“Mrs. Taylor, please open the door. I will give you some money after I leave so that you can have a comfortable life for the rest of your life. I promise that Marlon will not cause you any trouble.”
Mrs. Taylor was scared, her eyes kept looking towards the corner and finally she gave in.”
“Miss, why are you doing this? I watched you grow up, how could I bear to make you sad? I did not expect that you and your husband really could not go back.”
“There are cameras everywhere in this house. Follow me.”
As Mrs. Taylor spoke, tears welled up in her eyes.”
Yes, Mrs. Taylor had been working at home when my parents were still alive.
My hand went limp and the knife fell to the ground. It felt like I had grabbed the last straw.
Mrs. Taylor faked a picture of me resting, put me in a huge flower pot and pushed me out of the villa.
She put me down next to the garbage station and said carefully, “Miss, I’m going to go back and put Jake away. I’m sorry to ask you to wait here.”
I squatted in the flowerpot and looked up at the sky. Suddenly, a light rain began to fall in the gray–purple night.” Soon, I heard Jake’s bark.
As I poked my head out joyfully, I saw Mrs. Taylor’s panicked face. “Miss, hurry up. Your husband is coming back!“} The sound of Marlon’s luxury car door closing was heard from the front yard.”
I quickly climbed out of the flowerpot and ran down the mountain holding Jake’s hand.”
The villa area was halfway up the mountain, there was nowhere to hide and there were few cars passing by.”
If I could not escape this time, it was all over.
‘What should I do? Do I really want to sacrifice my child for his illegitimate child?‘ I kept asking in my heart.”
But I was not willing to accept this fate.”
The light of car lights came from behind and Mrs. Taylor rode her three–wheeled motorcycle to buy vegetables and caught up with me like a guardian angel.”
“Miss, get in the car quickly.”
Without thinking too much, I jumped onto the back of the three–wheeled motorcycle.
We let Mrs. Taylor take them for a ride in the night rain.”
At this time, Marlon, who had been searching the house, found that I was missing and immediately drove out to chase me.”
He was only a few hundred meters away from me.}]
Mrs. Taylor’s electric tricycle drove very fast and soon went down the mountain.}
But we were no match for Marlon’s million–dollar luxury car.
He quickly caught up with me, rolled down the window and shouted, “Margret, it’s too dangerous, come down quickly!!
“I did not go to find Melanie. You misunderstood. I bought you your favorite sour plums. I know you want to give birth to the child too, so let’s talk about it.”
My heart skipped a beat and the whistling wind in my ears seemed to take me back to twenty years ago.
At that time, he was still sitting on the bus and he also leaned out of the window, shook his pocket and said he bought plums for me.” He was scolded by the bus driver, but he turned around and smiled at me foolishly.”
I wiped the rain from the corners of my eyes and turned my head away.”
I took off the plain ring I had treasured for many years and threw it at his car window.
I never valued the diamonds and golds he gave me, but I was reluctant to throw away this ring that symbolized our initial love. “Marlon, go back. We are done!“}
