"I almost feel sorry for you, Stephany. If you went missing, they would think that you're the devil who deceived and trafficked those children. No one would remember the good deeds you've done. How stupid of you." Howard sneered, deriding Stephany's naivety.

Honestly, I felt sorry for Stephany too. She had done so much for the children... to the extent of impersonating "Stephanie" and marrying Steven just to get money for those kids' medical treatment.

However, her kind heart was exploited by these malicious people, ultimately causing harm to herself and those children.

"Steve is a complete lunatic. I'm surprised he didn't die in that fire!" Howard said through gritted teeth, seething with hatred.
