Chapter 333

She smiled faintly. "There's a leisure area outside of the hotel. Let's go!"

Following her to the back of the hotel, we came to an open-air rest area. She found us a seat, sat down

gracefully, and motioned me to sit down to talk.

I sat down across from her and asked for a cup of warm water from the waiter while she asked for a

cup of coffee, no sugar.

I quietly glanced at her.

She did not seem to be in a hurry to wrap our little chat up. After the coffee was served, she slowly took

a sip and said, "Are you not a fan of coffee?"

I nodded. "It's bitter. I'm not used to it."

She smiled and took another sip. Perhaps it tasted too bitter because a frown formed on her face. "It's

also a blessing that you don't like bitterness." When her eyes fell on me, she smiled again. "To be

honest, you and I are so similar when I was young. If I hadn't checked your DNA in person, I would

have thought you were my daughter."

I smiled faintly, and my smile was a little cold. "To be your daughter, I would need to have blessings

spanning across a few lifetimes. I am not worthy of it!"

The smile on her face faded. She narrowed her eyes and then exhaled deeply. "30 years ago, when I

was just 20 years old, I knew that I was no more than an ordinary girl, and that if I aspired to live a life

that I truly wanted in the future, I would have to work hard and suffer. At 23, I graduated from university

and met Pedro. Being noticed among so many people by this respected man was probably my luckiest

moment in my life. He was noble, elegant, and was such a gentleman - the ideal lover of all women.

We've been fortunate to always appreciate and love one another."

I quietly watched her talk without any intention of interrupting. She asked the waiter for a refill and

continued, "At 24, he and I had been looking forward to our future. I even imagined our life together

after marriage. It was beautiful and worth looking forward to, but reality was cruel. Only a few children

from average families ever get respected. Only children who have been born into noble family

backgrounds, will have an inherent sense of superiority and respect. That's the reason why they can

shine in crowds."

She looked at me thoughtfully. "The gracefulness within is rare because the only way to have it is

through the bloodline."novelbin

I couldn't help but frown as I quietly listened to her.

She leaned back a little as she continued, "Because of the gap in family background, I was looked

down on by the Moore family. As arrogant as I was, I left Pedro out of anger and wanted to be

independent. The year I left Jarold City, I swore to myself that I would work until I'm at a position where

I could have the Moore family at my disposal."

She couldn't help but laugh, "Fate was ridiculous though. Unexpectedly, I found out I was pregnant

when I left Jarold City. But my ego stopped me from going back to Pedro. I was young after all, and it

was my first pregnancy. I couldn't bear to abort the baby, but I wasn't able to raise her either. I hesitated

and procrastinated while my tummy grew bigger and bigger. In the end, I had to give birth to her. I

originally thought that I'd be alright settling down with any man for the rest of my life. However, once I

have experienced the high life of a noble, I couldn't stand living an ordinary life anymore. After giving

birth to the baby, I went abroad alone."

Seeing her face full of vicissitudes, I couldn't help but frowny. This woman sounded like she had been

too ambitious and I didn't know whether this was a good or bad thing.
