Chapter 926: Chapter 900 Why Can’t I Feel You (Thanks to Kareliu for the Silver Reward +55 More) Chapter 926: Chapter 900 Why Can’t I Feel You (Thanks to Kareliu for the Silver Reward +55 More) “I just can’t accept it,” she said, “if the guarantor had given us time to turn things around and allowed us to apply for a loan extension, then our new product could have hit the market in time, and there would still be a glimmer of hope. We were just one step away, just one step… I don’t even know where your dad is now. Although the workers are saying he fled because he’s guilty, I know your dad–he wouldn’t run. I’m just worried…”

Mrs. Stone wiped her tears, fearing that her spouse might do something desperate in his despair, leaving her and her daughter to fend for themselves. What would they do then?

She had hoped to raise her daughter in an ivory tower so she would never have to worry, but ultimately her reputation was not preserved. Ever since giving birth to Yuki Stone, her body was spent and she couldn’t have more children. She and her husband never intended for their daughter to take over the family business; they had hoped to work hard until Mr. Stone’s retirement, allowing their daughter to be a passive shareholder and enjoy a lifetime of security. Mr. Stone thought he could work another twenty years, but all the careful planning couldn’t withstand a single twist of fate.

Tony Stone looked at her mother, who seemed to have gone prematurely grey over the matter. She could no longer continue to be a carefree princess in such circumstances.

“Mom! Don’t we still have an uncle in the Imperial Capital? I’ll go find him, I’ll ask him to be our guarantor!” she declared. No matter what it took, she was not going to watch her family’s downfall.

“It’s no use… Don’t you understand? So-called friends always come with a price, it’s just a matter of how much. Your dad made so many friends in his life, but who has stepped forward to help us?”

Mrs. Stone said wearily.

She and her husband had numerous friends throughout their lives, yet not one was willing to help when it really mattered. There were even a few who wanted to kick them while they were down and grab a share of the spoils when the Stone Family fell.

“It won’t be like that. Mom! Wait for me! I’ll find a way!”

Tony ran out. Mrs. Stone tried to stop her, but Yuki Stone turned around and said,

“Mom, wait for me! I’ll definitely come back!”

Mrs. Stone thought for a moment, then let her powerless hand drop, allowing the tears to fall from the corners of her eyes.

Perhaps it’s for the best. The word is already out that her spouse has fled; tomorrow, workers might come knocking on the door. It’s better that her daughter is away.

“Go ahead, when you see the coldness of human relationships and experience the harshness of society, you’ll have grown up. In the future, your mom and dad can’t always be there to protect you. Things are bad at home, and you should understand these realities… The outside world is not like school.”

Mrs. Stone’s heart ached as she talked to the air, feeling genuinely cornered now.

Every parent knows the pain of their own child’s suffering. But when the nest is overturned, not one egg remains unbroken. She had been able to protect Kiara before, but now the parents couldn’t even manage their own affairs. All they could hope was that their child would soon see reality clearly.

At that moment, Tony had only one thought, and her attitude was very resolute.

Before, it was her family that protected her; now, it was her turn to protect the family.

Kiara had been messing about with Mario Yuno last night, and by the time she woke up, it was already noon. Yawning, she turned on her phone to find a barrage of missed calls.

Huh…?

Why would Yuki Stone call her so many times?

Kiara knew that Yuki Stone was busy preparing for her wedding in her hometown recently; she and Isaac were planning to go there once vacation started. After attending Tony’s wedding, it would be Kiara’s and Isaac’s turn.

The three sisters were planning to get married one after the other. Kiara had been busy and hadn’t called Tony lately. Why on earth would that girl call her so many times late at night?

Kiara called back, only to find that the phone had been disconnected due to unpaid bills.

What is Tony doing, racking up unpaid bills?

Kiara thought it must be her carelessness, so she planned to go downstairs later to pay Tony’s phone bill and see what was up with the kid.

Seeing that the laptop was still plugged in and not switched off, Kiara went to shut it down, but then she noticed that there was a message from Tony last night?

The first message was fine, just asking if she was there.

The second said she was feeling down and wanted to chat.

The third was just a crying emoji.

Kiara pondered for a moment, no longer hesitated, grabbed her bag, and headed downstairs to pay Tony Stone’s phone bill.

It was pouring rain and blowing hard today. Kiara’s umbrella was bent out of shape by the wind, so she dashed into the rain, letting herself get soaked. Outside the Courtyard, there was a vendor who sold cell phone recharge cards. Kiara jogged all the way there.

“Boss, get me a recharge card!”

“Sorry, they’re all sold out. Why don’t you just go to the Service Hall to buy one? I’ll restock tonight.”

Kiara had no choice but to run back to her car and drive off in her wet clothes.

After she got in the car, she took her cell phone out of her pocket and saw that the case was all wet, so she quickly wiped it dry with a cloth.

Kiara cursed softly, removed the phone battery, hoping it could still work when she powered it on later.

Just as her little red car pulled out, Tony Stone’s Beetle stopped at the entrance of the neighborhood, and a similarly drenched Tony Stone got out of the car, the Gatekeeper approached to ask.

“Who are you looking for?”

“I’m looking for Emma Clark. I’m her friend.”

“You wait, I’ll make a call.” The Gatekeeper went in to call, and no one answered the home phone at Kiara’s house. Tony Stone took out his phone to call Kiara but found out it had run out of credit at some point.

The Gatekeeper took Tony Stone’s phone and used the landline to dial Kiara’s number, but it was out of service.

“How about you wait here for a while?” The Gatekeeper, seeing Tony Stone completely drenched and not knowing how long he had been in the rain, looking distressed as well, felt a pity that always arose for a young woman in such a state.

Yuki Stone shook his head, walked out of the Gatekeeper’s booth, and stood in the torrential rain without getting back into the car, letting the heavy downpour wash over her world.

She had driven over since last night, struggled all the way, spent the morning in the Imperial Capital hitting dead ends, and instead of going home, she drove here to see Kiara.

It wasn’t that she needed Kiara to provide financial help; it was just a habit formed over time. Whenever she encountered insurmountable obstacles, she used to see Mrs. Kiara. Even just a glimpse of her could provide a sense of solace for her helplessness.

But Mrs. Kiara, oh Mrs. Kiara, why are you not here when I need help the most…

Despairing rain, heartless people, shattered expectations, a hopeless heart.

Haven’t slept all night, Yuki Stone stood in the rain, staring at the firmly shut gates of the neighborhood, once thinking she was wealthy, not in terms of money but friends.

But when she had an accident, not a single friend was by her side.

Exhaustion and hunger finally made her knees give way, and she collapsed in the rain.

Seeing this, the Gatekeeper quickly called 911 and moved her into the gatehouse. The ambulance was there shortly, the Gatekeeper helped to load her in, and parked Tony Stone’s car that was left at the gate at a spot off the road where it wouldn’t be in the way.

Kiara ran a long distance before finding a Service Hall. She paid Tony Stone’s phone bill and saw that the water stains on the phone had dried, not looking like it had water inside. Kiara inserted the battery, and the phone powered up.

She immediately called Tony Stone. The phone rang, but no one answered.

What on earth could have happened to this child?

Kiara then called Isaac.

“Isaac, have you been in contact with Yuki these past two days?”

“No… I’ve been looking for her too. She left a message for me on QQ last night, and Second Brother forgot to tell me. He suddenly remembered at lunch today, and when I tried calling her, no one answered.”

Based on just a few missed calls and messages, there shouldn’t be too much concern, but Kiara, knowing Yuki’s nature for many years and seeing that Yuki had become much more stable since coming back from the Mountain Gully, always seemed cheerful on the surface but was very pragmatic on the inside, and wouldn’t play such a cruel joke on her.

With this in mind, there must be a problem.
