The Bound Between Us
Chatper 244
Chapter 244
Melinda’s sudden sobbing took Anastasia off guard. “Melinda, what’s wrong? What’s going on? Please, don’t cry.” Anastasia said. She handed Melinda a tissue and tried to wipe away her tears.
Unable to hold back her emotions, the moment Melinda hung up the phone, all her grievances poured out like a burst dam. Everything she had been working and fighting for seemed like a cruel joke. It was as if a string she had been tensing for years had suddenly snapped.
Melinda cried uncontrollably, drawing a few side-eyes from other customers in the shop.
Pattie, the wise little girl, tried to wipe Melinda’s tears away with her tiny hand, “Don’t cry. I’ll give you a sweet.”
She didn’t really know how to comfort people, but she was willing to share her candy. In Pattie’s world, having sweets always cheered her up.
Pattie unwrapped a sweet, and Melinda, unable to say no to the little girl, popped it in her mouth. She sobbed silently as she tasted the sweetness, which was a stark contrast to the bitterness in her heart. She was no longer a three-year-old child who could be placated with a piece of candy. The sweeter the candy, the more bitter she felt inside.
“My parents just bought a house in the county and didn’t even tell me. They used my money to buy my brother his wedding house. They set the wedding date without telling me. What the hell am I to them?” Melinda exploded, “Am I just an ATM to them? For years, I’ve been footing the bill for everything at home. They’ve squeezed me dry.”
Hearing this, Anastasia felt a surge of anger for Mélinda. Melinda might have seemed to be living the high life, but in reality, she was beaten and bruised, drained dry by her own family.
After a long while of comforting her, Melinda finally calmed down. Seeing Melinda in such a state, Anastasia didn’t dare to ask anything else.
