Chapter 111: The Arrogant Woman

Unexpectedly, just when Vivian Harris seemed to have regained her composure, she choked up again, tears streaming down her face as she smiled at me. It took her a while to speak again, "Thank you... Grace, thank you!" Her vulnerability was heart-wrenching, a stark contrast to the fierce Vivian Harris who had boldly confronted George and Fiona on our anniversary.

"Grace... you feel more like family than my own family!" she said, gripping my hand after she had composed herself. "All these years, no one has truly understood me, felt my pain, cared for me!"

"What do those men want? I know better than anyone. I'm not a saint! I don't value chastity because I need to survive, but even in my lowliness, I have my dignity. I don't want to live like this."

Hearing this, I understood her feelings.
