from the beginning.

"She was raped before her marriage and was pregnant with that rapist's child. She even had a mental illness, how could she be tolerated by a picky and strict mother-in-law like Vanessa?"
