Susan smiled broadly. She knew Melanie felt depressed.

“I’m not proud, but grateful. I appreciate whatever I have now and I am grateful to those who make sure I always have enough.”

Melanie laughed bitterly. “Let’s see how long you can be grateful. Would you still be grateful when you couldn’t feel luxury anymore? Let’s just wait.”

Susan nodded. A moment later, her hand stretched towards the door.

“Thank you for visiting my simple room. If you have nothing else to do, may I rest?”

she walked out of Susan’s room.

The servant glanced at her pitifully. She knew how much Susan loved her garden.

“Wait a moment, Mrs. Martin. I’ll call for more help.”
