Chapter 2008


    Christopher''s eyes were flushed red as he said, "Mom, I''ll go out and work when I get better. Even if


    I have to go to the construction site and carry cement, I will make sure that I do everything possible


    to make money to make up for this family''s living expenses. I won’t allow you to go out and suffer


    and work so hard when you are already so old!” 3


    Harold also said vaguely, "Grandma, I''ll also go then!"


    Lady Wilson nodded before she said, "Both of you should focus on recuperating and recovering.


    After both of you get well, I’ll have to depend on you two to look after me and give me a proper


    burial after my death then!”


    As the Wilson family of four finally enjoyed a full meal, Hannah cried in her own room to the point


    that her face was covered in tears.


    As she was suffering from hunger and cold, Hannah did not only feel despair because of the Wilson


    family, but she had also made a decision in her heart to prepare to leave this ce.


    She did not intend to stay in this house any longer, nor did she intend to continue staying in Aurous


    Hill.


    She wanted to go back to her natal home.


    Although her natal family did not have much money and even though her elder brother was still


    living off


    her parents, at the very least, her natal family would still be able to provide her with food. She would


    not need to be so devastated and live in dire straits. 2


    However, her natal family was a little far away. It would take her at least a five to six hour trip to get


    back to her natal family on a hard-seat train.


    Furthermore, the train ticket would cost more than one hundred dors. Therefore, her journey back


    home eventually became Hannah''s biggest problem.


    After thinking about it, Hannah decided to use Lady Wilson as a means to resolve her problem.


    That night, Lady Wilson slept very soundly after a whole day of performing various physical work.


    In the wee hours of the morning, Hannah sneaked into Lady Wilson''s room and she found two


    hundred dors in Lady Wilson''s pocket. 2


    Out of the two hundred dors, one hundred dors was the olddy''s sry while the other one


    hundred dors was the money that Lady Wilson received after getting a p across her face. 1


    Hannah was very excited when she saw the two hundred dors.


    Although two hundred dors was not a lot of money, i t would be more than enough for her to have


    breakfast after dawn before taking the train home to her natal family home to spend New Year''s Eve


    there!


    So, Hannah hurriedly ced the money in her own pocket without any hesitation at all. After that,


    she packed a few pieces of clothing and her own personal belongings before leaving the vi at


    Thompson First with a suitcase before dawn.


    Before she left, Hannah left a note in her room with only a few words written on it: "See you when I


    see you." 4


    ***


    Early in the morning on New Year''s Eve, ire had finally begun her vacation. 1


    However, since she was already ustomed to going t o bed early and waking up early, ire


    woke up at seven in the morning to get ready to wash up.


    When Charlie saw that his wife had already woken up, he also got up from bed. It was New Year''s


    Eve today. There would be a lot of things that they would have to get busy with at home, as they


    would not only need to prepare the New Year''s Eve dinner, but they would also have to get the


    filling for the dumplings ready in advance. The entire family watched the Spring Festival G


    together as they made dumplings together.


    At this time, ire''s cell phone suddenly rang and she said in surprise, "Oh! Loreen is calling me so


    early in the morning. I wonder what''s wrong?"


    Charlie smiled as he said, "Wife, wouldn’t you know after you answer the call?" 3

    ire nodded before she answered the phone. "Hello, Loreen. Why are you calling me so early in


    the


    morning?"


    Loreen smiled as she said, "I''m already on vacation now! Since I''m already on leave today, I will be


    flying back to Eastcliffter in the afternoon to apany m y family to enjoy our New Year''s Eve


    dinner together."


    After that, she said again, "Will you be freeter? I would like to pay you a visit at your house and


    wish Uncle and Aunt a happy new year too."


    ire smiled as she said, "Yes, I will be free but you shouldn''t buy anything for us when you drop


    by our houseter. I didn''t manage to buy any gifts for your family and furthermore, since we''re so


    close and have such a good rtionship with each other, we don''t need to engage in such


    formalities, okay?"


    "Okay!" Loreen smiled as she said, "Wouldn''t it be done as long as you say the word?"


    After that, Loreen added, "By the way, ire, would it b e okay for me to bring my cousin along with


    me to pay a visit at your house?"
