Chapter 1399 Anna glanced up, her eyes kinda blank.

After a beat, she reached out and grabbed Susan's hand. "Susan, chill. I'll clean it up right now." Susan stared at her, cooling off after her outburst.

She bent down to help Anna up, her voice softening, "Alright, stop picking it up. I'm not mad." Quinn grabbed a dustpan and broom from the side. "I got this." She quickly swept the pieces into the trash and headed back to the kitchen, where the food in the pot was on the verge of burning. Dinner was awkward. Susan didn't say a word.

Anna didn't either. She kept sneaking glances at Susan, took a few bites, then stood up, said she was full, and went upstairs.

Susan hesitated for a sec, then went back to eating, but it was more like she was eating out of spite, shoving food into her mouth. Quinn sighed next to her.

Yeah, dealing with this illness was rough on everyone around.

Hearing Quinn's sigh, Susan stopped eating too. She put down her fork and muttered, "Maybe I shouldn't have brought her here." Quinn looked at her, confused.

Susan went on, "She's lost here. She doesn't get the language, can't read anything. I just keep her cooped up in the house, and I barely have tto be with her." Quinn tried to comfort her, "You chevery day and see her, and she sees you. At least you're together, that's something." "What's the point? She doesn't even remember me," Susan said. She got up, grabbed a bottle of wine from the fridge, twisted off the cap, and took a swig. "Back home, even though we couldn't see each other, she wasn't this bad. She had a nanny. Except for not seeing me, everything was fine," Susan said, feeling guilty. She brought Anna over last month 'cause the doctor said her condition was getting worse. Every tAnna called, she kept asking when Susan would cback. Susan thought, while Anna still remembered her, she'd bring her over to spend more ttogether.

But as soon as she did, work got crazy. She was always coming hlate. She'd already hired two nannies before one stole stuff, and the other mistreated Anna. But she had to keep hiring 'cause she didn't have tto take care of Anna herself.

Quinn listened quietly. When Susan finished, Quinn asked, "You can afford to rent a house here, so you must have smoney. Why keep working so hard?" Susan could quit her job, go back home, sell the house here, and the leftover money would be enough for her and Anna to live comfortably.

Susan went quiet.

After a while, she nodded and said, "You're right, but not entirely. I actually don't have money." "This house is rented," Susan admitted.

"What?" Quinn asked, shocked.

Susan drank a bit more and spilled her current situation. The content is of novelenglish.net!

Back then, her dad climbed the social ladder, ditched her and her mom, and married into a rich family. Annam scrimped and saved to support n Susan's education. So, she vowed early on to make her dad regret abandoning them. After studying abroad, she stayed here to work.

The people at her company were super competitive and always om comparing. She was looked down on as a kid and and didn't want to be looked down on as an adult, so she rented this house.
