Nanny Donne said, 1 heard its been more than ten years.

Nanny Donne has been working for the Thompson Clan for almost nine years.

When she first arrived, Aunt Zhang was already a senior maid in the Thompson Clan.

Mrs. Thompson seldom came to Capital City.

Therefore, she was not very familiar with the Thompson Clans servants.

Hearing that Aunt Zhang had been working here for more than ten years, Mrs. Thompson was astonished.

Usually, few people could persist for more than ten years in the same environment.

Except,

Noticing the doubt in Mrs. Thompsons eyes, Nanny Donne explained with a smile, The Master and the Mistress are very kind to us, they never scold or beat us, and the salary is higher than other places.

With better treatment, people naturally wouldnt want to change jobs.

Nanny Donne continued, 1 have worked here for nine years myself.bender

Nine years ago, she was a young girl.

Now, she is a mother of two children.

Upon hearing the explanation, Mrs. Thompson nodded and asked, So, how is this Aunt Zhang as a person?

Shes pretty good, Nanny Donne said, giving a generally positive evaluation of Aunt Zhang, She doesnt talk much, is very meticulous in her work, and doesnt like to trouble others.

At this point, Nanny Donne paused and continued, However, 1 heard that

Aunt Zhang is also a woman with a tough fate.

How so? Mrs. Thompson asked.

Nanny Donne glanced around and lowered her voice, She married a gambling addict who also loves drinking. I heard that when hes drunk, he doesnt recognize his family.

Theres an old saying: men fear entering the wrong profession, women fear marrying the wrong man.

Aunt Zhang married the wrong man.

People of that generation had conservative mindsets and would not easily divorce, so marriage was a lifetime commitment.

Hearing this, Mrs. Thompson sighed. As a fellow woman, she felt sympathy for Aunt Zhang.

Does she have children? Mrs. Thompson asked again.

Nanny Donne replied, She was pregnant before, but her husband beat the child out of her, and she lost her fertility afterwards.

Mrs. Thompson was shocked.

As she continued to speak, Nanny Donne added, l guess Aunt Zhangs quiet personality is related to her experiences. Shes actually a pitiful woman, too.

Marrying the wrong man, losing a child due to domestic violence, and her fertilitysuch pain is unfathomable for a woman.

Mrs. Thompson felt both pity and confusion, If thats the case, why doesnt she divorce him?

Nanny Donne replied, Divorce may sound easy, but that gambling addict threatened that if Aunt Zhang dared to divorce him, he would kill all her nephews and nieces.

Mrs. Thompson frowned.

How could there be such people in this world!

Too despicable.

At that moment, Aunt Zhang came out of Sylvia Thompsons room with a fruit plate.

Nanny Donne immediately changed the topic, Mrs. Thompson, Im going to go back to my work now, please call me if you need anything.

Hmm. Mrs. Thompson nodded.

As Mrs. Thompson watched Aunt Zhangs retreating figure, she felt as if she had overlooked something important.

Grandma. Sylvia Thompson came out of her room.

Whats wrong? Mrs. Thompson turned to look at Sylvia.

Sylvia smiled warmly, Grandma, here are some profiles of girls who match my sisters characteristics. Please take a look.

With that, she handed Mrs. Thompson a stack of profiles.

Mrs. Thompson took the profiles, looked through them, and then asked, Why are there 21-year-olds and 15-year-olds?

And more than one of each.

Sylvia explained, If the kidnappers took my sister away, they must have changed her age to prevent us from finding her. So, I set the age range between 15 and 21 years old.

This explanation seemed reasonable, but for some reason, Mrs. Thompson just didnt want to believe that Sylvia would genuinely help find Viola Thompson.

Mrs. Thompson looked at Sylvia, How would I know if you would secretly dispose of Violas information behind my back?

This hypothesis was certainly possible.

After all, peoples hearts are hidden behind their stomachs.

Regarding the search for Viola Thompson, except for blood relatives, Mrs. Thompson was unwilling to trust anyone.

Sylvia, who had been hit right in the heart by Mrs. Thompsons words, had tears in her eyes. Grandma, Im not that kind of person. She knew Mrs. Thompson didnt see her as a real granddaughter.

But this was very hurtful at the moment.

If she hadnt destroyed Viola Thompsons information, perhaps she would have been kicked out of the Thompson Clan by now, right?

Why can a persons heart be so biased?

Is this really fair to her?

l wish my son and daughter-in-law hadnt brought up an ungrateful and vicious man! Seeing Sylvias teary-eyed look, Mrs.. Thompson felt even more irritated and said, All you do is cry! Havent all those years of etiquette training made any difference? What did you learn?
