Chapter 35

The nest moming, relished the chance to sleep in for once. After a week of back-to-back classes, even the kids needed a break.

After rolling out of bed, 1 hastily tidied up the place and tossed the two empty, crimped cans into the trash.

Maybe this was a sign that a new chapter in my life was about to begin. I was just getting excited about the future when someone knocked on the door.

It was strange because no one knew I lived here. So, I was genuinely surprised when I looked through the peephole and saw jack and Elenc

"open up, Evelyn. It's me, your father!" jack urged, banging on the door.

thad no idea what he was doing here, which was somewhat annoying, but I couldn't just leave them outside, so I decided to open the door.

As soon as I did, both of them barged in. Jack's face was etched with anxiety while Elene wore an expression of resignation

"I messed up that day. I shouldn't have yelled at you I need you to understand where I'm coming from. I've been so stressed out with work that I haven't been the best father, and I didn't consider your feelings." Hearing him say that out of the blue made me wonder if he had been possessed.

"Thope you can forgive me for what I did. Please don't be mad at me anymore. I've been so worried about you while you've been away the last few days. I don't even know if you're eating well or how you've been doing" He had never shown any concern for my well-being all these years, so it was odd to hear such words from him. Had he ever cared about me at all, he wouldn't have treated me like an expandable piece in his scheme. felt as if I was nothing more than a product for sale-whoever made the highest bid could have me. I also felt like a rung on his ladder, and as he ascended, he kept me under his heel, leaving me with no chance to catch my breath.

I remained silent, so Jack shot daggers at Elene, who was standing beside him. Reluctantly, she lowered her head and apologized to me.

"know I was in the wrong. Evelyn. I promise I won't do it again. I hope you can forgive me and overlook this minor transgression."

"Please don't hold it against me, Evelyn. Hurry up and pack your things. Let's go home. We've got a whole spread of your favorite dishes waiting at home!"

Usually, the three of them were idylle, a harmonious tro, whereas I was the discordant note. Even though I wasn't treated like dirt, Thad never been treated with the respect I deserved

I could tell something was amiss, so I crossed my arms and gave them a long, hard look. However, I couldn't figure out what was up. Growing uneasy under my gaze, Jack scratched his nose and walked up to me with an ingratiating smile. bothered by the. Plus, heading home wasn't such a terrible idea

It was obvious that they wouldn't leave unless I went back with them. I didn't want to be b "Alright. Let me pack my things. Why don't you guys wait out front?" As soon as I agreed to go home with them, both of them sighed in relief before waiting patiently at the door.

To be honest, I didn't have much to pack. I just didn't want to make it too easy for them to take me back with them. After lounging around in the house for a while, I was about to step outside when I overheard their conversation at the door,
