Chapter 21 Nancy Fell Into The Swimming Pool

“Yeah, it’s quite urgent,” Nicholas said..

Nancy tightened her grip on her hand, and it seemed there was no need to continue speaking.

Her mom is at nurse, and her dad is a gambler. If it weren’t for her mom saving Grandfather’s life, with her background, she could never match up to the Sallows.”

“Children from small and humble families are just pitiful. They look poor and shabby, not to mention their unimpressive appearance. That’s why Nicholas hasn’t brought her out. He’s afraid of becoming a laughingstock.”
