Chapter 192 I Needed Someone to Talk To

"Dwayne, although I know this sounds terrible, there are times when I really envied you—envied that you had no parents. My parents were incredibly strict with me from a young age and insisted I grow up according to their plans. I still remember when I was in college, my parents thought I was still in high school. Isn't that laughable? Perhaps in the eyes of others, I'm a woman born with a silver spoon, destined to live a life of ease, someone others envy. But I envied those whose parents stayed by their side and remembered their birthdays. "In my parents' eyes, only money and reputation matter. To achieve their goals, they used me as a tool. Even when I did well, they were never satisfied, never praised me; to them, it was all taken for granted." Evelyn's voice grew increasingly emotional. Though she spoke softly, her feelings seemed on the brink of collapse.
