Chapter 826


    Last night, she slept against the door.


    When she woke up, the splitting headache and the smell of alcohol reminded her that she had gone a


    crazy night with Cindy in the barst night.


    Sleeping on the cold floor, she felt her head hurt even more.


    She slowly straightened up and looked up at the clock. It was already eleven at noon.


    God, she had never gone crazy like this.


    The hangover brought her a bad headache.


    "Atishoo," she sneezed.


    Judging from her icy body, she seemed to have a bad cold.


    On the sofa, she felt listless and numb. Some memory came back to her mind. In the early morning


    yesterday, Henry seemed toe for her.


    She and Cindy left the celebration party early, then went to the club. Henry waited for her at the door,


    whose finger was pinched.


    Suddenly, she sobered up.


    It was because she mmed the door hard that Henry was in great pain.


    May felt guilty for him.


    She rarely got drunk or acted capriciously.


    Then, she remembered that the annoying woman, Shirley, was also there. She said she would take


    Henry to the hospital for his hurt finger.


    "... Yeah, there''s always someone to take care of him."


    "I am his girlfriend in name only."


    May talked to the air dejectedly, like a crazy woman with messy hair.


    She was ridiculed and scolded by those women at the partyst night.


    Why did they bully such an ordinary girl like her?


    Perhaps, it was just like that woman said she was too avaricious and took something that didn''t belong


    to her.


    Henry was too good for her.


    May felt an inferiorityplex.


    It had been buried in her mind for so many years and made her want to settle down and get married.


    "Am I wrong to force a man to marry me? I''m too greedy..." she began to suspect herself.


    Her sore body and all those distressful memories turned into her tears, flowing down.


    "Didn''t I deserve a normal and happy life or just stability?"


    Why did everyone say she was greedy?


    She didn''t want Henry''s money, only hoped that he would spend more time with her, like an ordinary


    couple. At night, the whole family would sit together, eating and chatting. Maybe they weren''t rich, but


    they had each other''spany.


    There was always a sense of inferiority and insecurity damaging her seven-year rtionship, which


    was torturing her like a ghost.


    She couldn''t help Henry''s dream to be in the upper circle.


    Maybe in the future, they wouldn''t have somethingmon to talk about.


    "Such a rtionship will never end well. Even if he is forced to marry her, so what? Many married


    couples get a divorce atst."


    The better his career went, the bigger space between them.

    She was too ordinary to deserve him, no matter how hard she tried.


    "I will be a burden, even if Henry doesn''t break me up."


    "He deserves someone better."


    At yesterday''s celebration party, those women dressed up fancy said the cruelest but most realistic


    words to her.


    They were right.


    "People shouldn''t covet things that don''t belong to them. Otherwise, they will end up with suffering."


    But she was never a greedy.


    She hugged herself on the sofa, with tears streaming down her face, which she didn''t know for whom.


    She just felt that she deserved it.


    "Knock, knock."


    Just then, someone knocked on the door.


    A familiar voice called outside the iron door, "May, are you at home?"


    It was her mother.


    May had always been a strong girl in her parents'' eyes and had nothing to worry about. Her mother''s


    voice woke her up. She quickly wiped away her tears. Otherwise, her mother would worry.


    She pulled herself together and held back the tears.


    Then she fixed her hair and took a deep breath.


    People outside shouted anxiously, "Hello? Is anyone home?"


    Her little brother asked, "Maybe we make mistake. How could May live in such a shabby ce? She


    made a big fortune in France."


    May smiled bitterly. She had never said that she made a fortune abroad. She just sent some money


    home that was then squandered by her family.


    "I''ming. Wait a second."


    She put on a face of happiness and opened the door.


    "What takes you so long..."


    May''s mother smelled the alcohol and shouted in surprise to her, "What''s going on? Did you drink?"


    Her daughter had never drunk before.


    "She is an adult and has lived abroad for so many years. It''s normal." her little brother pleaded for her


    tteringly.


    "May, meet my girlfriend, Manda."


    Manda was slightly built with short dyed hair, looking very fashionable and smart.


    She greeted May in a sweet voice, "Nice to meet you, May."


    May nodded with a smile.


    "What girlfriend? Manda is my daughter-inw now. They have registered and will hold the banquet


    soon." her mother said reproachfully. Then she went into the room and called out.


    "Why are you standing outside? Come in."


    Into the house, they realized that it was much smaller than imagined. It was at most 25 square meters,


    with old furniture. The small sofa had worn out badly.


    Manda''s smile disappeared. She didn''t want to sit somewhere that would dirty her new dress.


    "May, what a shabby ce you live in."


    "Yeah. How can you treat yourself so badly?" Her mother gazed around the room and found no good


    furniture.


    May gave them a faint smile.


    After a while, Manda suddenly said, "Do you have a fight with your foreign boyfriend?"


    Women are born to be a detective. When she came in, she found that May was hungover and cried


    with her red eyes.
