Chapter 536 What A Difference


    "Sir, take me right over here." L showed the taxi driver the address on her phone.


    "Oh, that looks like a distant neighborhood." The driver spoke the Barnes dialect fluently, and when


    he saw the address, he was obviously grossed out.


    L was ustomed to living in the rich area and had never left downtown. She knew nothing about


    this address and as she furrowed her brows, she asked, "Really?"


    "That neighborhood happens to be both poor and messy. I know for a fact that the people living


    there are all poor families and hooligans. Why would you ever want to go there?" The driver nced


    over at L. She was dressed from head to toe in elegant attire and didn''t look like someone who


    would live in such a bad neighborhood at all.


    With a dry smile on her face, L told him, "I don''t think that''s any of your business. Just take me


    there."


    The Gillian family''s house was far away from the downtown area. The driver drove the cab into a


    dpidated neighborhood.


    As soon as L got out of the car, she could make out a broken and small apartment building, which


    looked really like the haunted houses in those horror movies. The walls looked very shabby and


    yellow unknown liquid was all over the mottled walls. In the corridors were piles of garbage that


    looked like it had been there for a very long time.


    With her hand covering her mouth, L''s heart sank in her chest.


    She wanted to burst into tears, but she couldn''t right then. She could only hold back the feeling of


    nausea and find the apartment unit where her parents lived.

    After that, she knocked on the rusty iron door.


    "Who is it?" A man shouted irritably from inside the apartment and the door was opened with a loud


    squeak.


    A man with stubble on his chin and a big mole on the corner of his mouth poked his head out. He


    stank like an alcoholic. "Who the hell are you?" L was frightened by this man and she proceeded


    to take two steps back. She hesitated and said, "I... I''m looking for Glenn and Eva Gillian."


    Beal had told L that these were the names of her biological parents.


    Glenn looked at her up and down, and suddenly, it seemed like he hade to his senses. Then he


    shouted excitedly at the woman in the room, "Honey, our daughter is home!"


    A middle-aged woman ran out of the kitchen right away. The floor was shaking slightly when she


    was running out.


    Her voice was rough and with a strong local ent, she said, "L? Is that my L?"


    At the sight of L, the middle-aged woman embraced her daughter excitedly, "It''s so good to have


    you back."


    Glenn and Eva had both learned from Beal that L was going toe back.


    They had originally nned to let their daughter enjoy a lifetime of glory and wealth in the White


    family. Now that L had been kicked out of the Whites'' house, they were both disappointed but at


    the same time happy that she was nowing home to them.


    L looked at them disgustedly. When she smelled the pungent and strange smell on Eva, she


    wrinkled her nose and pushed the woman who was her mother away.


    "What''s that smell?"


    She wasn''t happy at all since she walked into the room. This house was both dirty and shabby.


    Also, the whole apartment wasn''t even as big as her bedroom in the White family residence.


    Obviously, they were very poor folks.


    She had heard from Beal that her biological father, Glenn, was an owner of a small business. At


    first, L thought that he would at least have some money. However, it turned out he was only an


    alcoholic and untidy man.


    As for her biological mother, Eva, she was totally a country bumpkin. They were no match to the


    likes of her adoptive parents Beal and Johanna.


    L was growing desperate. She could hardly believe that she had been born from such a woman.


    Eva wiped the sweat off her forehead and neck awkwardly and bowed her head down in shame. "I


    just came out of the kitchen and haven''t had the chance to take a shower yet. I shouldn''t have


    grabbed you like that. I was too excited just now." She looked at L carefully, with moist eyes. "You


    look exactly the same as me when I was younger."


    After hearing this, L became angrier and cursed in her heart. Was this fat bitch trying to humiliate


    her?


    Tears of joy began to well up in Eva''s eyes. She nervously wiped her sweating palms on the apron


    and said, "Since L is home now, let''s go ahead and have dinner now."


    Glenn scolded her, "Our son has yet to return."


    As soon as he finished saying that, the door was opened from the outside with a key.


    A young man, who had his hair dyed red, walked inside from the door. He nced over at L,


    shrugged his shoulders, and said in a rather frivolous manner with chewing gum still in his mouth,


    "Are you my sister?"


    He turned to look at L''s Hermes bag and asked her, "Is that bag real? It''s not a fake, is it?"


    L really wanted to roll her eyes.


    The young man before her was just some punk. The Gillian family was so poor, but he was wearing


    all brand-name items. He must be very spoiled. And what was with that arrogant attitude of his?


    L was about to go crazy. Everything in this house was an eyesore.
