Chapter 14

“WHY ON EARTH DID YOU DO THAT?!?” I screamed because I couldn’t tolerate my conflicting emotions any longer. Anger, anguish, and bitterness. They appear to have agreed with me. I’ve been going about in a shell for a long time, but I’m not sure why since others take advantage of my condition.

“WHAT IS IT ABOUT? COMPANY? THAT’S WRONG! YOU COULD HAVE INFORMED ME! I WILL GO TO ANY LENGTH FOR MY PARENTS’ COMPANY!” I moved my feet closer to the side table. I grabbed the lampshade and tossed it in front of her.

When Aunt Helena calmed down, he threw me a harsh and piercing stare.
