Since Patrick and the others exited the elevator first, Sophia was the last to leave.Her sharp eyes were eventually drawn to the exquisite pink paper bag in John's hand.She could tell it was for a woman even without looking closely.She suddenly realized that today was Adriana''s birthday and bitterly thought, 'Even if Patrick is extremely busy, he will get off work just so he wouldn't miss a chance to celebrate her birthday and would even make time to prepare a present for her: She couldn't help but ponder what he did for her throughout their five years of marriage.

In the end, her mind came up with nothing.

Indeed, she was nothing to him compared to Adriana.

As she walked out, the hall was so brightly lit that she was momentarily blinded.

As soon as he stepped outside, Patrick was immediately surrounded by people.His 185cm height particularly stood out amongst the crowd.

This was his world, so extraordinary and brilliant that no speck of dust could be seen, and it was exclusive to those people he allowed to enter.

Even someone like her, who had been his wife for five years, had never gained access to it.

It was a pity that it was too late when she realized this.

Perhaps, she and Patrick were really not meant to be, and he was only destined for Adriana, who was favored by heaven.

In an ordinary bilingual kindergarten in Frostford City was a serene yet chaotic scene.

While waiting for their parents to pick them up, Emma and her desk mate, Quentin, clasped their hands and stood closer together.

"Emma Hill doesn't have a father because her father doesn't want her..."

Several children approached Emma and started mocking her.

Quentin, on the other hand, was enraged when he heard of this.

"Ignore them, Quentin"

Emma whispered angrily.

Her mother had taught her that if someone were insulting her, she'd just let them say what they wanted to say.

Because if she fought with them, she would be stooping down to their level.

"Why aren't you saying anything, Emma? Do you think we're terrified of you simply because Quentin supported you?"

Seeing Emma's unresponsiveness, Harvey couldn't help but be angry.

Harvey was like a leader in kindergarten, so practically every child feared him.

"Emma is a fatherless child! Emma is a fatherless child! Emma is a fatherless child! Emma is a fatherless child..."

The children repeatedly shouted, in a singing voice though it was quite hurtful in Emma's ears.

Harvey encouraged a handful of children, who frequently played with him, to yell together.
