At that time, Sean could not help but sneer in an extremely contemptuous manner. "I had never expected it. You usually seemed so honest, but you unexpectedly also used this trick on me as well. Do you think you can trap me like this?"The secretary immediately burst into tears on the spot. "I-I had never thought of trapping you!""Then what are you doing here?""I…I truly am pregnant," said the secretary in tears."Are you a child? You're a grown-up! If you're pregnant, you can get rid of it yourself! Instead, you came to me crying and whining. Do you think I've not seen my share of women, so I would be frightened by you at once, or what?" The man calmly sat in his executive chair. He took out a cigar from the cigar box and started smoking it calmly.The secretary was speechless.It was after he had taken a puff of his cigar that he said with utter disgust, "Go, get out of here. Go wherever you should go!"The secretary turned around and ran off.Sean instantly sneered. It was

The old man wiped his tears away. "Well, that was a child with a miserable life. She had lost her parents at a very young age and had been living with her grandmother since childhood. It was truly a feat for her grandmother to raise her by herself. During the freezing winters, her grandmother would carry her in a basket and pick up rotten potatoes that were thrown away by a warehouse near the train station. Both of them would then eat the potatoes all winter long. In the spring, when the potatoes were gone, Elsa's grandmother would then bring her to pick up scraps and leftover vegetables at the market. That was how she had raised Elsa.Elsa was a sensible child, and her grades were good. She even got a scholarship when she was in high school. She had been paid her own way through college by working while studying as well. That child had truly been through a lot of hardships. She would even send money to her grandmother from time to time. She finally managed to get a job in the city wi

In that instant, Vireo shed tears for no reason.It was not too accurate to be calling the woman in front of him an old lady because she did not look that old. It was just that her calm face had a tinge of unconcealable gloomy expression, which gave the old lady in front of her an indescribable sense of beauty. She was wearing a veil. She was also dressed incomparably plainly, and the hems of her habit were even a little torn. However, that simplicity still was not able to cover up her beauty. Her beauty was pure and untainted. Her beauty had a sense of drastic hardships, and it made people feel endless heartaches. Her face was pale and thin, but pure kindness was showing in her eyes.Vireo cried for a long time and was not able to speak. The old lady in front of him also had tears streaming down her face, but her face was very calm. "Mister…"She called him mister as soon as she opened her mouth. Vireo was stunned."Mister, seeing that you're already an adult now, my sense of guil

Sean's face turned red. "Elsa, I truly did look for you.""Mister." Elsa's voice returned to its calm state. "There truly is nothing between you and me anymore. Please don't come and disturb my life again. This is my last place where I can keep my peace. If I were to lose this peaceful place as well, then I no longer have any means to live in this world anymore. Of course, I have sinned greatly, so I shouldn't have been alive in the first place. Alright. Mister, suit yourself."Upon saying that, Elsa smiled and sighed lightly, then she turned around and left. She did not even take another look at her own son. Without saying another word, she was going to enter the convent."Mom!" Vireo called out behind her.Elsa did not look back. "I am not your mother. I merely gave birth to you. I never raised you after giving birth to you. I am a sinner. As for your mother, she should be your adoptive father and mother who had raised you. I, on the other hand, am not. Mister, please don't call

Elsa suddenly turned to her face, which was initially calm, toward Sean. "Mister Ford! I had already processed the hatred on my own for more than thirty years! Please don't make me hate you again! Because you don't deserve it!""I…" Sean said."Mom, what the hell...happened back then?" Vireo had just met his father, and he had also just met his mother. However, he chose to believe his mother.Elsa smiled miserably. "I was only twenty years old back then!"Sean nodded. "Yes, you were like a budding flower back then.""Did I ever actively seduce you?" Elsa asked rhetorically."You…I know that you liked me," said Sean embarrassedly."I liked you! Is it wrong for me to like you? I was a twenty-year-old girl. You were ten years older than me. In order to obtain me, you sent someone to my hometown and deliberately frightened my grandmother to the point of her getting ill. Originally, my grandmother was able to support herself by farming and picking up scraps in my downtown. She was al
