Chapter 96

Tiffany knew Teresa well and understood the reason behind tonight's dinner invitation.

Teresa was likely feeling lost and empty after giving up her stall.

After all, she had run it for over a decade, and it had become second nature to her. The sudden change must have been difficult to cope with.

However, family life came with its own set of compromises. Having a child was important for their family, and if Teresa wanted to continue her life with Eric, a child could indeed help ease any existing tensions. This was a matter between husband and wife, and Tiffany felt it wasn't her place to overstep.

She could only reassure her, "Perhaps it's for the best that you're not running the stall anymore. It hasn't been easy on you, working so hard and dealing with all kinds of bitterness.
