The Woman From Hell

Chapter 172

"You're going to quit the moment you get married? Didn't you swear you'd never be a housewife?"

We used to talk about life, and I knew Heidi had shared my views. She also thought that even after getting married, a woman should have her own career, otherwise she would be looked down upon by others.
