Chapter 241 Difficult Times

In the past, what Christina most desired was to see her brother at home. She eagerly awaited the holidays

when she could reunite with him during school breaks

Later, when he married Natalie, she still hoped he would come back often.

“Miss, how can you not eat? You’ll collapse if you continue like this.”
