The world begins with shameless people

2113 North Wallace Street.

Kevin stood at the back door with a cigarette in his mouth, looking at the charred car outside the fence of Gallagher's backyard, feeling puzzled.

Who burned it?
Why did a good car burn down? What a waste.

After wondering for a while, Kevin looked away and looked at Ethel who was growing vegetables in his backyard.

Ethel was wearing a hat that didn't match Chicago, but was very suitable for farm work, and she was busy with her work contentedly.

Kevin couldn't help but worry as he watched.

It has been almost a week since Ethel came here, but she still hasn't made any friends. She spends all day doing housework or growing vegetables. This is not good. At this age, she should be playing happily...

After worrying for a while, Kevin walked downstairs towards Ethel.

"Ethel, let me take you to the basketball court to play. There are many kids your age there. You can make some friends," Kevin said a little unnaturally as he was not good at this kind of thing.

Ethel smiled slightly and shook her head, "These vegetables still need my care. They can't leave. If I leave, they will die."

Kevin looked at the vegetables and felt a headache, "Then when you finish your work, I will take you to play?"

Ethel thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay."

Kevin breathed a sigh of relief, smiled happily, and turned around to return to the house.

At this time, Ethel gritted her teeth and called Kevin, "Mr. Kevin..."

Kevin immediately turned back and looked at Ethel, "What's wrong?"

"I have a request, I wonder if I can tell it?" Ethel said cautiously.

Kevin bared his teeth and smiled very cutely, "Of course, you say so."

Ethel was silent for a moment, "Mr. Kevin, I want my son Jonah to come here to see me, is that okay?"

The words hit my ears.

Kevin was dumbfounded, and a silly smile froze on his face, "What?"

"My son Jonah, I want you to help call the social worker and ask the social worker to bring him here to meet me. I miss him, can you?" Ethel lowered his head and said in a panic.

Kevin's head was buzzing as he looked at Ethel. He couldn't turn around and was so shocked.

no way.

Ethel is only thirteen years old.

After a short while, Kevin regained his composure and asked in disbelief, "Do you have a son?"

Ethel nodded, "Well, his name is Jonah."

Kevin: "...Ethel, please tell me in detail."

A few minutes later.

"Jesus!" Finally understanding Ethel's situation before she came here, Kevin felt that his outlook on life had been subverted, and his face was full of shock and surprise.

2114 North Wallace Street.

The cancer cells spread further and her condition became more and more serious. Peggy, who was in pain all over her body, looked at the various unique products on the coffee table and felt extremely tempting. She had the urge to end her life early and did not want to delay it any longer.

at the same time.

Frank, who was not far away, stared at the unique products with bright eyes. He felt very tempting and wanted to get them.

"Mom, do you want me to give you a bath?" Not long after, Frank proposed to Peggy with an eager look on his face because he wanted those unique products so much.

Peggy heard this and gave Frank a disgusted look, "Okay."

About ten minutes later.

Frank pushed Peggy into the bathroom, then, with an excuse, returned to the living room, eagerly opened the plastic bottles containing the unique products, and poured a few capsules of the unique products out of each bottle. Then, he swallowed a few pills in one breath and hid the rest in his pocket.

huh~~~
After swallowing the unique product, Frank smiled brightly and let out a long sigh of relief.

Cool!
With this refreshing feeling, Frank lay down on the sofa, too lazy to move at all.

Peggy waited in the bathroom for a short while, but failed to wait for Frank to come back. She got angry and said, "Frank! Where are you?"

Frank heard it and kept silent, minding his own business. Peggy called several times, but received no response. She became so angry that her old face turned ferocious, she stopped screaming, gritted her teeth, turned the wheelchair, and moved out.

After a while, Peggy saw Frank lying on the sofa, obviously high, and realized what Frank had done.

Peggy's eyes fell on Frank, and for a moment, Peggy's eyes were on fire. Then, her eyes moved quickly and she saw the broom.

Peggy stood up without a trace of ink, endured the pain, then took the broom one step at a time, walked to Frank, swung the broom and hit Frank.

Frank, who had his eyes closed, was shocked. He immediately opened his eyes and dodged while shouting, "Mom! What are you doing? You are crazy!!"

Peggy didn't respond and continued to fight!

Frank rolled to the ground and said anxiously, "You old madman, why are you so crazy??"

Shouting, Frank stood up from the ground on his hands and knees.

The next second, Frank grabbed all the unique items on the coffee table without hesitation and ran away to the back door, "You're crazy! Just wait here to die! I won't serve you anymore!!"

In a blink of an eye.

Frank rushed out of the house and into the backyard, cursing, "Crazy bitch! I hope you rot in there..."

Frank cursed and walked very fast.

In the backyard next door, Kevin and Ethel both saw this scene clearly and heard Frank yelling.

Looking at Frank like this, Kevin couldn't help but shook his head, feeling very sad.

Frank also saw Kevin and Ethel at this time, shook his long hair, grinned, very proud.

After laughing, Frank hurried straight to Aleb.

Night falls.

Xiuer Chinese Restaurant.

Bianca got off work early today, so she walked into the kitchen a little nervous and uneasy.

Ding Xiu was busy making dinner. When he saw Bianca, he immediately smiled and said, "Ms. Green, have a good evening."

Bianca looked at Ding Xiu, gritted her teeth, and became even more nervous, "Good evening..."

"What's wrong with you? Did you get into trouble?" Bianca's behavior was really interesting, Ding Xiu joked.

Bianca immediately shook her head, "No, how could that be possible..."

"Then tell me what's going on with you," Ding Xiu was really curious.

Bianca was silent for a few seconds, took a deep breath silently, then turned her head slightly, without looking at Ding Xiu, and said, "I just told my parents about having dinner together tomorrow night...at our house, May I?"

Haha.

It turned out to be the case.

"That's it?" Ding Xiu was extremely happy.

Bianca pursed her lips, nodded, and then added bravely, "My sister might also come..."

"Your sister should be as beautiful as you, right?" Ding Xiu couldn't help but tease.

"???" Bianca heard this, blinked subconsciously, stared at Ding Xiu, and doubted her own ears, "What did you say?"

"Hey, you heard wrong, I didn't say anything," Ding Xiucan smiled and pretended to be stupid.

Bianca was not easy to fool, she immediately glared and said unhappy, "My sister already has a child, what is going on in your head!"

Haha.

You can't talk nonsense about a young woman or anything like that.

Ding Xiu smiled slyly and did not respond.

Seeing Ding Xiu's reaction, Bianca, who was already very familiar with Ding Xiu, was immediately sure that Ding Xiu was definitely thinking about something bad. She got so angry that she said, "Ding Xiu!!"

"Okay, okay, I'm teasing you, don't be impatient," Ding Xiu said in a confused way. (End of chapter)
