Gill’s eyes turned red instantly. Her voice broke as she said, “Ms. Saunders, you’ve suffered…. I only hate that I was so useless. No one believed me back then. I was with you for so long… How could I not know if you had a mental illness or not?”

Yunice laughed bitterly. Her own family didn’t believe her, so how could they believe Gill?

Gill gripped her hand and said through clenched teeth, “Ms. Saunders, you can’t lose. I’ve lived for 30 years, and I’ve finally figured it out that no one is reliable. A person can only rely on themselves! You have to work hard, buy a big house like this one, move out of the Saunders family, and I’ll take care of you. I’ll be your companiont The Saunders family has long turned into a den of jackals. If you can’t stand on your own, they’ll tear you apart and swallow you whole!” Gill spoke with gritted teeth. She was truly afraid Yunice would never recover, but there was nothing she could do to help.

Yunice squeezed Gill’s hand in return and said, “I will buy a big house in the future. We’ll live together.”

Hearing this, Gill immediately thought of something. I even saved something for you! When you were locked in the psychiatric hospital, Elsie wasted no time trying to get rid of your things. I secretly kept some for you. They’re buried under the tree in the yard. Ms. Saunders, find a chance to dig them up. They might come in handy!”

The rain dripped outside. Yunice and Gill seemed to have endless things to say, but the sun would rise again, and people had to part eventually.

No matter how much Yunice hated that house, she still had to go back.

She knew Paul would definitely report her absence last night to Owen. Instead of rushing back, she boldly delayed her return until late at night. After all, Owen wouldn’t be back for another six days. But the moment Yunice got home, she was suffocated.. Owen’s car was parked in the driveway.

Owen came back early? Is it because Paul complained, and Owen rushed back overnight?

Yunice knew Owen’s temper. He was impulsive and quick to anger. The best choice when he was mad was to avoid him.

She turned around immediately, planning to stay out for six or seven days. By then, maybe Owen’s anger would have subsided.

“Yunice. It was Paul’s voice.

Yunice turned back. Paul walked toward her from the living room. She didn’t see Owen

Paul stopped in front of her, his eyes scanning her up and down, checking for any suspicious marks. Only after confirming there was nothing unusual did his expression relax. He lowered his voice and said, “I didn’t tell your brother about what you did.”

Yunice looked at Paul warily.

Paul said, “You used to take the fall for me, so I’m helping you this time.”

Paul had never been an easy person. When they were kids, every time he got into trouble, he made Yunice cover for him.

One year, Elsie was hanging out with a group of gangsters. Paul beat one of them up, and he ended up at the police. station. Paul was worried about Elsie’s reputation, and made Yunice say she was the one being harassed by those gangsters. It was as if her reputation didn’t matter at all.

Yunice didn’t respond to Paul’s goodwill. She just gave a short “Mm” and walked toward the house.

Paul followed. “I helped you, and you’re still ignoring me?”

Yunice stopped, looking impatient. “You’re Elsie’s boyfriend now. Is it

appropriate for me to talk to you?”

Paul grabbed her. “Stop using that as an excuse. If you were really so loyal, would you have thrown yourself at Wyatt!”

Yunice turned her head and looked at him coldly.

Paul lifted his chin confidently. “Did I say anything wrong? Only flies swarm to filth. You and he are both rotten.”
