Chapter 183 This Is an Obligation (2)
“As long as it is within one’s ability, it is sufficient as long as it is not excessive.”
Zoe heard Valerie’s answer, and her face was filled with blood, turning completely red.
“Well, well, I want to chat with you! You don’t have to reply to me, just listen to what I have to say.”
When Zoe said these words, her voice was still trembling.
Looking urgently at Valerie, hoping that she wouldn’t reject him, his
eyes had already started to well up with tears.
She had also prepared herself mentally to be rejected by Valerie.
The atmosphere became awkward.
Valerie was about to open her mouth to refuse, but Zoe’s tightly clenched hand made Valerie close her mouth.
She frowned and sighed for a long time.
“Ms. Horton, whenever you are available is fine, as the school’s curriculum has been temporarily suspended due to your special circumstances. Mr. Horton has already arranged for a private tutor for you, as well as a teacher for self-defense techniques, just in case to protect yourself in critical moments.|
Your schedule is very tight, so if you have time and still want to chat with me, I am available anytime.
Now you can get up and have breakfast. I will go replace your butler and make a meal for you. Please wait a moment.
After speaking, Valerie left the room and went to the kitchen to replace the busy butler.
Zoe’s mouth never closed.
When she heard that Zoe didn’t refuse herself, but was willing, she suddenly burst into tears.
“Haha… Haha…”
This was happy.
I laughed and then started crying, bitterness swelled in my heart like a sponge.
But happiness also made Zoe unable to shout.
I could only hold back with all my strength, silently wiping away these endless tears.
After calming herself down, she went to the bathroom to wash her face and brush her teeth.
I looked at myself in the mirror, feeling confused.
Zoe opened the drawer and looked at the scented candles and lighter- inside.
She looked for a long time, slowly picked up the lighter, her heart pounding.
Trembling, I clicked open…

“Hiss!!”

The burning heat made Zoe drop the lighter in her hand and blow on the burnt area.
Zoe fell into silence.
“It really hurt…”
She gritted her teeth, picked up the lighter again, and stared at it as if she was heading to the battlefield.
Afterwards, there would occasionally be a gasp of cold air coming from the bathroom.
Zoe’s eyes had turned red.
She rubbed her itchy nose and cried silently.
She no longer wanted to make her sister suffer.
I dreamt before that my sister left home and went to her death. She feels guilty and has never dared to look at Valerie since then.
It was all her fault that the family blamed her sister like this.
When I was a child, I had a bad temper and didn’t understand anything, but now I understand.
She understood her sister because of her own childhood experiences, how much hardship she had endured, and she also understood that her sister would no longer be as gentle toward her as before.
So in this life, she didn’t want her sister to come back.
But the new dream made Zoe panic and uneasy.
Am I going to die again because of myself?
If it was really like this.
It would be better to become stronger on my own, and no longer trouble my sister.
That hand had already been scalded, turning red and swollen…
But Zoe, like she had no pain, gritted her teeth and took deep breaths.
Once again, the lighter was clicked open.
I tried to use this tiny flame to practice enduring the pain of being surrounded by a big fire…
