Chapter 357: 357. Cried_1

Helen Melendy looked at her with a heartache as she watched the smile on her face, reached out, and ruffled her hair, "You did succeed, though. At eighteen, you got your MBA from Princeton, and even a master’s from medical school, but most importantly, you met me."

Elly Campbell was amused by what she said next, but then she thought of something, and her smile faded slightly, a touch of wistfulness on her face, "Indeed, eighteen is such a beautiful age."

At eighteen, she returned home in high spirits, waiting to get engaged to him, only to be greeted with his engagement withdrawal.
