My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna) -
Chapter 1306
Sonia's mother looked at the woman with tears in her eyes, "Marie, I don't mean anything else. We just came to retrieve some clothes. Winter is coming. Well just take the clothes. I know that we owe you a few months' rent, it's understandable that you want to keep these things from us, but our clothes are worthless. Just let us take them, since you have no use for them anyway. At least we can survive this winter with them."
The woman snorted, "Just take it. Don't try to make me take pity on you. I have seen many poor people in my life. Everyone is struggling in the mud just to live. If you want your clothes, just take them and get out of here. Don't think about living here if you can't pay the rent. I am still in a hurry to rent it to other people!"
Sonia's mother nodded and began rummaging for their clothes in the small yard. Sonia's father squatted on the ground with tearful eyes, but we didn't know what he was looking at. The lights were too dim and it seemed like he was staring at a photo.
"Mrs. Sanders!" I said, walking into the small yard.
Hearing my voice, Sonia's mother gazed at us. She stared blankly for a while and said, "Mrs. Roberts,
Mr. Roberts, why are you here?"
As I spoke, I crossed my hands together, feeling a little embarrassed. I smiled faintly and replied, "Hendrix and I were worried about you, so we came to have a look."
"I'm sorry that you had to see that!" Sonia's mother was a little awkward.
I knew that no one would be willing to show their vulnerabilities to other people, even if they had no way out.
I said nothing more. I looked at the landlady and asked, "Both of them are getting old. Is there a house on the first floor?"
The woman seemed dazed. She looked at me, "Of course. Do you want to rent it?"
I nodded and said, "Please help both of them put their things back in place. I'll pay for it!"
She looked back and forth between Hendrix and I. Then she immediately put on a smile and nodded, then quickly began to move their things for them.
Sonia's mother looked at me in confusion. "Mrs. Roberts, you have already helped us a lot, this..." "Mrs. Sanders, you can live here in peace. Don't worry about anything else. Just relax for a while, and everything will be fine in the future." I didn't really know how to comfort her other than this.
After the woman carried their things into the house, she looked at us with a smile and spoke," I've done everything I can do for the both of you. Is there anything else I can help with?"
With a faint smile, I took out my wallet from my bag and gave her some money. Then I told her, "This money is enough for them to live for a while. As for the extra money, please use it to take care of them. I'll pay accordingly in the future."
After taking the money, the woman's smile couldn't get any wider. She nodded her head repeatedly while saying pleasant words of relief.
I had given her all the money I had, so I stole a quick glance at Hendrix. He smiled feebly, took out his wallet and handed it to me.
I smiled, opened his wallet and took out all the money inside. I handed it to Sonia's mother and said, "Mrs. Sanders, take this money. We will come to visit you in a few days. Call me if you need anything." Sonia's mother rejected it repeatedly. "I can't accept this money. You were already kind enough to pay our rent for us. We can't take your any more of your money, Mrs. Roberts."
