My Dreamy Old Husband

The Edwards Family was the first group of people to attack and humiliate Lucy, and they were also the ones to condemn her in the most cruel way. When people noticed that the family members of the Edwards Family had started condemning Lucy, outsiders started humiliating and insulting her openly too.

Many people knew that Lucy was kneeling at the entrance of the Edwards Residence, so countless filthy comments were hurled at this clearly innocent woman in an attempt to humiliate her soul and personality.

Since the Edwards Family refused to protect her, others started humiliating her even more. It seemed almost as though she had become a pile of mud for others to trudge on. It was clear that she had worked hard for more than a decade for the Edwards Group, and she had had great achievements. One couldn’t even be sure if it was the sorrow of the Edwards Group or Lucy herself that she ended up like this…

Upon noticing Sophia’s upset expression, Stanley commented drunkenly, “I think that no matter who Lucy loves, it’s her business. The Edwards are utterly unkind. If this were to happen within our Fletcher Family, the worst thing that could happen would be a horrible beating, but there’d be no consequences after the beating; in fact, you’d be free to do as you please! Tsk, they’ve made her kneel at the entrance for two nights now—they are simply too cruel. If I were in her shoes, I’d have turned and walked away. I honestly do not understand why she went back there! This is too despicable no matter how rich the Edwards are!”

Nevertheless, they had no idea that the Edwards Family had hurt Lucy far worse than they could ever imagine, but she chose to return to them despite that.

After dinner, Sarah dropped by Sophia’s house. They played poker together, but Sophia was clearly depressed, and she lost tens of thousands. Furthermore, she just couldn’t fall asleep soundly upon returning to her bedroom.

Lucy’s injuries have yet to recover fully. Now that she has been caught in the rain for two whole nights… who knows how Lucy is now.

It was in the wee hours, and the Bayside City was trapped in an exceptionally violent storm. Sophia heard the splatter of the rain against the window while she tossed and turned in bed without being able to fall asleep. She couldn’t bear it any longer, and so she opened the friend list in her Messenger. After that, Sophia spaced out while staring at two profile pictures—one of them was ‘Your Past Royal Family A’, whereas the other was ‘Your Past Royal Family B’.

After weighing her options, she sent a text via Messenger to ‘A’.

‘What happened to Lucy?’

It so happened that the other party was online, and so the reply was swift. ‘Apologies, but the user you are summoning is still sulky because your dad slept with the user’s mom. Hence, the user is temporarily refusing all advisory services unless you transfer 8,888.’

‘Damn it. I can’t believe you’re still angry…”

Sophia mumbled to herself, but she transferred 8,888 anyway.
