"Somehow, I wasn't too shocked. I knew that she was increasingly growing tired of our situation inside the house. So, when she left, I just accepted it."
"Something in my heart just let her be since I know that she would be happier that way. At least one of us would be happy, right?"
"With her absence, I tried hard to keep our family in order. At that point, the luxury that I once had was now gone. Our cooks, drivers, and maids had all left, pity seen in their eyes. The only thing left was our house."
