S31 6. Diana’s Hatred

“Grandma, we need to talk.” Philip held Diana’s hand, thwarting her intention to open the door.

The old woman gritted her teeth. “If you want to defend your friends, it’s better not to talk.”

“They are not just friends to me, but also family. They are the ones who gave me work, welfare, and attention. I think you would know because you were the one who sent my application letter to their company.”

Diana fell silent. She had no reason to argue.

“Come on, Grandma. This isn’t you. Why are you like this?”

Diana pushed Philip’s hand away and turned the doorknob. However, because Philip was still blocking her she had no choice but to walk to the front porch.

“Is it because of something that happened in your past?” Philip didn’t let Diana go alone.

“Stop it, Philip. I don’t want to talk about that.”

Diana crossed her arms and sat on a chair. Philip hurried to sit next to her. “So, my guess is right? What has Rowan done to you to make you this upset?”

Diana turned around in her seat, hoping Philip couldn’t see the

twitching of her chin. “I don’t recognize that name.”

Philip let out a faint sigh. It’s difficult to resolve the problem if Diana

didn’t want to open up.

“Okay, let’s just say you don’t know each other. My friends,” he

Diana took a deep breath. “They don’t deserve my attention,” she muttered, barely audible.
