Chapter 61: Chased Out
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Old Madam Walton was expressionless. Even if someone said that she was disrespectful for interfering in her son’s family matters today, she would still chase Sarah out!
“Mother Taylor, call someone over and throw her things out!” Old Madam Walton said.
Mother Taylor hurriedly got someone to drag Sarah’s things out and throw them outside the manor. Sarah was stunned. This old lady… was she serious? Sarah did not believe that Old Madam Walton would be so ruthless in front of the children. All along, Emma and Harper had been Sarah’s shield. Every time there was an argument, she would just pull Emma out to cry.
“Mom, we’re in front of the children. Calm down,” Sarah said. “I know you…
“Don’t call me Mom! Get out!” Old Madam Walton interrupted her coldly. Sarah choked and felt a little embarrassed. There were so many servants and bodyguards around.
Old Madam Walton did not give Sarah any time to think and directly got someone to chase her out. Sarah was anxious and angry as she shouted,
“Emma! Emma! How dare you guys treat me like this! Emma, come with me!”
The bodyguard tugged at Sarah’s arm. “I’m sorry, Second Madam. You can’t take anything with you today.” With that, he dragged her out of the manor and slammed the door. These bodyguards were left behind by George. They only listened to Old Madam Walton and Old Master Walton. As for the security officers who let Jonathan and Rebecca in, they had long been fired.
Sarah was so angry that she was about to vomit blood! Her arm hurt! Her heart hurt! Everything hurt! Damn it, did Amelia say something to Old Madam Walton when she was not at home?
In the manor, Emma was so frightened by this scene that she stopped crying.
Tears were hanging from the corners of her eyes, and she looked pitiful.
Old Madam Walton’s temper flared up. She said coldly, “Don’t you like to cry? Then continue crying and fill this basin! You’re not allowed to stop until this basin is full!”
Emma was really scared this time. She burst into tears again. Previously, when she cried, it was 30% real and 70% fake, but this time, she cried for real. She held the basin with her small hand and kept crying. Her tears fell freely into the basin.
Old Madam Walton was also a stubborn person. She quietly watched her cry. The old and young were in a deadlock. In the end, Emma was tired of crying, but with Old Madam Walton watching, she did not dare to stop. She lowered her head again and saw that the bottom of the huge basin was not even filled. She immediately cried even harder. As she cried, she choked and said, “Grandma… I don’t want to cry anymore. I’m so thirsty. I want to drink water. I can’t fill the basin…’
Mother Taylor held back her laughter.
Old Madam Walton was both angry and amused. She asked her, “Are you really not crying anymore?
Emma sniffled and shook her head with red eyes. “I won’t cry anymore.” Old Madam Walton snorted and returned to her room.
Mother Taylor hurriedly went forward and said to Emma, “Miss Emma, come in. Go in and drink a glass of water.”
Emma’s eyes were red. She had never been treated like this before. In the past, whenever she cried, her mother and Grandma would satisfy her requests. But these few days, she seemed to have slowly understood that crying was not always useful. At least, it was useless in front of Grandma now.
Emma was brought into the living room by Mother Taylor. She sat on the sofa and drank water while hiccupping. The rest of the Walton family had not returned, and Sarah had been chased away. The huge house was empty, as if she was alone. Emma suddenly felt a little afraid. She had never experienced such a thing before. She felt as if she had been abandoned by the entire world.
Just as Emma was feeling helpless and afraid, a small figure ran down the stairs. Amelia handed Emma a lollipop. “Sister, this is for you.” She was still sleeping just now, but she was woken up by Emma’s cries. She leaned on the balcony and saw Emma holding a basin and crying.
Emma sniffed and turned her head. “I don’t want your candy.”
Amelia immediately retracted her hand. “Alright, I won’t give it to you.” Emma:
Amelia sat on the sofa beside her and swayed her feet. She asked curiously, “Sister Emma, did you fill the basin with tears?
It would have been better if she had not mentioned it. At the mention of it, Emma thought of that big washbasin. She felt that even if she cried until her eyes were blind, she would not fill that washbasin! Thinking of everything just now, the tears that she had just stopped fell uncontrollably again. Amelia hurriedly ran to the side and brought the washbasin over. She stretched it under Emma’s chin.. “Sister Emma, you can do it! Cry more! You’ll fill the washbasin eventually!
