At seven o’clock in the morning, Mrs. Hunt woke Nora up.

Had it been before, she would have lost her temper a long time ago-after all, she had always been extremely grumpy right after she woke up. Now, though, no matter how displeased she might be, when she saw how aged Mrs. Hunt looked and how she had become even less spirited than before, she could only get out of bed in silence.

Then, under the supervision of Mrs. Hunt, she would go out for a run.

Next to her, Mrs. Hunt said, “You can stop once you work up a sweat. If you don’t, then you have to continue running until it’s eight o’clock. Only then will you look more energetic. It’s obvious from how listless you look all the time that you are not exercising enough.”

Nora let out a big yawn, her eyelids so heavy that she could hardly even lift them.

Mrs. Hunt was still standing where she was and saying, “Can you open your eyes? Otherwise, how would you be able to intimidate and keep those people in the Hunt Corporation in check? They are all waiting to laugh at you today!”

Nora yawned again.

Mrs. Hunt felt even more distressed when she saw her yawning non-stop. She couldn’t help but say to Fanny, “Justin had always been self-disciplined. He went to bed at eleven every night and woke up at five to exercise. How on earth did he fall in love with a lazy woman like her?”

Fanny sighed. “You talk about her so disdainfully, yet you are always encouraging her with your actions!”

Mrs. Hunt said, “Of course I have to be encouraging towards her! Otherwise, what if she goes on strike? Even if it’s just for Pete, I have to inculcate in her a sense of belonging to the Hunts!”

Fanny did not speak.

Mrs. Hunt then said, “I wonder if she will ever remarry, and if she does, will she be willing to be buried next to Justin after her death? Justin would be too lonely if he’s all alone… It’s all my fault. In the past, I had thought that just him being strong would be enough…”

It was only when someone was no longer around that others would realize that it didn’t matter what they did, as long as they were still alive.

Often, people only learned to cherish what they had after losing it.

It was just like how parents often wanted their children to do well in school, but once something went wrong with their health, they would realize that their children’s health and happiness were what truly mattered the most in life.

This was the same for Mrs. Hunt toward Justin.
