Failed Mother: Her Daughter Was SpoiledChapter 1 Injured

I was thirsty at midnight. As soon as I opened the door, I found it pitch black outside.

Power outage? I wondered, but still groped my way downstairs.

Just as I reached the stairs, I heard a rustling sound on the first floor. It must be my daughter Angela playing late again.

"Angela? Are you downstairs?"

The person downstairs was panicked. I thought it was not good. The safe was on the first floor. I was afraid that a thief had entered.

I panicked and felt a void under my feet, falling down the stairs one after another.

A sharp pain came from my calf, and every part of my body hurt like hell. I screamed in pain.

"Oh, help, it hurts so much!"

The commotion downstairs stopped, and the next second I heard the sound of the door slamming shut with a "bang".

I felt a bad feeling in my heart.

At this time, Kathy came out of the second-floor room and hurried over when she saw me fall.

"Mom, are you okay? I'll take you to the hospital right away."

I pushed Kathy away, feeling uncomfortable. She had been in my house for more than half a year, and I had never been so close to her before.

I said lightly. "Why don't you go wake up Gertie? I don't want to trouble you."

Kathy became anxious immediately.

"Gertie is old and definitely can't carry you."

Before I could refuse, Kathy carried me on her back and carefully walked downstairs.

But as soon as we arrived at the garage, we were dumbfounded.

All the cars in the house had been sent for maintenance, and Angela took the only one left.

I didn't want to trouble Kathy anymore.

"Kathy, please put me down. I'll call the driver to pick me up."

But Kathy shook her head. She took out her phone, called an Uber, and then carried me to the entrance of the community.

Sweat was all over her face. Kathy's back was also wet.

I felt heartbroken because I had already figured out that the person downstairs just now was Angela.

The power in the house needed to be turned on to open the safe. But it was a power outage when I left. How could only our house have a power outage while the lights were on in other houses along the way?

Our community had very good security, and there was no thief.

Moreover, only Angela and I knew the password for the safe.

It could only be Angela who entered the safe, heard me fall, and then escaped and drove away the only car left in the house.
