Then, she could only watch helplessly as the car turned into a tiny speck of light in the night, until it disappeared.
She had been abandoned again.
It's okay, it's okay, she still had her second brother; he would certainly not ignore her.
Charlotte Green picked herself up off the ground, grateful that she still had her phone in her hand.
She dialed the number with hope, and after the call connected, the monotonous beeps knocked against her heart, one after the other.
Finally, after the fifth ring, the phone was picked up—
"Charlotte, I really have to thank you for your help..."
"Uncle, can you come..."
Before she could finish, she was interrupted from the other side, "Charlotte, your uncle has things to deal with. Another day, I will treat you to a meal, alright, that's all!"
"Uncle, don't hang up! Uncle..."
Beep... Beep... Beep...
However, her desperate call had been ruthlessly cut off.
Why? Why wouldn't he listen to her till the end?
