Chapter 28: Chapter 27: Tasting One’s Own Bitter Fruit

A bright moon rose in the night sky, a gentle breeze caressing the clothes, bringing with it a refreshing coolness.

Joy stood alone by the balcony, her hands on the railing, gazing into the distance.

She had returned to South City, staying at Elliana Lyle’s house. Although she could no longer perform in South Wind Song, Joy’s mood was not affected in the slightest.

In fact, it was because of this that she had the time to come back.

Now, without the busyness, it seemed like everything had calmed down.

Knock, knock, knock.

"Joy, are you asleep?"

The voice of Bella Hue, Joy’s aunt, came from outside the bedroom door. Joy hurriedly went inside from the balcony to open the door.

"Auntie." Joy said with a warm smile, seeing her aunt holding a doll about the same size as her.

"Joy, I remember you were scared of sleeping alone when you were a child. Since Elliana is not home, I brought you one of her dolls." Aunt Hue said with a gentle smile, placing the doll on the bed after walking into the room.

It was a large pink bear, and Joy remembered that it was a gift Elliana received for her 17th birthday.

Back when she was 18, Elliana was just 17. After embarking on her acting career, she was not well-received by her family, but Joy’s uncle and aunt’s family treated her extremely well and even let her stay with Elliana for a year.

It was from that time that the relationship between Joy and Elliana started to become close.

"Auntie, you’ve really gone to great trouble." The smile on Joy’s face deepened as she accepted the doll without refusal.

Being afraid to sleep alone was something from her childhood, but her aunt still remembered it fondly.

"Joy, go to sleep early. I don’t have much to do tomorrow either, so we can go out and shop."

"Alright, goodnight Auntie."

After escorting Aunt Hue out, as soon as Joy closed the door, her phone buzzed with a message notification.

It was from Elliana.

Elliana: "Sis, I just got back from the set. Are you at home yet? How’s Mom’s foot?"

Even though Elliana had already asked Aunt Hue herself, she still felt a little uneasy.

She always felt a bit indebted to Joy, but thankfully, Joy didn’t stop liking her as a sister because of it.
