“Really? Why?” Chelsea asked with great curiosity. Why wouldn’t Leo live in an apartment in such a great locale and environment?

Chelsea laughed. “He is so interesting. It sure sounds like you two have a great relationship with your mother.” Fay Lowered her eyes and replied in a slightly gloomy tone, “Well, Leo has a great relationship with her.”
Seeing the confused expression on Chelsea’s face, Fay continued, “My mother has always preferred Leo over me. She used to say every day that she and our father would leave everything to Leo. The funny thing is, they really have nothing to leave him. The only money they have comes from me.”
Chelsea was a little stunned. She couldn’t believe that Fay’s parents were taking her money just to leave it all to Leo.

“Well, can’t you ask Leo to talk to your mother about this?” Chelsea couldn't believe her ears. Fay smiled with self-mockery.
“He’s tried. Many times, in fact. He’s told her on many occasions that she shouldn't play favorites, but she doesn’t listen at all. Leo said that he would giveback everything that belonged to me. | didn’t have the heart to tell him that | didn’t care about the money. All | wanted was our mother’s love and affection.”
“Oh, Fay. I’m so sorry to hear that. But I’m sure everything will be fine,” Chelsea said, gently patting Fay on the shoulder and comforting her in a low voice.
“Yes, I’m sure of that, too. | have Mr. Nelson to thank, actually. If we hadn’t been rescued by the Nelson Group’s charity foundation, | would have been forced to drop my studies and work to make money so that Leo could go to school.”
The story of Fay’s life made Chelsea take pity on her. It was said that every family had its own difficulties. Nothing could ever be truer.
