"Aunt, you... calm down... don't worry, I won't say anything... just let go, it hurts so much..."
Lily Gray thought Emma Shaw had gone crazy. She had heard tales of twisted affairs among prominent families, but she never expected that she would encounter one so soon.
"Calm down? Fine... I'll calm down. But remember, don't you dare say anything. If you do, I'll make you pay!"
Seeing the fear etched upon Lily Gray's face, Emma Shaw knew her threats had worked, and she triumphantly released her grip.
Emma scoffed, "Just like that other woman, a pretty face but no backbone."
Lily Gray didn't pay attention to her words, as soon as Emma released her, all she wanted was to go where people were - she couldn't bear staying here any longer.
Forcing herself to stand, a sharp pain from her lower abdomen tore through her body.
Lily Gray didn't know why her stomach felt this way; her legs were barely able to support her. She could only lean on the railing for support.
