Chapter 359: The New Manager

Genevieve cherished her two children above all else in her life. Now, her son had been taken to the police station, and her daughter had been dishonored. Was this truly a debt that needed to be repaid?

She had enjoyed twenty years of glory, and now it seemed she must atone for it with her beloved children. Genevieve knelt on the ground, "Lord, everything is my doing. If there is to be retribution, let it fall upon me, for my two children are innocent."

"Mom, stop talking," Ivy said through tears, her eyes swollen like walnuts. She silently took out the medicine Genevieve had bought and swallowed it. Though the pill was tasteless, her mouth filled with bitterness.

She recalled how those beggars had disgustingly forced their tongues into her mouth the night before, their hands wandering over her body, causing her stomach to churn and making her vomit once again. Having not eaten, there was nothing to vomit but dry heaves. While physical filth could be washed away, the stain on her psyche seemed permanent.

"Never mind, I've made some porridge for you. Eat and rest well. Once you wake up, we'll talk more, and I'll go get more medicine," Genevieve said, feeling somewhat helpless. Such incidents were like nightmares for women. Ivy now understood the sorrow and disgust, but she hadn't considered how Aurora must have felt when she had treated her the same way. Would Aurora have felt just as bad?

Ivy tried to take her medicine again, but she couldn't sleep well. Whenever she dozed off, she dreamt of men crawling towards her body.

"Don't, don't touch me!"

she cried out in her sleep. Genevieve stayed by her side, helpless but patient.

"Ivy, mom is here, you're going to be okay," she said, comforting her until Ivy finally closed her eyes.

The next day, Aurora went to the office refreshed and ready to select a new manager. As she arrived downstairs, she saw Eric, who had not come in his own car but rather in a woman's sedan.
