Elizabeth had been drowsily sleeping at home for almost two days. She had not eaten anything and had only drank a few mouthfuls of water, if not for her mother bringing a large bag of food and snacks to see her, she would probably have starved herself to death at home.

"What do you look like now? Hiding in a corner and living a life in a daze, are you still my daughter? "As soon as her mother entered, she saw that the room was dark, so she quickly ran over and forcefully pulled the curtains. The strong light shone in, causing Elizabeth to quickly reach out to cover her eyes, unable to get used to the light.

"Mom, why are you here? Don't you have to take care of brother?" Elizabeth asked weakly.

"Why am I here? Surely, I'm here to see you! " As her mother spoke, she opened some of the food she had packed. "Come over and eat something. Don't be so hungry. Life won't collapse. If you don't eat something, you'll starve to death." "Mom, did aunt call you? She's gone again." Elizabeth crawled up from the bed and asked weakly.

"No, it's as if she disappeared from the world. Who knows where she went? Right, why is she hiding somewhere? Offended someone? Do you know anything about it?" Her mother asked curiously, because she didn't know anything about her sister either.

Of course, Elizabeth couldn't tell the truth to her mother. Otherwise, she would be so worried that she wouldn't be able to eat and sleep anymore.

Her mother came over and pulled her out of the living room. She placed her on the table and handed her a fork. "Eat quickly. If you it cold, you won't be able to eat anymore."

"Thank you, Mom!" Elizabeth said in a low voice as she tightly clenched her fork and silently ate her meal.

Her mother ran over to help her tidy up the room, mumbling as she did so, "This sister of mine really doesn't make me feel at ease, whether in the past or at present. I'm worried about what she'll do when she gets old."

"Mom, would you forgive aunt if she made a big mistake?" Elizabeth was going crazy for the last two days because of the pressure from her heart. Making a choice between family and love was an extremely cruel thing to begin with. Therefore, up until now, Elizabeth still could not make the right choice.

Her mother's movements became slower, as if she was thinking. Then, she taunted, "As long as she doesn't go to kill people, I can forgive her for any other mistakes." Elizabeth's hand that was holding onto the fork started to tremble, her beautiful eyes looked at her mother in surprise, would her mother really make such a choice? They were sisters.

"Mom, what if, I mean, if Aunt really killed someone? If you knew where she was, would you have called the police to get her?" Elizabeth urgently needed her mother to point out a path for her, so she won't be confuse any further.

Her mother frowned, then suddenly ran over, and stared at her: "Eliza, do you know what happened to your aunt? Tell me quickly, I'm really worried about her."

"I, I don't know. I was just making an analogy." Elizabeth's eyes flashed, and said with incomparable guilt.

"You fool, this kind of thing can't be easily joked about. If she really killed someone, then that would be the end of her life!" The white mother scolded with a smile. After Elizabeth heard her mother's words, her face was filled with despair. Then, she asked, "Mom, you still haven't told me the answer, will you call the police?"

"Call the police? Of course not, she's my sister, and even if she killed someone, I believe that she would have some kind of forgivable reasons. You know your aunt, other than being greedy for money, she has no other ailments, so if she killed someone by mistake or was used by someone else, it would be a different matter. In a word, I can't entrap my sister. Her mother's words were full of sincerity, but it was the answer that everyone thought of at the first moment.

She always felt that since she knew her family, she believed she wouldn't kill people for no reason. Even if she did kill someone, it wouldn't be intentional. There must be a reason for her to be forgiven. After Elizabeth heard her mother's words, she secretly heaved a sigh of relief. The dark clouds that had been pressing on her heart for the past few days had also dissipated. Maybe her decision may not be wrong, but it must not be right.

"Eat quickly!" Her mother hurriedly urged her on as she saw her in a daze.

"Mom, go back!" Elizabeth said softly.

"I worried about you!" Her mother immediately sat on the sofa. Although she had been busy taking care of her youngest son, Elizabeth's condition now made her extremely worried.

In the past, she had always been optimistic, positive, and always had a smile and confidence on her face, so she didn't worry about her at all. She was very confident in letting her roam the world.

But now, the smile on her face disappeared, as if she had been abandoned by the entire world. The shock and grievances she had suffered, her mother could also see that what Joshua had said to the camera was too hurtful.

Before, he loved her passionately, and was not afraid of the opinions of others. But now, he had abandoned her completely, without a shred of mercy. To a young girl who hadn't experienced any hardships, it was too hard to accept that she was suddenly forced to part with him.

"I'll be fine!" Elizabeth said softly.

"If you don't move back home and let me see you, I'll be able to relax!"

However, Elizabeth hurriedly shook her head. "No, I won't move back!"

Hearing that, her mother immediately said, "Do you still mind what your stepfather said last time?" Don't worry, if he really marries you to others for his own purpose, then I'll divorce him." When Elizabeth thought about the conditions that her stepfather had discussed with her earlier, she felt a chill run down her spine.

"Mom, forget it. Don't quarrel with him over me. In that family, if it weren't for me, you would still be able to live happily." Elizabeth knew that her mother would not dare to divorce her stepfather. Her brother was still young, and she still needed that man to provide her living expenses. So, she considerably decided not to make her mother feel difficult.

Her mother sighed, "It's all my fault. I can't protect you."

"Mom, you've already done very well!" Elizabeth comforted her softly.

Her mother lowered her head, sulking. She was not unsatisfied with her current life, but there were many things she could only think about, and could not do. For example, taking Elizabeth to live in her house. "Alright. Eliza, I will leave first. If you still need anything, I will send it over to you!" Her mother knew that Elizabeth wouldn't go out because many people wanted to see her and make a joke of herself. "Alright, I will!" After Elizabeth sent her mother away, she sat back down at the table, picked up her fork and picked up her favorite dish, putting it into her mouth to savor the taste. But why does it seem to be tasteless now?

Elizabeth switched on the television. As expected, the entire world was clamoring about her and Joshua.

There seemed to be no news in the showbiz that was more attractive than this.
