Alice had already completed all the procedures and was ready to board the plane.
Capital City.
The Armstrong Clan.
Although Sabrina Sabir had taken her daughter Christina Armstrong to the hospital for a check-up, confirming that her daughter was still a virgin, she still felt uneasy.
“Christina, be honest with me, did you really not find a boyfriend at the factory?”
“No!” Christina Armstrong said.
Sabrina Sabir narrowed her eyes, warning, “If you dare to mess around outside, I will break your legs and marry you off to Blind Wang at the entrance of the village!”
Sabrina Sabir was hot-tempered, and she really could do such a thing.
Hearing this, Christina Armstrong didn’t know how to feel.
Very suffocating.
Somewhat breathless.
“I understand,” Christina Armstrong said.
Sabrina Sabir placed the fried egg into George Armstrong’s bowl next to her and sighed, “If only you were half as sensible as your brother, I wouldn’t have to worry so much!”
Christina Armstrong glanced at the egg in George Armstrong’s bowl.
Her eyes were obscure and unclear.
It was always like this.
Whenever there was something good to eat at home, it was always George who got it first.
Even if it was just a fried egg.
These were just the obvious things.
There were also the unseen things.
If her brother was not at home, their family of three would just casually eat some pickles to get by, but when her brother was home, their mother would cook.
Christina Armstrong took a bite of the greens in her bowl; it was like chewing wax.
She didn’t understand.
They were all children, so why was there such a big difference in their mother’s heart.
Sabrina Sabir looked at Christina Armstrong, “Your elder aunt’s children Mo and Snow are both high-achieving students. Mo just bought a large apartment in Capital City, and Snow is a junior leader at her company, not needing to do much every day. Your younger aunt’s daughter Isla didn’t do well in school, but she’s lucky! Now she is a comic book author and has her own house and car in Capital City.”
“Your brother is also a college student at a prestigious university, but you are the most useless one in our family! What can you do? You have no education, no abilities, and no luck!”
There was no particular expression on Christina Armstrong’s face.
Indeed.
She was the most useless.
Her blood brother was a high-achieving student, and those cousins were all exceptional.
But her mother never considered the fact that she hadn’t even graduated from middle school.
Her mother had deprived her of the right to education, and now she hated her for her low educational level and lack of capabilities.
It was ridiculous.
Christina Armstrong put down her chopsticks and looked at Sabrina Sabir.
Seeing her like that, Sabrina Sabir frowned, “Why are you looking at me like that?”
Christina Armstrong smiled and said, “Nothing.”
She didn’t want not to express all her grievances.
But after she did, her mother would only act even more aggrieved than she was.
Some words were better left rotting in one’s stomach.
A moment later, Christina Armstrong stood up from her chair, “I’m off to work.”
“Go on then.” Just then, Sabrina Sabir seemed to remember something and added, “I heard that your factory is handing out bonuses today. Come home early tonight and don’t go messing around outside just because you have a little money.”
“I know.”
Christina Armstrong turned and left.
Watching Christina Armstrong’s departing figure, Sabrina Sabir’s face was full of disdain. A moment later, she turned to George Armstrong, “Your sister, always like a debt collector!”
George Armstrong didn’t say anything, just bit into his fried egg and immediately frowned, “It’s too salty! How did you cook this?”
Sabrina Sabir was taken aback, “Is it too salty? I didn’t add much salt!”
“I’m not eating it!” George Armstrong put down his chopsticks and was about to leave.
Sabrina Sabir immediately grabbed George Armstrong’s sleeve, “George, George, mommy was wrong! I will definitely cook it properly tomorrow!”
A moment later, Sabrina Sabir continued, “I didn’t say it outright when your sister was home, but I also made some steamed duck, I’ll get it now, have some steamed duck.”
Steamed duck, such a delicacy, was naturally not for Christina Armstrong to enjoy.
George Armstrong then sat down.
Sabrina Sabir turned to the kitchen.
Soon, she placed a plate of steamed duck in front of George Armstrong, smiling, “Eat up. See how mommy’s steamed duck tastes.”
George Armstrong picked up a piece of duck leg.
This time, his face showed no trace of distaste.
Sabrina Sabir continued, “George, do you have many male classmates around you?”
“Quite a few, why?” George Armstrong asked.
Sabrina Sabir’s eyes flashed with calculation, then she added, “Right, I remember you also know a Ph.D. student, right?”
“Yes,” George nodded.
Sabrina Sabir immediately asked, “Does that Ph.D. student of yours have a girlfriend?”
