A Call That Changed Her Entire Life
Chapter 46 They Cheat Me
"I was worried about Dad, so…"
"Didn't I tell you not to come back? Your father is in the hospital, but he is feeling much better now. The follow-up treatment will require some more money…" Unable to come up with a good excuse, Debby's voice had a trace of guilt and nervousness.
Emily looked deeply into her eyes, and asked, "Mom, why are you lying to me? Dad is not sick at all, is he?"
Debby was completely nonplussed. "What did you say?
Why would I lie to you?"
"Fine, I believe you. Let's go to the hospital to see Dad now, " replied Emily.
"Emily, don't be in such a hurry. You must be tired from travelling…"
Emily said nothing; she just looked at her mother quietly. After a long pause, she asked, "Where is Dad now? In the gambling house?"
Debby's face stiffened. Her lips moved, but she could not speak of anything.
Emily knew that she had guessed correctly. With mixed feelings, she asked, "Why would you lie to me about such a thing? Do you know how worried I was?"
"Emily..." Debby lowered her head in shame and took Emily's hands. "Let's go inside and I can explain..."
"No, I'll go and get my father back now."
"No! I beg you!" Debby hugged her daughter and pleaded, "He'll be back home soon..."
Disappointed, Emily sighed deeply, and finally entered the house with Debby.
"Emily, I was forced to lie to you. Your Dad gambled a lot of money and ended up with a large debt... Our relatives didn't want to lend us the money, so we had to make up an excuse."
"But, I am your daughter, and you can tell me anything. Why would you keep something like that from me?" Emily couldn't hide the disappointment in her voice any longer. She realized that they never trusted her.
