Chapter 136 Wanted To Brainwash
Annalise asked, “Did he cheat on her?” “Sigh.” Kent sighed again. “He didn’t just cheat. He saw that your mother was beautiful and was simply fooling around with her. Do you think those rich people have any sincerity? After playing enough and getting tired, they will still marry a well-born daughter of a compatible family.
“Your mother said that when he was pursuing her, he created all kinds of sweet surprises. He could have asked other people to do many things for him, yet he chose to do them personally. He knew which shop’s dessert your mother liked to eat, so he drove more than ten kilometers to buy it himself.
“Which woman wouldn’t be moved by such a charm offensive?
“After your mother got together with him, she thought she had found her true love and entrusted her entire heart to him. In the end, what did he do? “He turned around and married the well-born daughter of another family. Your mother said that if she weren’t pregnant with you, she really wouldn’t have the courage to live.” Though she knew Uncle Kent might be making it up, Annalise still felt uncomfortable.
Kent saw that Annalise’s emotions were fluctuating wildly, and he knew that he was about to succeed. He let out another long sigh and said, “Sigh! It’s our fault that the Barton family didn’t have money back then. If the Barton family was also a wealthy family back then, he might not have married another family’s daughter. “Anna, girls should learn to protect themselves. As the ancients said, you should only express 30% of your thoughts whenever you meet someone and never reveal everything in your heart completely. You can’t judge a book by its cover!
“No matter how well a man treats you, you have to be on guard. It’s the same for Julian. You have to be on guard. I’m also a man. Men know men the best. I can tell you that no man is good.
“Men are born scumbags. Even as they eat from their own plates, they are eyeing the big pot, thinking of gobbling more, grabbing more. In particular, when it comes to women, they have an innate desire to conquer. After a man conquers a woman, it is a huge mistake for the woman to think that he will be loyal to her. After conquering her, he will lose interest after playing for a while and want to conquer another woman.
“Men treat their careers and women as the two great battlegrounds of their lives. Expanding their careers gives them a sense of accomplishment. Conquering women also gives them a sense of accomplishment. “Anna, don’t think that Julian is treating you well now. This kind of tenderness won’t last long. You have to plan for yourself…” Annalise interrupted him. “Don’t worry about Julian and me, Uncle Kent. There are many emotions in this world that you can’t understand.”
How could a profit-driven, self-seeking person like him truly understand feelings? How did her mentor, Joseph Quigley, become the leading medical expert? The Quigley family was indeed a long-established family specializing in traditional medicine.
However, Joseph Quigley did not study medicine at the beginning. He hated the field of medicine very much. His two older brothers inherited the ancestral teachings and learned medicine, while he became a teacher instead.
He was obsessed with literature, so he studied literature and translated foreign classics on the side, all the while working as a teacher at a high school. Later, his wife fell ill and suddenly became bedridden.
