Chloe's smile started to fade and eventually disappeared completely.
"Actually, it was Carolina who suggested that I should announce the cancellation of the engagement on the spot. My first reaction was that it was quite sad. Her intentions were so obvious, and your worries were not unreasonable."
Chloe sighed, looking at the guests coming out of the Serenade Hotel with a cold expression on her face.
"After all, they were pretty good to me when I was younger. In this world, they were the only people related to me..."
"I remember the old director of the orphanage once said that even if any of the children there found a home, they would always have a place in their hearts for the orphanage, their friends, the director, and the teachers. Because children are the most innocent, their hearts are like a blank sheet of paper, and the first impression is often the most unforgettable..."
"Even after my mother left, I thought about humbly trying to salvage something, but they wouldn't even give me a chance...
"...At that time, I was very conflicted. I hated them for driving my mother to a dead end, but I also selfishly didn't want them to abandon me... I just remember that feeling was too scary, and I wasn't prepared to face everything on my own. Helplessness and fear made me so flustered that I didn't know what to do..."
"I grew up in a privileged environment, and before that, I had never thought that one day I would have to face so many things. Viviana joined the Summers family, my mother was forced to leave, and I couldn't handle Keira's despicable tactics... My mother never taught me any of this, so I guess she wasn't good at it either. If she had known, she wouldn't have ended up like that..."
There was an oppressive feeling in the car, and Chloe took a deep breath.
