Chapter 230: Song of the Betrayed (10)
But it was too late to stop my story.
Look, the expressions of everyone here aren’t exactly pleasant, are they?
Honestly, it’s too harsh a thing for just one person to go through.
But what can be done?
It’s already past, and I’ve spoken about it.
I looked at Morris and Victoria, whose misfortunes were sealed, and then at Beatrice standing on the edge.
And I saw Gain and Rebecca. I hadn’t seen Morris’s parents in a long time, so much so that when he came back home, [N O V E L I G H T] I could hardly recognize them as having aged. At least, I had never seen them as old as Victoria’s age.
The reason is simple.
Morris didn’t want to live in the countryside, so he fought with his parents who wanted him to inherit the family business and left.
Luckily, Morris succeeded, but when you think about his return here, it wouldn’t be surprising to think he came back in failure.
No, since he was someone who was ejected as times changed, it might actually be a failure.
Even from that, it’s clear his parents must have been uncomfortable, and Beatrice is completely a city person.
