"Uncle, you don't have to say it." Scarlett Xavier glanced at Julian Rhodes, took her phone, and left the bedroom. Outside, she said to Uncle Meng, "I know that all these years, you've been trying to ease the tension between me and my mother. But she doesn't like me, and that's something we can't change. I'm very grateful for all the care you've given me over the years. I'm grown up now, and I'll take care of myself. I won't go back to that house again!"
"Scarlett." Uncle Meng sighed, "No matter what, she is still your mom... you shouldn't be at odds with your mother..."
"Enough." Scarlett said, "Please don't say any more."
Uncle Meng was not her biological father and wouldn't treat her like her mother did.
But as for her mother?
Without comparison, there is no pain.
Scarlett didn't want to continue discussing this topic.
She quickly hung up the phone.
