Chapter 304
"Mom..." Haven looked at Aisling's back sullenly. She did not have the chance to speak just now.
How dare Eden called her a dog?
Great!
Even though Haven's words were not as vicious as Eden, she would be more ruthless than Eden and would use shady means towards her.
She stomped her feet angrily and followed Aisling out of the alley.
Eden and Zofia went out of the alley.
Zofia took Eden to the vegetable market.
Eden didn't know the address. However, she was not worried because she had Zofia to lead the way.
Zofia looked at Eden apologetically. "Eden, I'm sorry for letting you suffer today."
She still felt bad that Eden had received the slap on her behalf.
Eden glanced at her with a smile and said, "Zofia, I’m fine. A person would become more tolerant after encountering countless grievances. It was nothing and you don't have to feel guilty! Aren't we friends?
Friends should share happiness and hardship
together." Eden smiled in a relaxed manner. She could let go of a lot of things now.
As a matter of fact, if she was angry with Aisling, that meant she still hadn't conquered herself yet.
She smiled and her mood eased up a lot. She would only tire herself if she cared too much about other people's opinions.
"You are really silly!" Zofia still looked at Eden guiltily.
Eden changed the topic and asked, "Zofia, do you really plan to leave here?"
A touch of sadness instantly rose on Zofia's face when she heard that. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
She glanced at Eden, lowered her head slowly and said in a sad tone, "Eden, you also know that the food stall is my mom's only income. The tuition fees for my brother would be gone if the food stall is destroyed by the Clement family.
I can't ruin my mother's only livelihood for my own sake. We are not wealthy and powerful. We can't beat them. It's better for me to suffer a little. The matter would also be solved."
Eden suddenly understood Zofia's thoughts when she heard that.
She suddenly gave a self-deprecating smile.
Sometimes people could not beat reality no matter how courageous they were.
Zofia was trying to protect her family by doing so.
Eden took a deep breath and asked, "Zofia, have you decided where to go?"
Zofia looked at her and shook her head with a bitter smile. "Eden, I don't have anywhere to go. The child is almost three months old and my belly will get bigger in a few months. If I continue to stay here, the neighbors will ridicule my mother.
My mother does not have an easy life. The business has finally stabilized and my family situation has improved a little. I can't let my mother be sad again because of my affairs."
Zofia did not have many friends. The few friends she had were married and had children. They were all busy with their own matters and did not have time to pay attention to her.
Anyway, she could live well on her own as long as the child in her womb was healthy, no matter where she went.
Eden smiled and said, "Zofia, why don't you come to my house?"
Zofia shook her head quickly. "Eden, I don’t want to cause trouble for you again."
Eden looked at her with a smile. "Zofia, you are pregnant now. If you live with me, it will be even more convenient after you give birth to the baby. I rarely work overtime so I can take care of you.
Besides, I have a lot of empty rooms. If you stay with me, you can talk to my mom when I go to work. She won't be lonely then."
Zofia also looked at her with gratitude and said, "Eden, thank you so much! You have helped me in my most difficult time. After I give birth to my baby, I will find a stall to sell my family's traditional delicacies to support myself and the child."
She had been searching for suitable stalls on the Internet the past few days. If she could find a stall within these few months, she could do business for another few months.
She was particularly confident in her family's traditional delicacies.
She could not bear to abort the child because she had a deep affection for Buddy.
She would contribute quietly and care for Buddy secretly!
Some relationships could not be restored once they were broken.
A relationship that was easily lost often did not belong to the person. Zofia would keep this relationship in her heart and make it a memory.
Eden smiled and said, "Zofia, take it easy. You
should take care of yourself and the child in your womb at the moment."
"Okay!" Zofia smiled and nodded.
Eden asked again, "When are you going to move in? I'll clean up a room for you when I go back."
"Eden, let's do it today! I have mentioned the matter to my mother before. She does not feel at ease if I live alone outside. However, I have made up my mind and she could not doing anything about it.
As for the child, she did not stop me from having it.
She said that women could raise their children even if they don't rely on men. As long as we are willing, we can face everything bravely."
"Zofia, you are right to think like this. You can go home to pack your things after we buy the vegetables. I will tidy up the room when I go back so you can stay there." Eden liked a lively atmosphere anyway. She had many rooms in her house and it could fit Zofia.
"Alright!" Zofia said with a smile. She was very grateful to Eden.
She would always remember Eden's help.
They bought some vegetables and went back home after that.
Zofia went back to pack her things while Eden brought the vegetables home.
It was exactly ten o'clock and was just the right time to make breakfast when Eden got home.
"Mom, I'm back." Eden shouted happily when she saw Jaida.
Jaida was going to cook when she saw that Eden had returned. She was instantly worried when she saw that Eden’s face was red and swollen. There were even traces of blood at Eden's ear.
She quickly walked over, took the vegetables from Eden and put them on the table beside her.
She asked, "Eden, tell me who hit you."
Eden quickly touched her face which had been slapped when she heard that.
She felt a numbing pain on her face and she was upset. Aisling's slap was really hard, causing her face to be still red and swollen.
She smiled and said, "Mom, I'm fine."
"Quickly tell me who hit you." Jaida didn't want Eden to get away with it like that.
She had sincerely regarded Eden as her daughter in the past seven years.
No one could bully her daughter.
Eden smiled and said, "Mom, I am really fine. I was just slapped by someone!" "Eden, who hit you?" Jaida asked persistently.
Kenny and Gia came out of their rooms when they heard Jaida’s harsh voice.
When Jaida saw that, she said, "Gia, Kenny, go to the second floor."
"Okay!" Giada glanced at Eden's face and turned to leave in distress.
Kenny also looked at Eden in distress and bit his lower lip hard.
Seeing that she couldn't escape, Eden could only tell Jaida what had happened today.
Jaida was shocked after Eden told her everything. "Eden, you said that Zofia's child belongs to Buddy?"
"That’s right!" Eden nodded. When she saw that Jaida was in deep thoughts, she said in confusion, "Mom, you seem to know Buddyjudging from your tone."
