Chapter 7 

Bella’s POV: As soon as they got home, my sister Betty came up and asked, “Sister, what happened to your face?”

Hearing this, my mother immediately came over and asked anxiously, “Who did it? Is it your father?” 

“Mom, I was slapped twice, but I slapped back twice!” When i saw my mother‘s distressed look, i pretended to be relaxed.

“Don‘t take it to heart, Bella. Your father must have listened to Connie.” 

Mom, are you trying to say that my dad hit me for a reason? Can i forgive him? 

I threw the ice bag away angrily and said, “Mom, Ryan has never cared about you for so many years, Why are you still speaking for him? You have nothing to do with him now. You are strangers, and you are not as good as strangers. You are enemies!” 

That was how my mother was. She was weak and had no idea what to do. The father was her god. Although they had divorced for many years, Ryan was still her husband in her heart. 

That was what I hated most. 

“He is your father after all.” My mother‘s voice was very low. 

Seeing such a weak mother, I felt sad and softened my tone. “Mom, I‘m tired. I‘m going back to my room to rest.” 

I entered my room in frustration, my face burning with pain. Fortunately, it was the weekend tomorrow, otherwise, I wouldn‘t have been able to go to work.
