Adam waved at her and turned to leave with graceful steps. Mila, who was standing outside the door, heard footsteps and quickly turned to hide in the corner. It was not until Adam was far away that she came out from the darkness. The usually loving face clouded over. Seeing her daughterâs happy face through the gate, she smiled. She had protected her daughter for seven years. She would not let anyone bully Judith. Judy was a filial daughter. She walked in with a loving smile as if nothing had happened.
âJudy, Adam is gone.â âMom, letâs go back!â Judith walked toward Mila with a smile and held her arm.
The mother and daughter smiled at each other. Judith suddenly took out the card Emily gave her. âMom, take it. You need to pay for the food for us. So you should take the money!â Mila took the bank card with a smile and a doting smile appeared on her face. âJudy, it is happier to use granddaughterâs money than daughterâs money!â Judith smiled brightly, shining like the sun, as if she could light the dark night. âMom, you donât care about me now. You just focus on your granddaughter. But mom, I will work hard to make money and let our family live a good life.â Judith leaned on Milaâs shoulder and acted like a spoiled child.
Mila nodded and looked at the bright smile on Judithâs face. Judith was like a child in front of her mom.
Every day after work, Judith would act like a spoiled child to Mila. Judithâs eyes were beautiful and charming. Every time Judith looked at Mila like this, Milaâs heart would soften, and she would feel the happiness that her daughter brought her! Mila gently knocked on her forehead. âFool, of course, I care about you. Donât think too much about it. Tomorrow is the weekend. Donât get up early. Have a good sleep. I will get up early in the morning to buy groceries and cook delicious food for you.â
Judith nodded happily.
She looked up at the brightly lit house and said with a happy smile, âMom, we have a home.â When they were in Kimshire, the apartment they lived in was very small. The family of five lived together. Mila was very tired and had to tidy up the house every day. Emily was naughty. With her around, things were messy, and garbage was everywhere on the floor. Mila had to clean up every day. Mila also looked up.
Her eyes were filled with the vicissitudes of life. She looked at the house in front of her and smiled.
This place would really be her home in the future. âJudy, letâs go back. I have put a watermelon in the refrigerator. The dinner was a little salty. Eat some watermelon and youâll feel more comfortable.â After Mila finished speaking, she went into the house with Judith. Judith smiled with bright eyes as she followed Mila back. âMom, Mr. Williams is deeply in love with you. I donât want you to miss your happiness.â Judith suddenly said. Mila glanced at her, smiled, and did not speak. She was already beginning to accept Keven. â Seeing her mother fall silent, Judith just smiled. Lucas and Emily sat in the living room, watching TV. On the beige sofa, they sat on each side, and neither of them talked to the other. When Judith saw this, she felt rather helpless. Emily was still angry at Lucas. Emily still had a resentful look on her face. She seemed to be cross. Mila could also see that they were angry at each other, but she was already used to this kind of thing.
Emily had a quick temper, but she was very kind and sensible. Lucas didnât mean to hurt her. Mila went to the refrigerator to take the watermelon. After the family ate the fruit, they went back to their respective rooms to wash up and rest. Now that the three children all had their own independent rooms, they could all sleep on their own. Judith was living alone in a large room on the half floor. The decoration of her room was very simple. It was pasted with wallpaper and decorated with a set of white furniture. There was a bathroom in it. Judith liked this kind of bedroom. She would be very happy even if she had to stay at home for a month. Only in a nice house could people stay long. After bathing and drying her hair, Judith picked up the phone on the dressing table and took a look. After lighting up the screen, she saw Gary make a dozen or so calls, but she did not hear a single one.
