Evelyn thought about what she should do next.
Since she had managed to avoid the limelight, Vivian was no longer hot on her trail.
Thus, this was the best time for her to take action.
With this in mind, a conceited look flashed across her eyes.
But since Rachel was still by her side, she could not act too arrogantly. Otherwise, her efforts would goto waste.
"So where do you stay now?" Rachel asked, thinking Evelyn had no place to live after listening to her sob story.
"I..." Evelyn stammered and pretended to act embarrassed.
Rachel immediately assumed that she had nowhere to stay.
As Evelyn's mother, she felt obliged to help.
However, considering her own physical health, she felt that she wasn't in the right state to help out. After pondering over this for a while, she said, "Why don't you come and live with me?"
At the same time, she was worried that Evelyn wouldn't be willing to take up her suggestion.
To her surprise, Evelyn agreed. "Thank you, Mom," she said with a smile on her face.
Evelyn's words were filled with emotions and sounded absolutely pleasing to Rachel's ears.
"Alright then. We're short of one bed in my room. Here, take this money and buy a good bed for yourself." Rachel took out a thousand bucks from a loose board on her bed frame and gave it to Evelyn.
Evelyn was the type of girl who placed high importance on aesthetics, so she planned to buy herself a comfortable and nice-looking bed.
"Okay." She took the money from Rachel since she didn't have much money of her own.
The notes were crumpled, and they smelt old and musky.
She then furrowed her brows without saying anything else.
Evelyn felt repulsed by Rachel and even more so by the money she offered.
