The kind-hearted Vivian could feel her heart aching for the young lady in front of her who was crying miserably.

“I'm so sorry, Lucy. I didn't know your grandpa had passed away. If I had known that, I would definitely have returned to look for you.”

Kurt could not help but take a few additional glances at Lucy.

Lucy wiped her tears while saying, “I'm fine. My uncle treats me well. Even though he objected strongly to my mom's decision to marry my dad last time, he brought me here to take care of me immediately after knowing that I was all alone.”
