On the road, Edith was crying while walking, and everyone around was staring at her with curiosity. It seemed that they wanted to know why Edith was crying so sad.
"Isn't that Edith, why is she crying on the road? Is she wronged at home?"
"Isn't her wedding to Casey so romantic some time ago? At that time, didn't everyone think she was the happiest person in the world? Why does she look so pitiful now?"
"That's what she deserves. It's idle boast. Casey is now one of the best people in J City. Maybe Edith didn't behave well at home, and was scolded. She couldn't bear it, and ran outside."
"Tut-tut, although I know it's wrong to say that, I am inexplicably happy to see her like this. I envy her wedding with Casey at crystal castle. Now think about it, I don't have to envy her. She looks decent in public, but suffers in private."
...
Listening to the whispers of people around, Edith's tears flowed more intensely. She didn't want others to see her crying so sad, but she couldn't care about it anymore.
What Amara did has completely wiped out her patience. She had infinite grievances in her heart. She did not understand why she had such a mother. Her life had obviously started to get better, but was ruined by her mother, who always said it was for her good.
This time, she really broke out the emotions. She, who had always believed that children should be more sensible and listened to their parents was so annoyed, it was conceivable that how much damage Amara had done to her.
At this time, on the second floor of a cafe on this road, in front of the French windows, Margaret was sitting here, staring at the road outside. She looked a little lost.
At this moment, she noticed Edith, who was walking in tears, and her dim eyes immediately brightened up.
She looked at Edith's desolate look with interest, and looked very happy.
Before coming to this cafe, she had already received news from Albie and learned that the Patel Group was acquired by Wonhu Company.
She didn't actually think that she would see Edith here. This incident was purely coincidental. She felt that this was deliberately arranged by God to let her see Edith's tragic situation in person. Edith deserved what she encountered.
"Blame yourself for being Casey's wife. He ruined everything about me, and I will never let go of his favorite woman. When he comes back and sees you, he will be furious. And then it will be my happiest time," Margaret murmured.
At this time, there was a trace of viciousness in her eyes, and then she took out her phone and made a call.
"Help me do one thing, if it is done, I will give you three million."
...
Edith walked on the road for a long time, she just wanted to stay away from Amara, so she didn't stop on the road for a moment, and walked as far as near the suburbs.
She felt her legs were tired, but she didn't dare to stop. She was afraid that as soon as she stopped, Amara would catch up, threaten her and said what she did was for her, let her go back, and continue torturing her in this way.
Her tears had drained, her eyes were swollen, her throat became hoarse a lot, and she looked decadent and low.
When passing an intersection, Edith didn't notice the person coming from the other side and ran into it directly.
Edith came back to her senses and quickly apologized to that person.
"What did you do? With so few people here, you run into our young lady. I think you did it on purpose?" A man in a black suit shouted at Edith, then turned to look at the person who was hit, asked with concern, "Miss, are you okay?"
"I'm fine, she didn't mean it, don't embarrass her too much." A clear voice sounded.
Edith looked up at the girl, and was taken aback for a moment. The person stared at her and was also a little surprised, as if she didn't expect to meet Edith here.
The girl who was hit by Edith was Lily who came to the suburbs to relax.
Edith didn't expect to meet Lily here. After being stunned for a moment, she greeted Lily hurriedly, "Miss Lowe, what a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet you here."
Lily smiled politely at Edith and said, "I came here to relax, and I didn't expect to meet you. You are here..."
With that, Lily noticed that Edith was in gloomy. Her eyes were swollen, there were obvious tears on her face, and she looked was very upset. At first glance, Lily could tell that Edith had just cried.
Edith quickly wiped her eyes, adjusted her emotion, smiled awkwardly, and said, "I... I also went for a walk. We are pretty destined as we can meet here."
