Chapter 482: 171: I’ve never lost in my entire life, but I lost to a kid! _6
“I’m sorry, Mr. Sanders.”
The old man angrily hung up the phone.
How annoying!
On the other side.
Olsand Village.
Dolores Frieman thought Rachel Barton would take her words to heart and escape this hell on earth in time.
But to her surprise, she did not hear of Rachel’s escape, but of Rachel’s upcoming wedding instead.
It was scheduled for the eighteenth of this month.
Dolores, feeling helpless, took advantage of a quiet moment to seek Rachel out again.
“Rachel!” Dolores looked at her, “They’ve already set your wedding date to Zachary Mayhew on the 18th! What will it take for you to believe me? Is the money I gave you not enough? If it’s not, I’ll find a way to get you more!”
Dolores was anxious now; there were only a few days left until the18th.
The longer Rachel stays here, the more dangerous it is for her.
She must leave immediately!
Eighteenth?
Wasn’t that the day her parents planned to host a College Admission Celebration Banquet for her and invite the entire village for a feast?
Rachel looked at Dolores as if she realized something.
The reason Dolores did this must be because she was so envious of Rachel’s success in getting into college. Beatrice Black once told her that Dolores’ greatest wish when she was mentally sound was to go to college.
“Sister, this is the money you gave me last time.” Rachel returned all the money Dolores had given her and then said, “Sister, I know you’ve always been hostile towards our parents, but they had no choice.”
Beatrice had already explained everything to her.
Dolores’ illness comes and goes; in her lucid moments, she resents her parents for marrying her off to an old man.
And that’s why she’s trying to drive a wedge between Rachel and her parents over and over again.
But Dolores must understand that she is mentally ill.
No sane person would accept her.
Although Sid Winslet is a bit older, he is at least mentally sound and can provide Dolores with a warm home.
Her parents can’t support her for the rest of her life.
“What do you mean?” Dolores looked at Rachel, “Do you think I’m sick?”
Rachel tried to explain, “I don’t mean…”
Mentally ill people never admit they are sick; if they get angry, they might even resort to violence.
Dolores took a deep breath, “Listen, I’m not sick. When I was 18, I was sold to that old widower by Beatrice Black and Gregory Diet for 100,000 yuan. I used to be just like you, full of dreams about the future. I wanted to go to college and leave these mountains. But I wasn’t you; fate didn’t give me such a good opportunity.”
By the end, Dolores’ eyes reddened.
As for now, she can leave these mountains.
But she has two children.
If she leaves, what will happen to her children?
She didn’t have a good set of parents herself; she couldn’t let her own children live without a mother.
Rachel looked at Dolores, and if she hadn’t learned in advance that this person was mentally ill, she might have been fooled by Dolores’ brilliant acting.
In the end, Dolores said, “You’d better leave before it’s too late!”
“Sister, I understand that our parents have a tough time too, but people need to learn to empathize.” Rachel continued, “If you were in their shoes, you might not be doing any better.”
“Do you have a phone?”
“Yes.” Rachel nodded.
Dolores continued, “I’ll give you your second sister’s phone number. Call her yourself and ask what kind of people your parents really are!”
“My second sister?” Rachel frowned slightly.
She felt that Dolores’ illness was getting worse.
Delia Frieman had a serious car accident in Giseda City and was still in a coma; her parents were planning to visit Delia after the College Admission Banquet on the 18th.
But now, Dolores claims Delia can answer the phone!
Isn’t that nonsense?
“Call your second sister!” Dolores continued, “No one in the family hates her more than those scumbags! Do you know what your second sister does in Giseda City?”
“My second sister is in charge of a foreign company.”
In charge of a foreign company?!
Dolores burst out laughing, “Is that what they told you too?”
Rachel nodded.
Dolores laughed and then cried, “I’ll tell you, your second sister’s freedom is restricted in Giseda City. She can’t go home because she works as a prostitute in the red-light district, you fool!”
Rachel felt it was unnecessary to continue talking to an insane person.
