Chapter 6 Moving Forward though the Heart’s Bleeding


    After that, I kept on watching the surveince footage from the living room repeatedly with tears all over


    my face. My mom was still apologizing to me and little David before she fell to her death. I knew it. I


    truly did. My poor mother had reached her limit. She was trying so hard to love us, but she truly could


    not endure it anymore.


    I used to be so na?ve to think that I would definitely be able to get back grandpa’s factory and take


    revenge for my mom, yet I was so ipetent that I could not even protect little David well!


    Tears flowed down my cheeks. Mommy, I miss you! I really miss you! Yet I could not be defeated, I


    must not. I have to get back everything that was supposed to be ours, and as for the agony we suffered


    back then, I must pay them back tenfold if not double. I wiped my tears dry, put on my clothes nicely,


    tidied myself up and headed to Marvin’spany, the Marvin Group.

    After decades of development, Marvin had transformed the factory into a moderatepany building,


    and he himself had be a boss with moderate status. “What are you doing? Outsiders are


    forbidden to enter!” The security guard at the entrance blocked my way and barred me from entering. I


    straightened my back and said, “I’m President Cornell’s daughter!”


    The security guard sneered and retorted, “You’re President Cornell’s daughter?” He looked at me from


    head to toes with a disdainful look. “Why don’t you look yourself in the mirror first? With this look, I can’t


    believe you’re bold enough to im that you’re President Cornell’s daughter; do you think I’m a fool?


    Plus, I’ve seen Miss Cornell almost every day. Miss Cornell has good looks and a nice body, and you


    lookpletely like a beggar. Aren’t you shameless enough to impersonate Miss Cornell?”


    I smiled. “How could you be that sure President Cornell only has one daughter? It could be he has


    another daughter, and it’s just that you didn’t know about that!” The fact that I was doubted and teased


    had happened too frequently, and I had already gone numb of it. Being told that, the security guards


    hesitated for a while, and I took the opportunity to gain entry into the building.


    Just then, the security guard suddenly yelled towards my back. “Sir!” I frowned. My original n was to


    negotiate with Marvin in the office, but now---I could only turn back. Marvin was startled when he saw


    me, he instantly stepped forward and gave me two ps on the face. I did not manage to response and


    I backed up from the abrupt ps. The security guard who initially hesitated let out a grim smile at


    once.


    “Bitch, how dare you stille here?” Marvin bawled in rage. I stood straight and stared at him. “You


    gave birth to me, so why can’t Ie? Plus I’ve graduated, don’t you think you should fulfill a father’s


    responsibility and let me work at grandpa’spany?” Marvin gave me another p the moment I


    finished my sentences. I felt a rush of warmth in my nose and when I touched it, my hand was full of


    blood. I wiped my nose and looked at Marvin with a level gaze. “Marvin Cornell, this is my grandpa’s


    Marvin sneered and abruptly grabbed my hair. He tossed me onto the ground and said to the security


    guards beside him, “Get her out of here. If I ever see her one more time, you’re fired!”


    “Don’t worry, sir! You won’t see her ever again!” The security guard quickly promised and he snatched


    my cor, dragging me out of the ce. I struggled as much as I could, yet my strength was no match


    against a strong man’s. As I struggled, the security guard gave me several kicks. The kicks allnded


    straight on my stomach. The pain made me curled up at once. “Look, if I ever see you again, I’ll beat


    you to death!” He tossed my onto the road and my knees hit the ground hard. My knees were scraped


    and they hurt from the fall. I covered my stomach and stood up, enduring the pain. Yet my whole body


    instantly froze when I stood up.


    Alicia was getting out of a Bentley car while holding Marlon’s arm affectionately. She was wearing a


    long pink dress and a crystal tiara on her head today, looking like a princess that existed in fairytales,


    whereas Marlon was wearing a dark blue suit. There was not a single fluctuation in expression on his


    handsome face, and he looked exactly like those arrogant and cool princes from the middle-age.


    Princesses and princes did match with each other.


    I clenched my fists tightly. See, that was the difference between me and Alicia. She was the princess


    that was honored and loved by the whole world, while I was the criminal that hadmitted


    unforgivable sins.


    “Sis, what’s wrong?” Alicia walked towards me with care. She extended her hand, wanting to hold me.


    Looking at her tender and smooth hand, I instantly pped her hand off. The pping sound was


    exceptionally loud and clear. “Rachael! What are you doing?” Marlon stood between us to protect her


    and he criticized me.


    “Sis, you…” Alicia covered her hand with teary eyes. I got up to my feet and lifted my head, passing by


    Marlon with a smile. It was just that the moment I passed by him, my tears inevitably flowed down.


    Alicia was the one he cared for, liked and was ready to engage. What am I? I was nothing. Plus, Alicia


    had used to be good at acting since young. She was good at looking pitiful.


    As I cried, I started to smile. Even though those were the facts, my heart still ached greatly. Marlon


    Redford, do you know that I love you very much? That I love you more than my own life? Yet, no matter


    how desperate, how sad I felt, I knew that I still needed to continue moving forward. I wiped my tears


    dry, washed my face and was ready to look for a job.


    I had already anticipated that Marvin would not give me a job. Yet since I had already graduated, I must


    find a job, or else, I would not be able to keep myself alive, not to mention leaving the house with little


    David. However, as I looked for job opportunities for the whole day, I had encountered great difficulties.


    None of thepanies wanted to hire me. And it was until that time that I truly realized I, Rachael


    Cornell was that useless.


    But I could not give up yet. All of a sudden, I thought of Marlon, and a way that not only could make


    Alicia and her family ufortable, but also make me and Marlone closer. With that thought in


    mind, I walked towards Marlon’s house. Although I had devised every word that I should say afterwards


    along the way, my mind still turned to aplete nk when I stood in front of Marlon’s house.


    “What are you doing here?” A Bentley car slowly drove into the garage. Marlon got out of the car and


    upon seeing me, his dark eyes were filled with unhappiness. “Rachael, I thought I’ve told you that we’re


    already done!” My heart raced and I tried to straighten my back, saying with a low voice, “Don’t worry,


    Marlon. I’m not here to continue our previous rtionship, I’m not that pathetic!” Marlon looked at me


    and walked towards me. I backed up with guilt and came to a dead end. My back was pressed against


    a wall and I had nowhere to escape.


    Marlon put one of his hands on top of me. His lofty figure covered mepletely at once. His apathetic


    aura was oppressing me. He lowered his head slowly and his face almost touched me. I could clearly


    feel his burning breaths on my lips and his unique smell had surrounded me, making my mind jumbled


    up. He pinched my chin and both of us could sense each other’s warmth from our lips.
