Chapter 168

I know you’re not stupid. It’s not worth it for those two. But what absusit Rena? That jerk is still Rena’s father, Emery said, getting angrier every she thought about it.

“I have to ask, how did you ever end up marrying that jerk in the first place? This question had been brewing in Emery’s mind for a long time. She always wanted to ask but didn’t dare, afraid of upsetting Paisley.

But now that they were talking about it, she finally let it out.

Well Paisley i teased with a smile. “I mean, he’s hot!

Emery rolled her eyes. “You know I’m not talking about that!”

Paisley knew exactly what Emery wanted to hear. After thinking for a moment, she spoke slowly, “You know, I was three when my grandfather found me. I lived under a lot of pressure until I was thirteen.

“For ten years, Grandfather taught me everything he knew, not just the Ancient Medical Arts, but many other things. Like brewing wine, painting. and more

“During that time, except for the little sleep I got, I spent all my time trying to absorb knowledge. I couldn’t afford to slack off

“Any time I slacked off and was caught by Grandfather, I’d get scolded. He would lock me up on the mountain. No lights, no food.

“I could only come down from the mountain when I could recite all the things he had taught me.

“But there would be no grandfather to come and bring me back this time. So, I chose to leave on my own.

“After I left the Sullivan family, I met Dominick, I was sitting by the side of the road crying, and he was sitting there drinking away his sorrows. I was a rejected orphan with nowhere to go

“He was about to take the position of the family’s head, with so many people waiting to see him fail, trying to trip him up, thinking he couldn’t bear the weight of the responsibility.

“And we fell in love like that. Then, when I was twenty, I married him because he said he wanted to give me a home. A home, Emery. You know how much that meant to me back tient & home with the person I loved”

Paisley’s expression was calm, a light smile on her face, making it seem like she was telling someone else’s story, without any hint of sadness
