Chương 68: Soft heart

Upon reaching their usual garden, Aurora discovered that Theresa was absent and decided to wait for her. She couldn't help but wonder if her in-laws' presence had caused Theresa's absence, as it seemed like Theresa was expected to cater to the guests as the mistress of the house.

Furthermore, Aurora wondered if Theresa felt hurt knowing that Damien didn't want to marry. Would Theresa be okay with her grandchild being born to a slave? Or was she just pretending to be fine for Damien's sake?

"I am sorry darling," apologizing for being late, Theresa rushed into the garden, her face glistening with sweat.

"It's alright," Aurora assured Theresa that she wasn't bothered by the lateness. She could see that taking care of guests wasn't an easy task.

"Who knew my mother-in-law would be so bothersome?" Complained Theresa, wiping off the sweat from her face in frustration.
