After all, it was her fault. Tina apologized again. "Mrs. Koo, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to!"
There were three noblewomen standing inside the elevator. They were so concentrated on their conversation that they didn't notice that the elevator had arrived a long time ago. So they walked out of the elevator slower than the others. Coincidentally, they ran into Tina, who was in a hurry to enter the elevator.
The lady she ran into was none other than Mrs. Koo, Lilith Yuen.
Lilith was dressed up as usual, looking very elegant and graceful, but her face was too mean. "A word of apology is enough? Do you know that my dress is the latest limited edition? It was just bought last month during the Fashion Week in Country F. If it is dirty, can you, an orphan, afford it?"
Tina raised her head and said in a neither humble nor pushy tone, "I were careless so that I ran into you. I've apologized. The soup hasn't been spilled. I didn't dirty your dress!" Another lady next asked, "Lilith, her face seems familiar. Is she your adopted daughter?" "Yes, it's her!" Lilith looked disdainful. "Back then, the Koo Family adopted her out of kindness and offered food and accommodation to her. Unexpectedly, she was a little b*tch. She seduced my son secretly and made him crazy. Moreover, she secretly had sex with other men outside and got pregnant five years ago. She was so shameless. The Koo family had already driven her out!"
Other noble ladies and Lilith shared the bitter hatred of the enemy and looked at Tina with mocking eyes.
Those eyes were all visible. No matter how strong Tina's heart was, she still felt it unbearable. She asked in a deep voice, "Have you finished your words?"
Lilith smiled contemptuously. "Aren't you the one who did these shameful things?"
Tina's eyes gleamed with a sharp glint. "Mrs. Koo," she said in a cold voice, "Could you get away with what happened five years ago?"
Lilith's expression was a little embarrassed, her eyes flickering.
She snorted and tidied her dress, showing a disdainful look. "Tina, I'll tell you, Dylan already has a girlfriend in L City. They will get engaged soon. Don't entangle with my son anymore. Give up this for the rest of your life!"
After that, Lilith twisted her waist and left with the other ladies.
The elevator door slowly closed.
Tina stood stiffly in place.
She looked at the changing red number, and her heart seemed to be tied by a rope.
It had been five years. The handsome young man no longer belonged to her. When she lost herself five years ago, she had completely lost him.
When she knew that he was about to get engaged, she didn't even have the right to be sad.
When the elevator door opened again, Malee, who had not seen Tina come for a long time, was waiting outside anxiously.
Seeing her face, she asked with concern, "Tina, are you okay?"
Tina nodded her head. "I'm fine!"
Tina looked at the pediatric ward ahead and regained her spirits at the thought of her lively and lovely daughter.
After the meal, Malee had something to do and left. There were only Tina and Isla in the room.
It was dark, and stars filled the sky.
On the hospital bed, Isla rubbed her eyes with her white and tender hands. Tina put down the storybook and said softly, "Baby, are you sleepy? Go to sleep!"
She took a look at her watch.
Isla asked in a childish voice, "Mom, are you going to work overtime again after I fell asleep?"
The so-called work really embarrassed Tina. She nodded guiltily and said, "Yes..."
As long as she had a secret relationship with Wilson, she had to see him every weekend night.
All the children in a single-parent family had a delicate sensitive heart.
Isla had been very sensible and considerate since she was a child. At this moment, she looked at Tina with her big eyes and said in a childish voice, "It's all my fault. If I were in good health, you wouldn't have been so tired. I'm sorry, mom. Isla is a burden!"
Tina felt sad in her heart.
