My Heart only Beats for You

Chapter 2696

That made her work even harder.

She would try even harder to become the daughter that would make her mother smile and be proud of.

While Dory was lost in her thoughts, she heard the door slam shut.

Aimeen had come home.

Her face looked very upset.

She had lost in many card games earlier today,

She lost a lot of money too.

Aimeen hated losing money. She would always get into a bad mood when she did.

The moment she came home, she saw Dory sitting on the balcony.

Aimeen became angry.

She shouted at her, "You stupid girl! What do you think you're doing over there?! Don't you know you should be cooking dinner right now?! Are you trying to starve me to death?!" Despite her young age, Dory had learned how to cook simple dishes.

She needed a stool to help her reach the stovetop whenever she cooked.

Dory was shocked at Aimeen yelling at her.

Panicked, she quickly stood up, "Okay, Mommy. I'll start cooking now."

As she walked into the kitchen she said, "I thought you weren't coming home tonight, Mommy. So I didn't cook anything."

Aimeen had been staying out very late playing cards lately.

She would still be glued to the gambling table at this time eating takeout.
