“But then, Mrs. Miller Senior got pregnant with his child with underhanded methods. She thought thatMr. Miller Senior would change his mind, but he only hated her even more.
“Thus, he chose to take care of the woman he loved, who was also pregnant then.”
When Olivia heard about the events, she felt her chest tightening. She felt as if someone was pryingopen an unseen spot with a needle.
“What happened after that?”
“Mrs. Miller Senior had hated that woman from the start. She was shunned by her husband, and shehad some hormonal changes during pregnancy. So, Mrs. Miller Senior’s mental illness worsened.
“She had depression, but she held on for the sake of her child. On the day she gave birth, she and theother woman had early childbirth at the same time.
“And Mr. Miller Senior didn’t even hesitate as he chose the other woman.”
With a loud crash, the bowl of soup in Olivia’s hands fell to the floor. It shattered into pieces, and thesoup splashed everywhere.
“Goodness, Mrs. Miller. What came over you? Did you get burned?” Madam Burgess hastily took sometissues. She wiped the soup that had spilled onto Olivia’s feet.
Olivia was bewildered for a moment. She felt as if there was once a wound in her heart, and now,someone was opening it by force. The wound hadn’t healed yet, but it was now exposed.
The old wound had yet to heal, and blood began to drip from it.
Olivia lowered her head to look at her feet as if that was her wound.
She had no idea what was going on with her.

incident became Mrs. Miller Senior’s biggest trauma.
“After giving birth, she seemed to have turned into another person altogether. Mrs. Miller, you’re awoman too, so you should know how terrifying postpartum depression can be.

would’ve been done for.”
Olivia said, “But he’s her biological son.”
“Indeed. Mrs. Miller Senior was already deep in postpartum depression back then. So, Madam Eugeniacould only separate her from Mr. Miller.
