Still Wanna Escape After Stealing My Heart? novel Chapter 586

Ruth startled and jerked forward. Both Sabrina and Yvonne turned around to find a woman in her fifties running towards Ruth.

Ruth immediately hid behind Yvonne, her voice trembling as she was on the edge of a breakdown. " Mom, what are you doing here? It's already been two days. How can you still be angry at me? I came close t o starving to death and Yvonne took me in. The Human Resources decided to forgive me and notified me to come back to work. I have my job back now and I really know how wrong I had been, can't you just let i t go?"

"You incompetent idiot!" the woman cursed.

Ruth froze at the foul language that was used against her. "What did you just call me, mom?"

"I called you an incompetent idiot! A shameless idiot! Give me those skin-care products!" the woman barked furiously.

Despite her reluctance, Ruth extended her hands along with the bag in her hands towards the woman, trembling as she did. "Mom, are you going to give these to my cousin? I don't get it, why do you treat my cousin so much better than you do me? Is it just because she lost her parents when she was a child? Even if her folks aren't around anymore, she is still spoiled by her aunt and the old Master Shaw whereas

I live like a servant in comparison to her. Mom, doesn't it hurt you even a bit to see your own daughter suffer like this? Would you even care if I were to tell you that I came close to getting raped in some dark alley after you chased me out the day before yesterday?"

At that very moment, Ruth seriously doubted if she really was the biological daughter of her parents. She looked doe-eyed at the woman with tears threatening t o scroll down her cheeks.

The woman sneered without responding to Ruth's question. She simply snatched the bag away from Ruth's hands and muttered smugly. "With these, Mindy will be able to use high-end skin-care even if she can't afford them!"

With a lump in her throat, Ruth paused for a moment before tears finally dropped in her devastation. "Are you really my mother? Are you?!"

The woman scanned Ruth from head to toes, before commanding bossily, "So you are back here to work. That’s not so bad. Your cousin's credit cards have all been cancelled, your salary will have to be enough to cover her daily expenses. I'm going now! Don't bother coming home if you don't have anything important to say!"
