Chapter 387
“Your family used to have an adequate rtionship with Aunt
Luna’s family back then, so Callie always came to visit longside her parents. Although her family was re
off, she liked to take your toys, so you always held onto your oys tightly to prevent her from taking them
, whereas she would cry whenever she couldn’t take them.”
“What happened after that?”
“Mr. and Mrs. Hawkins would tell you to let her take the toys away, which always led to you wailing, the
n Dn would bring them back to you.”
“Is that so? I wonder why I do not remember any of those episodes?”
“It would be a wonder if you remember. Dn had been taking care of you ever since young. He would
fight other boys over you when you were in school.”
“That
I remember. The recollections of the past brought a smile to my face. “There were boys back then who
dered that they would marry me, whom Dn would fight no matter the odds. There was once when
he picked on a few boys alone, after which he ended up with a broken arm.”
“Yeah, I remember that too, so Dn’s parents felt so sorry for him. Dn sure was nice to you, and he
’s such a good kid. It would be nice if you had listened to your parents‘ advice.”
“Mrs. Fant!” I called out to her in exasperation.
Heaving a sigh, she said. “It’s no use saying that now. I know you hate Callie, but do bear with it. They
will be leaving after dinner.”
“I understand, Mrs. Fant. In the meantime, let me help you. Just tell me what you need me to do,”
“Peel me some garlic and onions,” instructed Mrs. Fant
While helping her with the task, I was paying attention to the conversation in the living room. Isabe tol
d me Dn wasn’t interested in Callie, but I could hear him speaking non–
stop, which made herugh. With how much of a show–
off he was being. I wondered if he was indeed uninterested. He’s such a flirty guy!

I never liked Callie to begin with, even more so after knowing that she bad–
mouthed me in front of Eric. Meanwhile, Dn could marry anyone he fancied, but I didn’t like the idea
of her being with Dn. Both Aunt Luna and Uncle Jared were materialistic people, so for sure, Callie
was no better. If she were to marry Dn, the Torres Family would most definitely bring upon Dn mu
ch misfortune.
The phone rang with a call from Isabe when my imagination was running wild. So, I left for upstairs
with my phone after drying my hands, then I picked up the call after I had closed the doors. Isabe’s v
oice came through, asking me, “Lily, did you
know Callie went to your home?”
“Yeah. I just arrived.”
“By the way, did Jolene beg you to help her brother after I left that day?”
“No. She fainted while we were on the way, so she was hospitalized.”
“What? Wasn’t she quite healthy? So why would that happen? Did the miscarriage weaken her body?”
“She even underwent a body check. After that, she told me that the doctor informed her that both her ut
erus and oviduct were shriveling. That aside, she was alsoining about dizziness whenever she
was under the sun, so who knows if she was faking it.”
“Why does her symptom sound like a case of having ingested cottonseed oil?”
“Cottonseed oil?” I asked curiously.
