Chapter 5 Alienation

Valerie nibbled the corn cob while thinking about what would happen in the coming years.

With her immature hands, she wrote on the blank paper she had gotten from Jayvion.

“At the age of 7, Galen Fisher, who was once a general, retired and let his eldest grandson enter the military for further education.

“At the age of 8, people started paying attention to short videos. I can start from here…

“At the age of 9, Zoe entered a prestigious school, but there were not enough spots, so they sent me to a public school.

“At the age of 10, there was a flood in the coastal area during the summer, submerging a city. How much money did the Horton family donate? Well, it doesn’t matter to me…”

Valerie vaguely remembered the most memorable things from her past, but there were things she couldn’t recall

Valerie gave up thinking about it.

The blank paper was not filled up.

Valerie sighed with regret.

In her previous life, she always wanted to improve her relationship with her family and didn’t pay much attention to the outside world.

Valerie just heard something major.

She regretted it!

Valerie thought, “Well, I will just wait and see. The only thing I can do is focus on short videos and see if I can develop something from them.

Even if I fail, it doesn’t matter. I have done a lot of jobs before.”

Valerie once even lived in a shack that cost 25 dollars. This was no big deal.

After washing up, Valerie lay in bed. She carefully folded the paper and placed it under her pillow before falling into a deep sleep.

Late at night, the study room in the Horton’s house was still brightly lit.

Kieran rubbed his weary eyes and habitually reached out to grab something next to him.

But he got nothing.

“Kieran, the milk is good for your sleep. You didn’t eat much. It’s a midnight snack prepared for you. Don’t work too hard.”

Valerie’s obedient look appeared in his mind.

Kieran gazed at Valerie today in the kitchen and noticed that the dark circles under her eyes became apparent.

Since when did Valerie insist on bringing him midnight snacks?

Kieran remembered that after taking the business from his father, a cup of milk would always be next to him.
