“Whether you like it or not, you’re getting married this time. I know what you’re thinking about. You’re just waiting for Alex to marry you, aren’t you? But there’s no hope for that anymore. Alex is going to marry Kate.”

With that, Carmen yanked Heather from the bed and started pulling her out of the room.

Never Marry Him

“Mom, what are you doing? I’ve told you, I won’t marry him. There’s no way I’m marrying a man old enough to be my father just for money.”

Heather struggled with all her might but to no avail. These days, Carmen had been doing a lot of physical work, be it household chores or outside work to earn money. Thus, her strength was much greater than that of Heather.

Ignoring Heather’s struggle, Carmen continued to drag her out of the room. She was genuinely terrified of enduring a life of poverty and couldn’t bear it for even a single day. The only person with the potential to change this situation was Heather.

“Mom, if you keep forcing me like this, I might as well die!” Heather said defiantly.

Upon hearing her daughter’s words, Carmen gradually calmed down. She released Heather’s hand with an apologetic expression on her face.

“I’m sorry, Heather, I was too harsh just now. Please don’t be mad at me. I’m at my wit’s end. I’m worn out from working and doing housework every day. I can’t go on like this anymore. can only place my hopes on you.”
