Chapter 362 Refusing to Leave and Asking Someone to Leave (Part 2)_1
Unable to bear seeing his goddaughter saddened and distressed, he comforted her affectionately, "No matter whether there’s a relationship or not, Wu’er will always be my dearest goddaughter. You should completely forget those heartbreaking past events and peacefully live well in the days to come."
Mo Erni, with tears brimming in her eyes, threw herself into Manager Song’s embrace and coquettishly said that godfather doted on her the most.
Manager Song was amused into hearty laughter by her, feeling fortunate to have such a wonderful goddaughter. It must be that his own daughter couldn’t bear the thought of him living a lonely life in this world and purposefully sent a goddaughter who looked similar to her and shared her temperament to keep him company.
Mo Erni closed her eyes and savored the "fatherly love" Manager Song gave her, yet her mind was rapidly spinning.
The Xue Family was the wealthiest and most powerful family she had ever seen. She had thought that with some careful maneuvering, she could use the Xue Family’s influence to properly "repay" those who had humiliated her. But the outcome was that a mere Second-Class Steward from the Duke Wu’an’s Mansion could make the Family Head of the Xue Family bow and scrape—what could she, a mere Third-Class Maid, possibly do?
What was even more infuriating was that wretched woman had actually hooked up with the high-and-mighty Young Master Yan and even convinced Young Master Yan to stand up for her. Truly, like mother, like daughter—all despicable creatures.
Now that the Xue Family was of no use, she had to find a way to attach herself to an even more powerful patron to crush that wretch. Only thing was, having entered the service of the Xue Family as a servant, she could never expect to break free from them unless she died.
However, godfather was merely employed by the Xue Family and was not their servant. Initially, she had just wanted to find a support to slowly climb up, but now it was her only chance to rid herself of the Xue Family and latch onto the powerful. She had to grasp it tightly.
