Scarlett Glenn raised her head, her eyes red as she asked, "The Herd family tricked you into marriage. Ghiovani Herd, that despicable scumbag, why didn't you divorce him? Didn't your... parents care?"
Mrs. Herd let out a sigh: "Of course, they cared. I contemplated divorce, at that time I thought even seeing them once would cloud my sight. I had even starved myself for the sake of divorce, but I was pregnant. I was carrying a child of the Herd family, how could they agree? Plus, in those times, divorce… was tantamount to a scandal."
Scarlett Glenn clenched her fists. No wonder Ghiovani wasn't a good person, the elders of the Herd family were rotten to the core.
Mrs. Herd seemed a bit better, she touched Scarlett Glenn's hair gently, as if she were telling a story to her daughter.
