Chapter 1399
Even if I could save Susan, could I do the same for the second, third or fourth one?
To be honest, I couldn''t. I wasn''t a saint!
The few families in the vige all arrived, and they took turns to sit down and eat at the two tables.
There were not many dishes, just some cabbage boiled with meat and beans. The women in the
vige were chatting together while standing, and Bobbie also came back after a while.
Someone went up to him and asked, "Mr. Hathaway, is there anything else your customers need? I
still have five other children. All of them are very healthy."

Bobbie frowned slightly and said, "Not at the moment. I''ll let you know if there''s anything. Don''t
worry."
Can they do anything just for money? All of them were their biological children!
I couldn''t control my emotions anymore. Sheridan, who was standing beside me, whispered, "Try
not to think about it. Everyone has his own rules of survival. Perhaps, they don''t have a choice, or
they just took it for granted. You just need to focus on yourself."
I pursed my lips and lowered my head, not knowing what to say.
After dinner, some men from the Caulfield family came to pick Susan up. They came in a white van
that was covered with dust. If it weren''t for the flowers that were tied to the rearview mirror, no one
would know that they were here to pick up the bride.
Gail dragged Susan out of the cow pen. It was shocking and frustrating at the same time to see the
bride covered in dirt and cow dung.
Susan was dragged into the house. She just looked at me with her beautiful eyes, without asking for
help orining. It made me feel like I was sitting on pins and needles, and the guilt in my heart
was torturing me.
Sheridan looked at me and said. "Don''t think too much. Miss Reid, we''ve aplished the purpose
of our visit this time. That''s someone else''s business. Don''t interfere."
I pursed my lips and suddenly thought about what I would do if Hendrix was here. If he was here
with me, could I do what I wanted to? However, even if I managed to save one Susan, I couldn''t
save hundreds or thousands of others. The only way to change this was for them to save
themselves.
When Susan came out of the house, she was wearing a faded red coat and a pair of ck trousers.
Her messy hair wasbed, and there was a bunch of red flowers stuck in her hair.
Gail and his wife both held onto her and handed her over to the two men who came to pick her up.
Then she was taken into the car.
The onlookers were all smiling as if this was a beautiful wedding ceremony. No one seemed to have
noticed Susan''s sorrow, or it should be said that no one cared at all.
The van took her away while Mrs.Hathaway let her other daughters eat. After that, she ordered
them to clean up the mess left behind by the guests. While they were cleaning, the pair of parents
took me and Bobbie aside and said some polite words to us.
Before leaving, Bobbie gave Gail a red envelope, which seemed to contain about ten or twenty
thousand dors. Then, he said, "Take this money first. If the operation is sessful, Miss Reid will
thank you."
The two of them were extremely happy when they received the red packet and expressed their
thanks repeatedly.
I didn''t know what to say. Feeling a slight warmth in my palm, I looked down and saw that Abby had
come over to hold my hand. She looked at me and said, "Madam Reid, are we leaving?"
