Translator: Henyee Translations   Editor: Henyee Translations
Amelia finally understood what was going on. It turned out that Brother William thought that Brother Harper was possessed by a ghost! Her small face was filled with speechlessness. She looked at Harper and William as if they were two fools.
âBrother Harper isnât possessed by a ghostâŠâ Amelia said. âBrother William, youâre mistaken.â
William still did not believe it. âHarper went out for two days and went from a devil to a warm brother. Itâs as if heâs a different person. How is that possible?! Heâs possessed by a ghost!â
Harper gritted his teeth. âCanât I turn over a new leaf? Have you never heard of a prodigal son?!â
William: âNo!â
Harper: âIdiot! Stinky idiot!â
Amelia: ââŠAlright, alright, stop arguing!â She held the ointment and clumsily applied medicine for Harper. She also put a Band-Aid on William. Then, she said softly, âBrother Harper, donât be angry. Brother William is just worried about you. If it were anyone else, he would have run away long ago.â Harper snorted.
Amelia added, âWho asked Brother Harper to be a bad child in the past?â
Harper sneered again and turned over to lie on the bed. He closed his eyes. Everyone said that he was a bad child, but⊠Harper asked, âHave you ever seen a bad child earn money to support himself?â
Amelia was silent for a moment, sitting to one side. âThen why?â
Harper was silent for a moment before saying, âDaddy and Mommy were pretty good when Emma wasnât born.â Although Dylan and Sarah werenât as close as the others, at least they were together.
Harper said, âBut everything changed after Emma was born.â Heâd heard his mother and grandmother arguing that his mother had schemed against his father to have him. Heâd also heard that his parents were getting a divorce. Theyâd argued. No one cared about his emotions. They even treated him like air. Later, his father started not coming home. His mother began to dote on his sister like crazy.
Amelia asked sympathetically, âAnd?â
Harper snorted. âThe first time I saw Emma, she cried the moment I touched her face. Mom was very angry. She turned around and slapped me. Later, as long as I got close to Emma, Mom kicked me outâŠâ There were countless times like this. When he was young, Harper saw how much Mom doted on his sister, so he tried to please Emma too. But every time Emma cried, Mom blamed him.
William was shocked. There was actually such a thing?
Harper said calmly, âWhen my sister cries, Mommy can hug my sister for the entire night without sleeping, but when Iâm sick, she doesnât even come to see me. Whatever my sister wants, she can just cry. Whatever I want, Mommy will say, youâre so troublesome, isnât she a mess already? She asked me if I could be more sensible.â
Slowly, Harper understood. He was redundant. It just wasnât right for him to reach out and take anything.
Harper: âOne night, it was raining outside. I woke up and wanted to close the window, but I was weak at that time and the window was not easy to close. I didnât use the right strength and fell down.â
Harperâs room was on the second floor, but the Waltonsâ house was very, very tall. It was still dangerous to fall from the second floor to the first floor. He fell with a bang. He hadnât been able to get up for a long time. He cried for his mother, but no one heard him. The rain was heavy. The servantsâ building was far from the main building. After Mr. Walton fell asleep, it was impossible to move. Mrs. Walton went to the sanatorium. George worked overtime at the company all year round. Dylan and Eric were also busy at the construction site and rarely came back. Not to mention the other Waltons. They were either busy with work or stayed in their apartments and didnât return to the Waltonsâ manor much.
Harper: â1 just lay there in the heavy rain for a long time. My entire body hurt. In the end, I crawled back. I went to knock on Momâs door. I probably woke my sister up. Her sister started to cry, and Mom started to flare up. She said that it wasnât easy for her to coax her sister to sleep, but I woke her up again and told me to get lost!â
At that time, Harperâs entire body was wet. His mother, Sarah, couldnât see. His entire body hurt. Her mother didnât ask him what was wrong. He could only go to his room and shower himself. After cleaning himself up, he even spat out a mouthful of blood. He curled up on the bed, had a high fever, and was sick.
No one knew how scared Harper was that night, how lonely and helpless he
was. Even during the two days when he was sick, his mother did not care about him. The servant told his mother that he was sick, and his mother said not to care, he was just spoiled.. How was he spoiled? He had never been
