Karen didn’t say anything. She closed the study door and returned to her bedroom.

Hope wanted to take Karen to the hospital, but Karen, exhausted, was unwilling.

She simply asked someone to bring the first aid kit and treat the injuries on her face.

Seeing Hope crying, she felt as if she was looking at her past self.

Hope was just like Karen used to be, not knowing what to do when encountering problems, only crying.

That morning, as usual, he left with the driver. Once she was sure he was gone, Karen quietly went to Hope’s room and closed the door.
