His eyes darkened after he heard her words. They were as dark as coal. "Do you really want to come?" he asked.
"Yes," she answered without hesitation. She was determined to go; she wanted to know which place exactly did he think was not proper for her to follow along.
However, she hadn't expected him to bring her to the place they had come to...
He had brought her to Summer's house, and he was on his knees, begging for Daisy's forgiveness while she stood aside.
'What is going on?' she thought.
'He drunk so much just now and hasn't even sobered u p, nor can he even open his eyes fully, yet the first place he thought of going is her house? Am I not hurt enough?'
Her heart had ached and bled so painfully at that moment, and never had she felt this way before.
The door remained shut after Daisy opened the door and shut it hard in their faces.
Mark's expression did not waver, nor did it darken. Dressed in his suit, he stood
there.
Raine had never seen him like that. He was always with poise, graceful, and had a noble air around him.
She felt something snap within her, and she placed her hand on his wrist and forcefully pulled him as she yelled, "That's enough!"
"I'll be here for quite a while. You should head back first," he pushed her hand off him and said with his voice sounding flat.
"Quite a while? How long would that be?" she asked with rage burning in her. The fire in her raged as though it would burn away her sanity when she said," Why are you doing this? There is no need for you to do this. You're not the one who killed her father!"
She pouted her tiny lips and trotted forward to Summer. She stood on a step and said, "There's a new advertisement of that old man on TV, and the fried drumstick looks huge!"
Summer ignored her and continued washing the clothes in the bucket, rubbing the collars of a shirt.
"Mummy!" Charlotte called out in frustration. Her small hands grabbed onto the corner of Summer's shirt as she said, "I have to sleep yesterday, today, and tomorrow, so why can't I eat that old man today even though I had it yesterday?"
"How do you come up with such gibberish? Are you done with your noodles?" "I don't want to have noodles. I want to have that old man," she replied while pouting. She even gulped while saying so as though she had really wanted to get it.
Right at that moment, a deep voice sounded," Charlotte."
She turned around and jumped down from the steps.
She smiled and ran towards him with her braids swaying behind her. "Daddy!"
