Chapter 519
“She was only 14 when she arrived in Stoslo. She couldn’t speak their language and had to live in the slums with her family, not knowing when the next meal would come.
“At that time, people in the slums were not treated as human beings at all by the people of the upper class. They had no human rights and had to be obedient brutes.
“In order to make a living, some of the people in the slums would send their daughters to become servants of the rich and powerful.
“The girl was one of them, and her parents sold her to an old, wealthy merchant who had no children in exchange for money.
“She didn’t have a good life either after her parents sold her to the old wealthy merchant. He would beat her up from time to time, and she did not get enough food to eat or sleep. She was barely living a human life.
“Later, she decided to change her life. She worked hard at learning their language and tried her best to please the old wealthy merchant. She even took the initiative to keep his guests company.
“Using her youth and beautiful face to her full advantage, she was able to please those guests and bring in a lot of wealth to the old wealthy merchant.
“The old wealthy merchant was delighted, and he took her, an insignificant servant, in as his foster daughter. However, she also turned herself into a person she disliked.
“The silver lining was that luck was on her side. When the old wealthy merchant died of illness a few years later, the woman rightfully inherited all his property and turned herself into a socialite of the upper class.
“The woman was 25 years old when she met her dream man. He was a doctor who had returned from studying abroad.
“He was an ambitious, motivated, and aspirant young man. Unfortunately, he failed the postgraduate entrance examination, and in frustration, he met the woman. He was different from those men who tried to win her favor through flattery, and he quickly gained the woman’s heart.
