Still Wanna Escape After Stealing My Heart? novel Chapter 2567

"Also, he would be criticizing me in front of the whole company. Ever since then, if I say that my position in the company can’t even be compared to a dog, would you believe me, Kingston? However, what can I say? Firstly, I did use a fake diploma to get a job that was not supposed to be mine. In terms of my own vanity, I truly did not want to give up because this job at the company would allow me to lift my head up high in front of my mother and her family. Didn't they think that I was a despicable and good-for-nothing person? Didn't they think that a middle school graduate like me was incompetent and would not have a better job than their children, who were college graduates? Look at me. I am now working an office job in a company in the big city. How dignified!" Kingston was speechless. When Eevonne was experiencing that all in the past, he was not involved. He thought that if he was involved at that time, he might be influenced by her boss. On top of that, the girl truly was vain, so Kingston might not like her.

However, at that moment, the matter was already in the past, so when Kingston listened to Eevonne telling him about the matter, he felt that she was an honest person. At the very least, she was facing the childish matter that she had done in the past. At that moment, she was probably more honest than she once was in the past.

Also, Kingston had been through so many things and all the ups and downs in life during that period, so he understood the difficulties of everyone. His uncle and aunt's past, included, also made him understand that nobody living in this world has had it easy.

As long as she did not harm others and did not do any heinous things, it was fine if she was a little vain or had a little something to hide. In fact, the majority of people had their own difficulties that were hard for them to speak of.

Take Eevonne, for example. He believed that she was not a vain child who was both conceited and inferior when she was born. However, the environment she had lived in and her family had made these ideas ingrained in her. The main thing was that her mother disapproved of her and did not protect her, so she caused her relatives to form a prejudice against her.

All of that led her to become vain at her core. In fact, she only wanted to be approved of and wanted to hold her head up high in front of her relatives and the people she cared about.

Kingston felt incredibly sorry for this girl. On top of that, Eevonne was his benefactor who had saved his life. She did not hesitate at all when she saved him, and she was very brave and selfless.

That made Kingston understand that even if a girl had plenty of flaws and was disliked by many, she would still have an adorable side and a respectable side to her.

"Kingston, do you know what vain and how arrogant I was back then? On one hand, I enjoyed being seen in a new light by my mother and her family. When I return to my hometown, I would dress very fashionably and very city-like. I would show off and hold my head up high in front of my cousins. On the other hand, I was very shameful and cowardly at my

company.

Kingston was speechless.

"Kingston, in fact, you never would have imagined how much self-respect I have lost and how inferior I felt after working in that company for three years. I even felt that my sense of inferiority had gotten out of hand during that time. Do you know? In order to be seen as equals to my colleagues in the company, to not let them look down on me and underestimate me, I exhausted all the ways to dress myself up. I did my best to make my appearance more like them. I spent all of my salaries every month. The money that I sent home to my mother was money that I had gone out of the way to borrow. Do you know how it feels to borrow money from people who already looked down on me? Kingston, you must feel that I was the one who brought it all on myself. I was the one who was so vain that I spent all of my money and then borrowed more."

Speaking of that, Eevonne's voice was already hoarse. Kingston could tell that she must be in great pain when she recounted that part of her life.

At that moment, he felt even more sorry for her.

"Eevonne, you're a good girl. Among all the girls I have met, you're a brave girl that is hard to come by," he then said sincerely.
