She had gained notoriety within the realm of piano enthusiasts and no honorable man was willing to marry her.

She was barely scraping by.

Aline harbored jealousy towards Rena. She was envious of her exceptional business acumen and her connection to the Evans family

Many women vied for the attention of Mark, the head of the prestigious

Evans family.

However, Mark seemed to reserve his affection and indulgence solely for

Rena!

Aline's lips twitched with anger as she retorted, "You won't enjoy smooth sailing and luck forever!"

Rena chose not to engage in an argument. Instead, she inquired, “Where is your child?"

Aline responded with a terrifying expression, "He's been sent to the nursery!"

Nursery...

Rena understood the implications. It meant that the child would grow up as an orphan!

Aline displayed such cruelty

Though her heart quivered, Aline pretended indifference. She adjusted her makeup in front of the mirror, but it refused to adhere properly to her face. It appeared on the verge of sliding off, and she applied more reluctantly.

Finally, Aline clenched her teeth and declared, “That's his fate! His sin is not being Joseph's child!"

Rena was at a loss for words.

In that moment, a man with yellowed teeth and ostentatious gold chains emerged from the men's room. The instant he spotted Aline, he embraced her, teasing, “How many times have you excused yourself during our meal? Are you experiencing bladder issues?"

Aline casually exchanged some vulgar banter with him.

However, as she departed, her visage bore a look of utter despair.

Only Aline herself knew whether she led a fulfilling Life or not.

Rena Let out a sigh.

She desired to confide in Vera about Aline, but the mere thought of the man's yellowed teeth made her feel nauseous. She clutched the washbasin, retching for an extended period before finally mustering the strength to Look up, her discomfort evident.
