Stella couldn’t understand. Stiffly, she walked up to Karen, asking her, “Aunt, what are you laughing about?”

Karen didn’t hide her smile at all. Instead, she raised her hand and gently touched Stella’s hair, saying, “I’m laughing because my little Stella has finally escaped this demon.”

She seemed to pity Stella very much. With gentle movements, she stroked Stella’s cheek and said, “You’ve been through hell because of Erin all these years, and I really feel sorry for you. So when he died, even though it pained me too, I still felt happy for you. After all, your escape from nightmares matters more….”

Karen was very kind to Stella, giving her money and love without reservation. Right after Stella joined the Simpson family, Karen transferred all the money that Thomas had given her to Stella’s account and even gave her several houses.

Karen treated Erin well too, in Stella’s eyes. She always cared for him and protected him, even when Erin treated her with harsh words and violence. Karen had no complaints and even showed love for Erin.
