Chapter 1360 Depression

“I don’t have such a high state of mind,” Emmeline said with melancholy, looking up at the sky. “I just want to be

with Abel, whether it’s in this world or another.”

That night, Emmeline had a dream.

She dreamt that she was beneath a deep mountain cliff, with no one around for miles, The sky was vast and distant,

and her cries echoed only within her hearing. She was filled with fear, took out her phone, and tried to dial Abel’s

number, but she couldn’t make the call…

She woke up in fright from the dream, her body covered in cold sweat.

She couldn’t help feeling that the cliff was a place that existed in real life.

The next day…

Morning exercise was part of Emmeline’s routine.

After completing four laps of a five-hundred-meter run, her T-shirt was soaked with sweat.

“Oh, to be young,” an older lady who was going about her morning exercise said with envy.

Emmeline jogged back home and found a bowl of oat porridge, a hard-boiled egg, and a bun her mother had

prepared for her on the table.

Were eggs considered vegetarian or non-vegetarian?

Regardless, Emmeline didn’t mind, so her mother insisted that she eat two every day.

“Mom, I’m heading to work.”

After having her fill, Emmeline went to the balcony and handed her mother a cup of freshly brewed tea.

There were tears in her mother’s eyes; she had been crying.

“Mom, what happened? It’s only early in the morning. Emmeline’s mind was suddenly clouded with

worry.

“My coworkers were talking about me behind my back, and it hurt my feelings,” Kimberly sobbed.

Emmeline was confused. “You’ve all been retired for two or three years now. Who has the time for such nonsense?”

“I knew you wouldn’t believe me,” her mother said, wiping away her tears.

“It was that year in the changing room when Jessica’s wallet went missing, and the next day, they all looked at me

strangely, suspecting me of being a thief,” Kimberly said seriously.

A sense of panic washed over Emmeline. Has Mom’s depression hit her again and worsened at that?

She kneeled down in front of her mother, holding her knees.

“Mom, it’s been many years since that incident. Those who are innocent have nothing to worry about. Why are you

blaming yourself for something that happened so long ago?”

“You and your father are just the same, never really listening to what I have to say!”

“Mom, you can’t allow people to converse. It’s been so many years that everyone has practically forgotten about it!

Don’t dwell on these things, please.”

“I knew you wouldn’t believe me! You also think I stole that wallet, don’t you?!”

Emmeline was stunned, and she dared not speak further. She realized that her mother’s depression had worsened,

and her mental state was severely affected.

“Mom, what do you want me to do?” After a pause, she asked cautiously, “Should I take you to the hospital?”

“You silly child. I’m completely fine. Why go to the hospital?” Her mother gently ruffled her head. “It’s time for you

to go to school.”

“Mom, did you have trouble sleeping again last night?”

“I don’t know what it’s like to feel sleepy anymore,” her mother said. “My eyelids just won’t close together.”

“Why don’t you lie down for a while now and take a rest?”

Emmeline noticed the dark circles and deep hollows under her mother’s eyes.

“Okay, I’ll rest when you leave for work, her mother agreed.

“Alright.” Emmeline stood up to leave but couldn’t help worrying. “Mom, for lunch, I’d like vegetarian taquitos. Can

you make them at home? Don’t go anywhere.”

“Sure. her mother nodded. “You can have vegetarian ones, and your dad can have beef taquitos.

“We agreed. No going out anywhere, okay?”

“Yes!” Her mother smiled and nodded.

Emmeline finally left for school.

Emmeline’s desk was right across Ysabel’s. Ysabel was in her early thirties, very beautiful, with golden- brown curly

hair and a captivating presence.

When Emmeline returned from a business trip to Sandwell, she had given Ysabel a dress, which seemed to have

alleviated the awkwardness between them.

As the bell for class rang, Ysabel hastily left with her teaching materials. In the teacher’s office, only Emmeline

remained.

“Ysabel Hemmings! You witch, get out here!” Someone called from the corridor, and then a large woman stormed

in like a whirlwind.

Ysabel Hemmings! You shameless woman!” The woman lunged at Emmeline and slapped her.
