On the street.

Kimberly Shell dragged her feet aimlessly. She looked confused. Her eyes were red, and her tears seemed to be welling up in her eyes, and none of them fell out.

She had tugged on her bag so hard that it had become out of shape, and she looked even more pathetic at this moment.

Boom!

Someone ran so fast that he knocked into her. Kimberly fell to the ground. Her bag was torn and all the things inside had scattered on the ground.

The person who hit her stood there awkwardly, "I'm sorry! Are you okay?"

Kimberly stood there, staring at the scene in a daze.

The person who had knocked into her quickly squatted down and picked her things up for her. "I'm sorry. I still have something urgent to do. I'm really sorry. Your things are here." After the man returned the things to Kimberly, he quickly got up and ran away again.

Kimberly picked up all of her belongings by using her bare hands. Her bag was already torn and tattered, and it could no longer keep her belongings.

Kimberly lowered her head so that no one could see the look on her face. After a while, she suddenly laughed in a low voice. The pedestrians avoided her one after another.

Something slid from her face and hit the back of her hand, which soon soaked her sleeves.

She didn't know how much time had passed. She reached out and wiped away the tears on her face after she had cried enough. Then she got up and picked up the bag that was torn, and put her things in it one by one. After that, she rolled up the bag to prevent them from falling out. She stood up and continued walking forward as if nothing had happened.

She wanted to go home and use the money that she had saved over the past few years to buy two sets of clothes in the store, so as to avoid being laughed at by Maddox Yardley. But she didn't expect that her savings would all be gone. Even her mother had also driven her out of the house.

That was... her biological mother.

But she actually... drove her out.

Sometimes Kimberly wondered if she was really her mother's biological child. "Why did Mom favour Erica over me since we were young?" She constantly asked herself this. She didn't know what she had done to make her mother dislike her so much. She worked hard and got good grades. She was an obedient child and she had never gone against her parents' words. Yet they...

She even obeyed their command to marry into the Yardley family on behalf of Erica...

But, nothing seemed to have changed.
