Ms. Girard entered the room. Her parents-inw had already gotten up from the sofa, and her mother-
inw came to greet her.
There was a kind smile on her face. “Ainsley is back.”
Ms. Girard’s full name is Ainsley Girard.
“Mom, I’m back.”
No matter how tired Ainsley was, when she returned home and saw her parents-inw and her son,
she felt at ease. As long as everyone was healthy, she felt it was worth it, no matter how tired she was.
Mrs. Girard said, “Are you hungry? I made some soup for you and left you with a bowl. It’s still hot. I will
bring it out for you to drink.
Thepany has been very busytely. Every night when youe back and see me, you are tired
and have lost a lot of weight. I felt distressed when I saw you. It was your short life that made you so
tired.”
Mrs. Girard’s eyes turned red again when she mentioned her short-lived only son. Even if her son had
been dead for seven years, she would feel ufortable whenever she mentioned it.
Ainsley became a mother, and she was also an only child. Normally, her son would have a cold or a
fever, and she, as a mother, would be anxious and ufortable, wishing she could get sick for her
son.
She couldn’t even imagine that she would go crazy if she lost her only son just after entering old age.
Therefore, she can understand how her parents-inw feel.
“Well, then I’ll have a bowl of soup.”Content held by N?velDrama.Org.
Ainsley wasn’t hungry. She had just returned from socializing, but she didn’t want to betray her mother-
inw’s kindness. It was just a bowl of soup, but she could still drink it.
Ainsley greeted her father-inw again and handed the bag to the servant, who helped her put it away.
The son sat on herp, and Ainsley naturally hugged him.
Ainsley said, “Dad, Mom, you don’t have to wait for me from now on. Go to bed early. Son, you too, go
to bed early. You don’t have to wait for mom.”
The son said, “I have to wait until my motheres back before I sleep. My mother is not at home
during the day. If I don’t wait for my mother toe back, I won’t be able to see her.”
The son didn’t follow the rules.
Ainsley said sadly, “It’s me who is sorry for you.” “I’m busy with things in thepany and don’t have
time to apany you.”
As long as she had someone to rely on, she wouldn’t have to be so tired. Only she knew how bitter it
was for a widow to raise a son and then support her husband’s family.
Despite all the sadness, Ainsley was particrly envious of Liberty.
Liberty had a younger sister, Serenity. The two sisters had been dependent on each other for many
years and had a very deep rtionship.
Even if Serenity doesn’t marry into a wealthy family, she can be Liberty’s support. If her husband’s
family bullies Liberty, Serenity can express her anger on her sister’s behalf.
After marrying into a wealthy family and receiving the support of the York family, Serenity was not only
kind to her sister and nephew, not to mention herself.
For Liberty, even if the sky falls, serenity will help hold her up.
As for her, Ainsley, her parents were alive, as were her brothers and sisters. They were thinking about
how to divide her husband’s family’s property, but she insisted on guarding it to the death. Her mother-
inw’s family scolded her for her stupidity, pointing out that her husband’s family had no blood
rtionship with her.
Why was she guarding so closely?
It p!ssed her off half to death.
No matter how miserable and tired she was, she would not go back to her parents’ home for help.
Those were vamp!res. If they became entangled, they would sweep the country her husband’s family
had conquered for generations clean.
What would her son inherit, then?
It was true that her mother’s family were her rtives, but her old age would be ced on her son, who
was closer to her. Her son inherited everything from her husband’s family, including everything she
earned.
No matter how much she owed to her parents, her parents always gave it to her brother and sister-in-
law.
