sm was still the same, everything was a

My room was
At the dinner table, my stepmother Emina lept putting, food into my bowl, all of which were my favorite
She looked at me and said with concern, “Look at how thin you are, your lips are even pale. Your must not be eating well or sleeping well in the countryside.”
I used to always think that she was deliberately trying to please and be clever.
Now it seems that perhaps she was just beling kind–hearted.
I smiled at her and whispered, “Emma, thank you” –
This was the first time I smiled at her, and she seemed a little surprised. Her fork parsed in her hand.
Dad burrowed his brow and cautiously asked me, “Celine, did Lucas bully you? Why did you come back alone?”
I simply mentioned the divorce with Lucas.
Leaving out the most painful details, even so, it was enough to make my father’s eyes well up with tears.
Emma wiped away her tears and choked, saying, “How could they treat someone like this! Our daughter is not unable to get married, yet they insist on marrying her to him!”
Dad suddenly slammed fork and shouted, “Dad won’t let him gol Dare to bully my daughter, it’s really outrageous!”
I silently ate my meal, wanting to say a few comforting words to them.
My throat choked up, and tears kept flowing down uncontrollably
How could I possibly swallow this?
In the past life, I painfully died while living in that cold and dirty cowshed.
I heard the helpless cry of the child, but I didn’t have the strength to give birth to him…
That heart–wrenching despair, until now, still sends shivers down my spine.
Fortunately, I had my wits about me and didn’t listen to Lucas giving away the college spot directly.
Just took a leave of absence
When I completed the enrollment procedures and stepped into the campus.
Looking at those lively students, I suddenly realized that I was only 20 years old, in the prime of my youth.
However, I didn’t have much time to adapt to college life.
Just at the school gate, I sașe Lucas agalis
“Celine, listen to me, I was just explaining that Chelsea and I were only pretending to be married.”
“My heart has always been with you, can you please ask your dad not to suppress me anymore?”
It seems like Dad took action, otherwise he wouldn’t be so anxious.
“Lucas, do you really think I am a three–year–old child?”
He took a step forward, wanting to hold my hand, but I avoided him with disgust.
“Celine, listen to me, Chelsea had a special situation, I couldn’t just ignore her.‘
“There is nothing for me to talk to yo
to you about.”
I responded coldly and deliberately looked down as my wristwatch, “Don’t bother me, I’m going to be late for class.”
His eyebrows furrowed tightly, his tone tinged with a hint of disbelief, “You’re still going to college? How old are you already? Stop going, this woman, why does she need to read so many books? And you’re even pregnant!”
I took a step back and looked at his foolish appearance, feeling even in
mure di
disappointed in this man.
He still hasn’t noticed my belly that has already flattened, it’s really ridiculous.
“The child was gone long ago, and we have also divorced. Whatever I do has nothing to do with you.”
He then lowered his head and looked at my belly, staring at it in disbelief. “You… you aborted the baby? Why?”
I had already been too lazy to argue with him.
Why should I be angry, feel sorry for, or even feel wronged by him?
“The day you took Chelsea to the hospital, my baby in my belly had already been miscarried by your push long ago. And now you’re saying you don’t
know?”
His pupils suddenly contracted, and he opened his mouth as if to defend himself, saying, “Impossible, impossible! I didn’t use much force, are you trying
to deceive me?”
I looked at him and suddenly felt extremely exhausted.
This man, who likes to shirk responsibility, really has no sense of responsibility at all. He is so cowardly that it disgusts people.
Chapter 7
I didn’t want to waste any more time with him, so I bypassed him and continued rushing towards the classroom.
However, he did not give up and grabbed my arm again.
I know you were angry with ine, and I was a bit wrong, but you shouldn’t have let your father suppress me?–
I stopped in my tracks, looked up at him, and coldly said, “I didn’t know what my dad did “
“You should have asked my dad instead of me, now I have to go to class, don’t bother me.”
I forcefully shook off his hand and walked quickly towards the teaching building.
He saw my unusual indifference and didn’t dare to stop me anymore, afraid of provoking even greater resentment from me.
However, he did not give up, but instead he went to my house with the gift to see my father.
After class, when I got home, I saw him and his gifts being thrown out of the door by
