Fortunately, the Thompsons gave Arnold enough support. Arnold had also made up his mind.


    The Larson family''s n fell apart, and they even received a beating.

    M smiled gently and grasped Arnold''s hand tightly. "Your home is where your heart is."


    Arnold did not speak, as tears streamed down his face silently.


    "Arnold, I''m sorry for those harsh words I said to you earlier... I forced you into a corner. I''m really sorry." M was full of guilt.
