Enchanted By His Charm



Life was a lonely journey from birth to death. On the journey, we met all kinds of people, some of whom we made friends with, and some just disappeared. The biggest difference was that friends and family would feel attached to us when we finally left the world. That was the meaning of life.

Some asked why a human being lives longer than a pet. Some answered that it was because, as pets were born, they knew how to love and trust, while human beings would spend their lifetime finding out what they wanted and what was the most precious.

Some live to gain simple happiness in their short lifetime, such as cats or dogs, while others suffer all kinds of pains in their long lifetime, such as human beings.

Emery was a good example.

Her happiness was short, but her suffering was long. Finally, she chose such a way to end her life.

The incident happened in this way.

In the morning, Emery looked unhappy. Ruby asked what was wrong with her, and she just shook her head. Ruby thought that maybe there was much work to do. In addition, she felt unwell. Ruby asked her to stay at home. Emery agreed. As Ruby was to leave, Emery asked whether Ruby hated her or not.

Ruby felt strange. Emery said that if it were not because of her, she would not have given part of her share. Ruby persuaded her not to think too much. She was willing to do that. Emery still felt disappointed. She thought that she got Ruby into trouble, and now Ruby even couldn't become a normal person.

Ruby knew that Emery had been in deep self-accusation since she knew that Joseph had taken the share of the Lakes in the name of pressing down the rumors. Ruby herself wasn't happy since she was regarded as a bad guy. Emery had this sort of burden on her every day. Ruby was worried that one day she might be broken.

However, Ruby didn't realize that this day would come so quickly.

Emery didn't come to the cake store, claiming she wanted a good rest. Ruby comforted her, and then she went to the store alone.

When she returned at night, Emery didn't go out for her.

Ruby thought she might be asleep and just put the dinner down. As she was changing her shoes, something passed and then through the window in the living room.

Ruby's heart beat quickly, and as she watched it carefully, everything turned out to be fine.

It was in summer when the windows were open.

At night, the wind was so great. When it entered, the flowers and grass in the room were shaken east to west.

She wanted to close the window, but she heard screaming downstairs, shaking the whole building down. Ruby searched. Against the lamp, she saw a person groveling on the floor. Several people approached, and then they screamed and left.

Ruby's mind was blank suddenly. The lamp was so bright, and the person, groveling on the floor, had the same clothes and figure as Emery's.

Emery!

She searched every room as if she had gone mad. Emery was not in the room!

Ruby rushed downstairs.

The smell of blood filled her nose. She rushed forward hurriedly. Pulling the crowd, she saw Emery's face, which was covered by blood. Emery didn't close her eyes, meeting Ruby's shocked expression.

Emery left a piece of posthumous paper.

It read, "I'm not willing to be someone to constrain you. Only if I left could you live a carefree life. Nobody can threaten or laugh at you now. You should live a better life."

Emery created a kind of life without any burden for her. Emery's blood shocked Ruby.

She hated everyone who intervened with her peaceful life and those who laughed at them. Sometimes guns or knives didn't kill someone, while rumors and malicious acts were more scary tools to kill someone.

However, she couldn't hate her own mother, and she could only find a vent in the crowd and the initiator. That was Joseph.

It was not difficult for Irish to know Ruby's mind, which was why she wanted to wake her up.

Nobody wanted to see blood or death. Irish had no hatred for Emery, so she didn't hope to see such a scene. Faced with Ruby's roaring scolding, what she should do was be strict with her. On the other hand, Joseph was her husband. Emery had killed herself. It had nothing to do with others.

Emery's death drove Ruby mad. She had lost her mind, and all in her mind was hatred for Joseph. She put all her hatred on Joseph.

Irish's words made Ruby annoyed. She rushed forward regardless of anything. Irish didn't know what she was going to do, while Joseph just pulled behind her. As she turned around, Ruby stubbed on Joseph's face.

The sound was so clear that everyone was just startled.

When Ruby thought of stubbing on him again, her hands were held by Joseph tightly.

Irish recovered. As she saw Joseph's stubbed face, she got crazy soon. She shouted at Ruby angrily, "Damn it! You should jump from the top!"

Ruby's fingernails were long. As she patted him, her fingernails hurt Joseph's face. Although the wound was not so severe, it was blooded. No wonder Irish was so angry, even though she herself hadn't hurt him. But now Ruby didn't only hurt him but also got his face wounded. If Joseph hadn't pulled her, she would have paid back to Ruby.

The policeman pulled Ruby away, while Roy just shook his head all the time. Shirley dared not to say anything. Obviously, when she saw the wound on Joseph's face, she also felt scared.

"Ruby, nobody wants her to die. She has passed away. Is there any significance to being so impulsive?" Roy shouted, an air of her brother.

Ruby cried again. She didn't want to hear anything.

Shirley sighed and persuaded lightly, "Ruby, do not blame me. You know, I am just frank. I didn't like Emery, but I didn't want her to die. Please forgive me."

The policeman motioned for them not to talk anymore.

Irish didn't want to know Ruby's feelings. If she hadn't acted in that way just now, she would have felt pitiful for Ruby. But now she just wanted to kick on her.

"Are you okay?" Irish took out a piece of clean wet tissue, rubbing Joseph's face lightly.

Damn it! She hurt his face.

If Ruby dared to destroy Joseph's appearance, she would certainly pour sulfuric acid on Ruby's face!

"It's all right." Joseph saw the anger in Irish's eyes and comforted her.

It was late when the two went back home.
