Chapter 46

The woman held a black umbrella over Hailey’s head and asked with concern, “Hailey, is something bothering you? You can talk to me

Hailey lifted her head, her gaze landing on the woman’s face.

She smiled and said, “Lily, it’s nothing. I just suddenly started missing my mom?

Lily had been Valerie’s close friend when they were young, However, after Valerie got married and focused on her family, their contact gradually lessened.

Lily was an ambitious woman. Her aspirations had never been tied to a man–her dream was to create her own fashion brand

Now, she had succeeded.

“Ocean Lily” was the brand she had built.

In the first year after her rebirth, Hailey sought out Lily. At that time, “Ocean Lily” was in deep trouble–its designers had been poached, funds were running low, and Lily had fallen into a severe depression, and was on the verge of collapse.

“This was your mother’s favorite place, Lily said slowly. “She was a very elegant woman–talented in everything, quick to learn anything new. Back then, when she was young, she was just like me, full of ambition and hope for the future. But then she met a man, fell in too deep, and could never get out.”

Hailey sighed. “Love makes people blind.”
