"Nursing home?"
"Yes, and that's why I can't contact my mother right now. Kate told the caretaker to have the phone, so my mother won't get any bad news since she's still recovering."
"The caretaker also refused to give the phone back to my mother, because Kate lied to her that I have a history of mental illness and often forget to take my medication," Erin gritted her teeth but then stopped after realizing that gritting her teeth only amplified the pain on her cheeks. "Since I can't threaten Kate to call our mother anymore, she dared to attack me, slapping and kicking me in the face. What a horrible woman."
"I never knew that she could be that crazy," Matt murmured. "After all, you've never harmed her, right?"
"Yes, I never harmed her," Erin rolled her eyes. "All I did was just request her to do what I want. It's harmless, and it's her duty as a big sister to help me."
Matt nodded in agreement.
