Her confession was a shot to her heart, and it pried open the long-hidden wound that was hurting inside her.
From a young age, she had moved from place to place. She did not even know how her biological father looked like. For as long as she could remember, she only knew of a mother, and this closest kin left her when she was still young.
She finally managed to have a home. Despite being unrelated by blood, Yun Yecheng still gave her a home!
Although not everyone in this family was kind to her, she was not short of daily necessities.
Repaying gratitude with kindness was a principle she had always lived by. After all, her adoptive father provided financial support for her postgraduate studies even though he himself was strapped on cash. Her heart was not made of iron, and she could not bear to look on unfeelingly as her father was driven into desperation.
With no room to retreat, she signed that humiliating contract.
