As he was still sitting inside the car, Jordan sadly looked at her sister.
Half an hour later, Jordan got off the car and dragged Lola. She still hadn't given up so he pulled her
into the car.
"Brother, leave me alone. You go back first." Harry loved her so much, so he must be willing to listen to
her explanation!
She frantically tried to get off from the car.
Jordan quickly locked the door, as he couldn't allow himself to see his sister begging that man. He had
too much of this.
"Brother, let go of me! Please." Unable to open the door, Lola was already in a panic.
Without looking at his sister, Jordan drove off from the mansion.
On the way back, Lola became so quiet. She closed her eyes and leaned back on her seat, covered by
gloom and despair.
When they arrived at the hospital, only Harold and Joseph were left there. Angie went to the hotel with
the two pregnant women. They needed to take some rest as too much stress would eventually spell
danger for their health.
Noticing that Lola seemed like she had lost her soul, the two men knew that nothing good happened in
their trip to the manor.
Three days later
Except for Joseph and Lola, everyone had returned to A Country.
When Lola was discharged from the hospital, she opted to stay in a hotel first. With the curtains drawn,
she stayed in the room all day, without eating nor drinking. She rarely did anything and would always
stare blankly at the ceiling.
For the sake of Lola, Joseph asked for a week of leave from work to take care of her. When Lola
figured everything out, he would send her back to A Country.
What annoyed Joseph the most was that she didn't eat nor drink.
But because of his constant persuasion, Lola finally ate some hot meal to warm her aching stomach.
At the seventh day after Rose's death, her mourning hall was to be held at the old house.
Changing into a black dress, Lola let Joseph take her there.
The weather was really gloomy. It felt like it was going to rain at any time of the day.
Lots of people came here to pay their deep respect for Rose, and they were all surprised to see Lola.
With Joseph on her side, Lola went toward the mourning hall with a bouquet of white chrysanthemum
in her arm.
At the mourning hall
There was a character, which means filial, on Harry's black shirt.
Standing with a woman in white suit, he stared sadly at the portrait of Rose.
Lola heard what Harry was saying, "Mom, I was a disobedient child and was so stupid to believe in an
immoral person, causing you to leave at this young age..."
Burning a joss paper for the memory of his mother, he added, "If you would be so happy to see Cherry
and I be together, well then... I promise you that I will get along well with her. You have my words,
mother."
Hearing this, Lola unintentionally dropped the flowers on the ground.
"Lola Li!" A harsh voice rang out from behind them.
When Kevin saw Lola, he started to lose his temper again.
Harry and Cherry turned around and faced Lola as soon as they heard Kevin's voice.
She had become thin and pale. She was staring at the couple not far from her. Under her feet were
scattered petals.
Harry glanced at her coldly, then opened his mouth and shouted, "Call security! Get her out of here!"
People around him instantly went out to call the security.
She pretended to not hear what he just said. Lola slowly made her way into the mourning hall.
"Harry, could you let me explain to you? Please, just give me a chance to defend myself." Lola did not
intend to cry. Yet, the moment that she saw him closer, she couldn't help but shed some tears.
Harry was disgusted to look at her, so he turned around, leaving her with only the view of his back.
Cherry witnessed this sad scene and didn't know if she should confront this skinny and obviously
depressed woman in front of her.
Forget it. She didn't want to let Lola think that she was showing off. She'd better not do it.
The security team entered the hall and abruptly took her out.
Then a little figure ran frantically towards Lola.
"Mommy!" For Lola, Nicole's innocent voice was like a heaven-sent melody.
She struggled to get rid of the guard's grip and tried her best to run to her daughter. "Nicole! Nicole! My
sweetheart. How are you?"
Lola hugged Nicole and held her tightly in her arms.
Everyone stopped what they were doing, but nobody dared to step into the mourning hall.
"Mommy." Nicole also cried sadly, because people had said that it was her mommy who killed her
grandma.
She didn't believe it, though. Her mother would not do such thing.
"Mommy, it was not you, right? Why don't you tell daddy?" She asked Lola in a lonely voice.
More tears flowed down Lola's cheeks. Even Nicole, a mere three year old child, believed her. She
answered her sadly. "Nicole, it was not mommy. You're right. Mommy didn't..."
A distant voice cut her off, destroying the beautiful but sad scene between the mother and her
daughter.
"Security, what the hell are you doing? Get her out!"
When Lola heard this voice, she shivered and held her daughter even more tightly, unwilling to
separate with her. She had become so desperate.
Nicole had an idea on what would happen and hugged Lola. She cried out loud, "Mommy, I don't want
to be away from you! He is a bad daddy! I love you more, mommy!"
Lots of guests witnessing the scene started to wipe away their tears in secret.
As the security saw them in such a loving act, they didn't know what to do and had to sadly persuade
her, "Lola, please leave. Don't let us be in trouble!"
As if not hearing what he said, Lola said to Nicole, "Nicole, leave with mommy, OK? I will take you out
of here!" ...
Lola turned her tears into smiles as Nicole nodded gratefully. She picked her up and was going to leave
toward the door.
Suddenly, she was grabbed by a strong force and was unable to take another step.
"You want to take away my child? Lola, that's impossible! Give her to me!" Without giving her a chance
to say anything, Harry took the child out of her arms and Lola anxiously dragged him.
"Give back my child!" She wanted nothing more in this world but to be with her daughter every single
day of her life.
Harry gave her a sarcastic laugh and answered, "Lola, you let me have the experience of being
separated from my mother forever. Well, then I will let you know how it feels when you can never see
your daughter again!" After this, he powerfully got rid of her hand.
Failing to keep her balance, Lola painfully fell on the ground.
"Daddy, I want Mommy! Let me go!" Nicole cried and struggled in Harry's arms when she saw her mom
fall on the ground. She cried harder while she was pounding Harry's chest endlessly.
Harry held Nicole steady and looked at Lola with so much hatred. He warned he, "Lola, I warned you
already. Don't show up in C Country again!"
Joseph was waiting outside when he heard the noise and felt that something was wrong. As he went
into the mourning hall, he happened to see that Lola was pushed to the ground by Harry.
"Sister!" He ran to Lola with just a few strides and helped her stand up.
"Uncle! Uncle!" Nicole was naive to think that Joseph could save the day and stop the security from
taking her mother away.
Lola stood up, and rushed toward Harry like crazy.
She pushed him with all the strength she can muster and Harry was forced back a half step.
He angrily pulled the woman away, preventing her to take his daughter away. He pushed her to the
ground once again.
"Mommy!" Nicole cried heavily and her screams echoed in the hall.
