Ch. 2561..2570

Chapter 2561 Kingston could not imagine how it feels for a mother not to love her own children.

Subconsciously, Kingston raised his arm and put the girl in his arms. He did not intend to do anything indecent to her. It was just a natural expression for him. He wanted to comfort her and give her strength.

The girl did not object either. Perhaps she was too tired and emotionally exhausted. She was feeling very aggrieved, so she bawled her eyes out in Kingston's arms.

"Do you know how inferior both my brother and I got after we've been laughed at by our cousins? You have no idea!

Not only was my mother very harsh on my brother and me when it came to food and kept satisfying her family, but it came to clothes as well. We were already very tight on budget for clothes and we didn't have much money left over after a year, to begin with. My father originally wanted to buy new clothes for my brother and me, but my mother took the money meant for our new clothes and gave it to my grandparents," she cried.

"In the end, both my brother and I had no new clothes to wear in the new year. When all of our relatives gathered together, all of our cousins were dressed in fresh and new clothes. My brother and I were the only exceptions. We just stood in the middle of them like little fools. Do you know how inferior both of US feel? My brother felt so inferior that he covered his eyes and cried. When I got a little older, I felt unsatisfied. I then grabbed a handful of dirt and threw it onto my cousin's pretty ski jacket, and my aunts and my mother saw me doing that. My aunts scolded me for being malicious. They scolded me for being as evil-minded as my father. My mother was even so angry that she beat me up aggressively. That time, she had beaten me up so much that I was bleeding out of my ears. She beat me up at my grandmother's house and she continued after we got home. While she beat me up, she cursed at me. She said that I was useless, she said I was just as lowly and as malevolent as my father, she said that I was unlike her at all, who was selfless, open, and fair. She asked how she could have married into a family of greedy people."

Kingston was speechless. How could there be such a mother in this world? However, after he thought about it carefully, mothers like these do exist.

The majority of the older generation, especially those who were still living in villages, still had that kind of mindset. If there were any good food and drinks, they certainly would not give them to their own children. They would have to save it for other children. This way, they would be able to get a good reputation in the outside world.

'Look, she is so selfless. Look, she is such a good person, she is nicer to other people's children than her children.' There were way too many people like that. However, there were only a few who went as overboard as Eevonne's mother.

Eevonne cried. "My brother and I grew up in that kind of environment. My mother kept criticizing US for being inferior to others all day long. She said we have no conscience and she kept criticizing us for this and that. That was the kind of environment we grew up in.

"I have very low self-esteem. I have always been looked down upon since childhood. I felt that I was living just like a clown. I didn't want to go to school at all and I didn't want to study. My mother never felt that I could do well academically either. Therefore, I dropped out of school after I graduated middle school. II Kingston looked at Eevonne in disbelief. "You dropped out of school when you were so young. Then, what...what could you work as when you were so young?"

Eevonne suddenly smiled. "You could never imagine what kind of jobs I've done after that."

Chapter 2562 Kingston was shocked. "You...can't be working in that kind of profession, right?"

That was Kingston's first reaction. At the same time, he was worrying because Yvonne also had no one to rely on and was at her wit's end. He wondered what kind of job she would be working to support herself and both her children. All of the thoughts in his mind were negative.

Eevonne smiled miserably. "Kingston, even you think that way. You can imagine what my family and my relatives think about me, right?"

Kingston's expression was darkened and also surprised as he looked at her. "If you're not working that kind of job, then you are?

II At that moment, Kingston did not understand what Eevonne meant.

There was a kind of pride in her tone that was not easily detected. " Kingston, it may be unexpected to you, but I'm actually a very intelligent girl. I'm very intelligent when it comes to learning and acceptance. It was just that I had low self-esteem when I was a student and my family was so poor that I couldn't afford to go to school. On top of that, I didn't put my mind to my studies as well. Therefore, I dropped out of school. However, I'm very intelligent by nature. I could master many things as soon as I learned them. Take my working experience after I've gone to the city to work, for example. At first, I was just an ordinary worker in the factory.

However, after working for only three months, I learned the entire process of the factory. It was also because of an unexpected opportunity that I got promoted by the head of the factory to be a quality inspector working in the office."

Kingson let out a long sigh when he heard that.

His tone also became relaxed. "That's good. That's good."

"But do you know?" Eevonne smiled miserably. "All the boys and girls in the office but me were fashionably dressed and were very youthful. I was the only girl who was extremely unfashionably dressed. Not only that, but my mother only let me keep two hundred dollars when my monthly salary was about three thousand at that time. Because accommodations and meals were provided by the factory and I was usually wearing workwear, my mom felt that I did not need much money to spend. The reason she let me keep two hundred dollars was to buy sanitary pads, soaps, and all the daily necessities. The remaining money had to be sent to my mother. With all this money, my mother was then able to be puffed up with pride among her siblings. However, a new problem arose."

"What's the problem?" Kingston asked.

"All my relatives in the village, especially my maternal relatives, did not believe that a girl who had only graduated middle school was able to make three thousand dollars a month after only leaving the house and working for three months. You may think that a girl who has just graduated could make almost six thousand dollars to maybe even ten thousand dollars now, but I was talking about more than ten years ago. I'm already twenty-eight this year. All these are already things that happened ten years ago.

Three thousand dollars back then was truly a lot. My maternal relatives did not believe that I could have such a high income, and they were very suspicious of my source of income. My mother and her family have always had a very good relationship.

Therefore, she would believe everything my uncle and aunts told her. Because when my cousin had just graduated from a sports academy ten years ago and was teaching weightlifting in our local school, he only made two thousand dollars a month. What made my aunt feel even more unfair was her daughter's salary. At that time, after my cousin graduated from nursing school, she worked as a nurse at a small clinic and her monthly salary was only a thousand dollars.

Therefore, both my cousins', one was a college graduate and one a nurse, salary combined together was only as high as mine, a girl who had gone out of town to work. Besides, I was someone they had looked down upon since I was a child."

Chapter 2563 "They felt that my clothes were dirty, I was smelly, silly, and I have always been looking down on the floor when I walked, so how could I be more successful than their children? My mother used the money I had sent her in the first month to buy new clothes for my grandparents, my uncle and his wife, and also my cousins. She even bought them lamb, ham, and all sorts of gifts, she had spent more than a thousand dollars and she went to my grandparent's house. In the end, her spirits were dampened by my uncle and his wife."

Kingston could not help but ask, "she brought so many gifts to your grandparent's house, but she was still not welcomed?"

"My uncle and aunt had no problems with my mother. They have always known that my mother is a good person. Not only them, but even the people in my grandparent's village knew that my mother is a good daughter, a good sister, and a good aunt. The person they slandered was not my mother but me. Do you know what my uncle and aunt said about me?" Eevonne shrugged and pretended that it did not matter to her as she looked at Kingston with a smile.

Kingston clearly saw misery and grievances in the girl's eyes. This time, he clearly had figured out how her uncle and aunt judge the girl before his eyes.

"Your uncle and aunt thought that your salary was too high. They thought that you were...doing some indecent job, didn't they?

They thought you'd done some morally corrupt things, didn't they?" Kingston asked the girl in a deep and gentle tone.

The girl lifted her head to look at Kingston. "Do you believe that I've not done that kind of thing?"

Kingston nodded firmly. "I do!"

Suddenly, tears welled up in the girl's eyes, she tried her best to hold her tears back and not let herself cry. However, as soon as she spoke, she still burst out crying, "But...but my mother...my mother didn't believe me."

Kingston was speechless.

"My mother called me and scolded me for being a person who had gone astray. She said that I had never picked up any of her merits my whole life. She was a proud person with great integrity.

Everyone in her family was so successful. But what about me? She said that my brother and I just looked like the lazy people who just loaf around all day. Both of US were just like the people from my father's side of the family. We're both unsuccessful and without integrity! We just knew about doing shameful things. We just couldn't change our habit of doing underhanded things."

"That's outrageous!" Kingston was so angry that he raised his hand and slammed it on the nightstand beside the hospital bed.

The tape on his hand that was holding the infusion needle in place nearly fell off because of that slam.

"How can there be such a mother in this world? she didn't believe her own daughter, but she believed others!" Kingston said extremely furiously.

The girl shook her head and smiled miserably. "However, my uncle and aunts are not just anybody to my mother. In her eyes, her siblings are her closest family. My mother and her siblings had never had any conflicts. They had always loved each other. The relationship between the siblings was so good that everyone in our village was envious of them."

Kingston became even more furious. "Therefore, in order to maintain her relationship with her siblings, she sacrificed her daughter and her husband?"

"That was not all." Eevonne's tears streamed down her face at that time. "In my mother's eyes and mind, she has always thought that she had married someone that was unworthy to be with her, and that the children she had given birth took after that man.

They were nothing like her and they were all a bunch of despicable things.

"My mother had always been looking down on my brother and me in her core, so..."

"So what happened?" Kingston asked her with concern. He was afraid that the next thing Eevonne was going to say would be debasing herself.

She was such a good girl, she should never debase herself.

Kingston looked at her eagerly.

Eevonne sighed. "So, in order to not let everyone look down on me, I wanted to hold my head up even more. Therefore, I..."

Chapter 2564 Kingston looked at the girl before him nervously. He was thinking that no matter what had the girl done in the past, he would not dislike her for it. she would still be her friend and would still treat her as his own benefactor. That was because it was truly difficult to judge if a person was good or bad. Even if she was a criminal in prison, she would also have her good side.

Take Sabrina, for example, she had been imprisoned for a few years in the past. Could that be enough to determine that Sabrina was a bad and despicable person who deserved to be condemned?

No.

It was quite the opposite. Sabrina was an incredibly proud, kind, and good person who bore no ill-will toward others.

Kingston looked at the girl in front of him with an even gentler gaze and said in a tone that was just as incredibly gentle, "

Eevonne, no matter what kind of job you've done in the past that you're going to be telling me next, in my eyes, you're a good girl. You'll forever be my benefactor. 1 have seen the sufferings and injustice you've experienced in the past before you met me.

Listen to me, you don't experience that in the future anymore. In the future, I'll back you up!"

There has never been a moment like that moment where Kingston felt that the 20 percent of the Ford Group's shares given to him by Sebastian would make him feel that they had such great use.

Kingston was not interested in money. He was even more uninterested in power.

His life goal was actually very small. It was enough for him as long as he could live comfortably and have a wife.

In the past, when he was following Sebastian, all he was thinking of was to spend the rest of his life protecting Sebastian. Even Sebastian's wife and children were his lifelong responsibility.

It was because he treated Sebastian as his family that he accepted the 20 percent of the company's shares that Sebastian had given him.

Kingston was not too surprised about the money. He was surprised at that time because he felt that Sebastian's bond with him was truly very strong. He felt that it was all worth it for following Sebastian all his life.

It was at that very moment that Kingston truly felt how useful it was to be one of the five directors of the Ford Group.

At least when this girl was bullied in the future, he could step up and tell those people who had bullied her in an incredibly condescending manner that somebody has her back! Also, the person backing her up was quite powerful! He wanted to let all the people who bullied the girl know that he was not afraid of anybody, no matter how powerful!

Eevonne smiled happily. "Thank you for backing me up."

After that, she looked at Kingston incredulously again, "You don't mind what I had done in the past at all?"

"That is your past, and it is already in the past. As long as you do well in the future, you'll simply be a good girl. Besides, no matter what you have done, you're my benefactor, that's a fact that can't be changed. I have no right to despise my benefactor.

Tell me, Eevonne, what have you done after that?" Kingston asked calmly.

Eevonne smiled. "I don't know if it's good or bad, but it's mainly related to me. I was too vain."

"Vain?" Kingston was thinking, could she have become a homewrecker for the sake of money?

"Yes, I was a vain girl with low self-esteem, when I heard my mother scolding and telling me what my uncle and aunts have said to slander me, I thought, I must make something of myself. I must be outstanding! On top of that, I was working at the office of the factory at that time. All of the girls and boys were dressed very glamorously. I had told you just now that even though an exception had been made for me and I was transferred into the office, I was the most unfashionable girl in there. Do you know what they thought of me at that time? They just...thought of me like I'm a monkey performing tricks, when I wore my skate shoes that I had brought from my hometown, they would sarcastically ask me what the brand was and comment that I was good at pairing it."

Chapter 2565 "In that office, not only did I have to finish my own work every day, but I also had to make tea for everyone and be scolded by them."

Kingston was speechless. Actually, in all fairness, this kind of thing was something he had seen very often, so he was not shocked by it. Putting aside other places and just looking at the Ford Group, this kind of phenomenon was also happening all over those small departments and small branches. If a newcomer was dishonest or would not conform to the group, the person would more or less be taught a lesson by the older staff.

Just take Sabrina, for example, when she first started working at the architectural design firm, she was also ostracized to the point that she almost could not continue working there.

Fortunately, Sabrina was a person who was unfazed by flattery or humiliation. Her beauty, meticulous thoughts, calmness, and her competency at work could forcibly subdue many people. Besides, Sabrina had very strong support behind her, who was Sebastian. At that time, whoever dared to bully Sabrina truly had a death wish.

However, Sabrina was the only one who could do that in the entire South City.

"I know that many novels and television shows would have such a character. The female protagonist would start out being bullied by others. She would be prideful and unyielding by nature, and she would successfully make a comeback in those incredibly harsh environments. Not only that, but she would be valued by a rich and handsome man, who would not marry anyone but her. However, Kingston, that is just a character in a fairytale. Reality is not like that. Do you know what would happen in reality? she would be just like me," Eevonne said to Kingston while smiling in a self‐ mocking manner.

Kingston nodded heartbreakingly. "I know, Eevonne, I know. I know that every young girl in this world has the same kind of experience as Sabrina, but not every girl could be as lucky as her.

"The majority of the girls in this world are ordinary. Nobody knew how many girls have experienced darkness and how they comfort their pain deep down. However, listen to me carefully, Eevonne. Even if there is nobody who loves you in this world, you have to love yourself. You have to eat, drink, and take care of your body. Do you understand?"

Eevonne, who had originally already calmed down, suddenly burst into tears again. "Kingston, how great it would be if I could just get to know you a few years, just a few years, earlier? Do you know how lonely I feel? Do you know how terrible I felt when I was ostracized by others? I don't have an arrogant facade. I was very scared, weak, easily giving in, and had very low self-esteem. I don't have that kind of strong and independent mindset like those female protagonists in the novels. I simply don't. I was just an extremely originally ugly duckling. I was indeed intelligent, but I was inexperienced. In the eyes of my colleagues from the office, I was truly someone who did not know anything.

Therefore, when they looked down on me, there was nothing I could do. My self- esteem got even lower. Also, my temper got even more aggressive. I wanted it even more to prove myself. I then thought that I have to get a better job, and then come back to walk all over them! In order to change to a better job, I..."

Speaking of that, Eevonne paused for a moment and her face instantly became red. She did not say anything, but Kingston already knew what she was going to say. It should be nothing more than she had done something against her conviction for the sake of getting a good job. She might have even gotten involved with some men that she should not have been involved with.

All of those were things that Kingston could accept.

However, he never expected that after Eevonne had bitten her lips for a while, she said with great difficulty, "To let myself get a better job to satisfy my vanity, I made a fake diploma for myself, and then I submitted it with my resume."

Kingston instantly smiled. "That's it? You feel...extremely guilty because of this?"

Chapter 2566 "You wouldn't look down on me because of this?" Eevonne asked in disbelief.

Kingston laughed incredibly brightly. "You're truly a very cute and silly girl. Of course, I won't look down on you. On the contrary, I felt you're quite witty."

Eevonne was speechless. It was after a long while that she asked, " Why is it that you won't look down on me?"

Kingston gave it a thought. " Many years ago, I met a girl, and her life at that time was even tougher than yours. At that time, she even had a child with her. When she was looking for a job, she kept getting rejected because she did not have the academic qualifications. In the end, she was already at her wit's end, so she faked her academic qualifications. Since then, she had been working the same job until today, she is already the best of the best in the industry, but she still didn't have a college degree."

"R-Really?" Eevonne asked.

Kingston nodded. "Of course, it's real."

"In fact, a person's academic qualifications don't mean anything. The most important thing is that this person is willing to work hard and produce results. That's the most important thing, what do you think?" he said to her with an encouraging tone.

Eevonne blushed and smiled. "However, I don't think I'm as successful as your friend."

Kingston was confused. "How so?"

"I was a middle school graduate, but I made a fake diploma and told others I was a college graduate. This lie was a little too exaggerated. I was recruited, but not long after I got into the company, I was found out. Immediately after, everyone in the company looked at me differently. Once they got behind my back, they would gossip about me. In the end, they didn't even try to do it behind my back anymore. Many of the colleagues in the company find fault with me. I knew I was wrong, so I...didn't dare to resist. I originally thought that my boss would...fire me once he learned about this matter. However, I never expected that my boss would specifically call for a company-wide meeting because of my matter. II Kingston looked at her in surprise. "It's not that big of a deal, but he called for a company-wide meeting? Was that necessary? He should have just reprimanded you. At worst, fire you! He actually called for a company-wide meeting?"

"No, it's not like that." Eevonne laughed in a relaxed manner. " That was actually a very small company. There were only a total of twenty staff in the office. There were only a little more than a hundred people working in the space outside the office, with all the people in the factory combined, there was only one hundred and fifty staff working there.

It's not considered big."

"Oh. Even if the factory didn't have many people, he can't have a company-wide meeting to fire you. You didn't steal the company's assets and whatnot, and you didn't destroy the company's properties. You just made a fake diploma.

That's all. The worst case should just be getting fired!"

When she heard Kingston saying that, Eevonne smiled miserably. " If it was just getting fired, then that may be cutting short the pain I would be suffering. However, my boss did not fire me in public at that time."

After taking a pause, she said gloomily, "At that time, my boss revealed the matter of me faking a diploma to all of the staff, and he also reprimanded me for my bad behavior. I originally wanted to just leave. However, my boss said something at that time. He said that he pitied me, so he would be giving me a chance to turn over a new leaf. He asked me to reflect on my actions once in front of the entire staff. That was nothing. Since then, my boss would keep bringing up my matter every now and then. Also, every time he brought it up, he would ask if I had turned over a new leaf so that I would remember my shame at all times. Kingston, do you know what that feels like? To use a very civilized phrase to describe it, he was simply putting me in my own mental prison. He wanted me to remember my shame at all times. Not only that, but he even wanted me to be grateful to him for training me and giving me an opportunity."

Chapter 2567 "Also, he would be criticizing me in front of the whole company. Ever since then, if I say that my position in the company can't even be compared to a dog, would you believe me, Kingston? However, what can I say? Firstly, I did use a fake diploma to get a job that was not supposed to be mine. In terms of my own vanity, I truly did not want to give up because this job at the company would allow me to lift my head up high in front of my mother and her family. Didn't they think that I was a despicable and good-for- nothing person? Didn't they think that a middle school graduate like me was incompetent and would not have a better job than their children, who were college graduates? Look at me. I am now working an office job in a company in the big city. How dignified!"

Kingston was speechless. When Eevonne was experiencing that all in the past, he was not involved. He thought that if he was involved at that time, he might be influenced by her boss. On top of that, the girl truly was vain, so Kingston might not like her.

However, at that moment, the matter was already in the past, so when Kingston listened to Eevonne telling him about the matter, he felt that she was an honest person. At the very least, she was facing the childish matter that she had done in the past. At that moment, she was probably more honest than she once was in the past.

Also, Kingston had been through so many things and all the ups and downs in life during that period, so he understood the difficulties of everyone. His uncle and aunt's past, included, also made him understand that nobody living in this world has had it easy.

As long as she did not harm others and did not do any heinous things, it was fine if she was a little vain or had a little something to hide. In fact, the majority of people had their own difficulties that were hard for them to speak of.

Take Eevonne, for example. He believed that she was not a vain child who was both conceited and inferior when she was born. However, the environment she had lived in and her family had made these ideas ingrained in her. The main thing was that her mother disapproved of her and did not protect her, so she caused her relatives to form a prejudice against her.

All of that led her to become vain at her core. In fact, she only wanted to be approved of and wanted to hold her head up high in front of her relatives and the people she cared about.

Kingston felt incredibly sorry for this girl. On top of that, Eevonne was his benefactor who had saved his life, she did not hesitate at all when she saved him, and she was very brave and selfless.

That made Kingston understand that even if a girl had plenty of flaws and was disliked by many, she would still have an adorable side and a respectable side to her.

"Kingston, do you know what vain and how arrogant I was back then? On one hand, I enjoyed being seen in a new light by my mother and her family. When I return to my hometown, I would dress very fashionably and very city-like. I would show off and hold my head up high in front of my cousins. On the other hand, I was very shameful and cowardly at my company."

Kingston was speechless.

"Kingston, in fact, you never would have imagined how much self- respect I have lost and how inferior I felt after working in that company for three years. I even felt that my sense of inferiority had gotten out of hand during that time.

Do you know? In order to be seen as equals to my colleagues in the company, to not let them look down on me and underestimate me, I exhausted all the ways to dress myself up. I did my best to make my appearance more like them. I spent all of my salaries every month. The money that I sent home to my mother was money that I had gone out of the way to borrow. Do you know how it feels to borrow money from people who already looked down on me? Kingston, you must feel that I was the one who brought it all on myself. I was the one who was so vain that I spent all of my money and then borrowed more."

Speaking of that, Eevonne's voice was already hoarse. Kingston could tell that she must be in great pain when she recounted that part of her life.

At that moment, he felt even more sorry for her.

"Eevonne, you're a good girl. Among all the girls I have met, you're a brave girl that is hard to come by," he then said sincerely.

Chapter 2568 Tears welled up in Eevonne's eyes again. "No, I am not a good girl, Kingston. I'm a hot mess. I was not sensible at all.

Kingston, 1 had truly regretted all those things that I had done. Do you know?

There is a good saying which says that every pitiful person must have made some mistakes in the past that made them that way. Do you know when I was at the most pitiful moment in my life? It was not when I was discovered to have faked my diploma. It was also not when I stood in front of the entire company was reprimanded in public. It was.Jt was when I went to my boss, who already hated and looked down on me very much, and asked if I could borrow money from him to satisfy my vanity and to put up a pitiful pride in front of my family. Guess what happened in the end? Once again, that boss used me as an example and criticized me in front of the entire company. He said that my fantasies were too sweet in front of everyone. He said that I was having nothing more than wishful thinking and it was not realistic at all. At that moment, I felt that I was a sinner. I felt that I truly was a terrible mess. I felt how my character could be so messed up. I was feeling so inferior... that I was worse than the most ordinary janitor in the company."

She continued. "What was even more ridiculous was that in order to express my sincerity at that time, and to let the whole company know that I have the intention to repent, I said something that I shouldn't have said in front of everyone.

I said that I truly have brought a bad influence to the company. I was an administrative staff in the office, but my character was worse than a janitor. I offended the entire body of the staff because of that line. As soon as I finished my words, countless voices directly criticized me and even cursed at me. They said who do I think I was. They asked me who gave me the right to use janitors as an analogy. What's wrong with janitors? 'Our boss did not even look down on the janitors, so how could you, a woman with poor character, deserve to be compared to the janitors? You even dare to say that you're an administrative staff in the office. Are you even worthy? Who doesn't know that your diploma was faked? who didn't think that you were borrowing money from all over the place? What were you borrowing money for?

sir, get this woman fired! with a woman like this in the company, she is simply polluting our air in the company!' Kingston, do you know how I pulled through that meeting that was meant to reprimand me? I didn't dare to cry or get angry. I didn't dare to do anything at all. I just stood there and let everyone criticize me. My boss just watched from the side. He did not say anything at all. It was after everyone had vented their anger that my boss said to me, 'Eevonne, you have to make a statement. So many people are correcting your mistakes here. In fact, they are helping you. You have to recognize your mistakes, and then humbly ask for advice from the others in the company. You have to slowly learn to be better. You have to show your attitude. You have to make a statement in front of the entire company.'"

Upon saying that, tears were gushing down Eevonne's cheeks.

At that moment, Kingston was just a listener. He did not say anything. He was simply being a listener while frowning.

From time to time, he would pick up a piece of tissue for Eevonne to wipe her tears.

She just kept crying and crying.

Chapter 2569 That kind of grievance was deeply-rooted in her and was unable to be removed.

"Kingston, do you know the feeling of being brainwashed?" Eevonne raised her teary eyes and looked at him.

Kingston immediately put her in his arms. "Tell me, who is that boss? Where is he now?"

Eevonne shook her head, smiled miserably, and said, "Kingston, don't blame him. Blame me."

"Don't talk about yourself like that, Eevonne!" Kingston said.

She shook her head firmly. "Kingston, the matter has already passed so long. Gradually, I understood some people may never be office workers after working for their whole life. She would forever be in the production line, she would just be a part of the working class and at the bottom of society. However, she could still be respected by others. Do you know why? It is because she doesn't owe others anything, she has her feet on the ground. She is not vain. She would stay on her job and work hard to do her job well. She would use her outstanding results to gain the respect of others.

She is not weak and she won't look down on her own circumstances. Even if others temporarily looked down on her, she would be able to endure it. she would wait for the harsh winter to pass and for spring to come. However, I am not that kind of girl, Kingston. Ever since I started working, I have had a thought in my mind. Since I have gone out to work, I have to get a job that could show off my identity. However, I had never thought of the fact that I was uncultured and my academic qualifications were not enough. Even if I was lucky and was promoted to become an administrative staff working in the office, I did not produce any results. Not only did I not produce any results, I even took another risk and made a fake diploma. My results and my fake diploma did not match each other. That was the second wrong move that I had made. The third wrong move was that even though that boss was harsh, he still let me stay in the end, which was an opportunity for me as well, and I should've learned from that painful mistake at that time and worked hard to do my job well. I had no money at that time, but other than sending money to my mother, I actually still have a few hundred dollars that were enough for me to scrape by. I shouldn't have compared myself to others at that time and overspent my money every month to buy so many pretty clothes to satisfy my vanity. At that time, I should have worked hard, learned a skill properly, learned another language, and done my best to improve myself. However, I did not do that. Not only did I not improve on my ability, but I even shamelessly asked to borrow money from my boss."

She continued. "Kingston, I can't blame others on this matter. I can only blame myself. I don't hold a grudge against anybody.

However, my only regret was that I shouldn't have stayed in that company at that time. I should have quit. However, I...

I was already almost drowning in my boss's and my colleagues' criticism at that time. I no longer have the courage anymore. I was feeling so inferior that I no longer have any opinions anymore. I then obeyed my boss' words and continued staging in that company. Also, he let me stay working in the office, and he still let me be in charge of what I had usually been doing. At that time, I was so grateful for my boss that, to be honest, I truly admired him from the bottom of my heart. I felt that my boss was truly great. He had given me a new life. I worked extremely hard. I did more than others usually do, and I also worked hard to not let myself make mistakes. Despite being vain, inexperienced, truly uncultured, and without academic qualifications, I had an inborn advantage when it comes to learning the ropes. I was a very fast learner. All of the tasks that I was in charge of were no worse than people with the same position as I do.

Because the amount of work every month had already been properly allocated, I completed everything allocated to me every month. However, even so, they would still find fault with me at every turn. Regardless if it was the sample room, manufacturing room underground, or the finishing room, if anything were to go wrong in any of the steps, they would question me. They had always been very open when they questioned me. Even when something in the company went missing, they would directly call me by my name and ask me if I had stolen it." 1 Kingston suppressed the anger within. "It must not be you, right?

Were things clarified after that?"

Chapter 2570 Eevonne laughed at herself. "Kingston, if your...friend, the friend who had also faked her academic qualifications, had encountered such a matter and was accused by everybody that she had stolen something, how would she deal with it?"

"Her?" Kingston chuckled. "If it's that friend of mine, this would be a small matter to her. she may not even look at those people who have accused her. She would just do her job seriously as usual. While doing that, she might raise her head and look at the people in her surroundings who were questioning her and ask, 'Do you have any evidence? If you do, call the police to arrest me.

If you don't have any evidence, don't be here blocking my way. You're blocking my light. If I made a mistake while drawing the draft, I would come and settle scores with you.' That friend of mine would certainly handle it like that."

Kingston was incredibly proud when he said that.

He knew Sabrina very well. If she had met such a thing, she certainly would handle it like that. Also, she would certainly keep those bunch of idiots who wanted to accuse her. she was absolutely a girl who could face the chaos and changes by remaining calm and collected.

If Sabrina was a man in ancient times, she would be just as powerful as Sebastian. That was the kind of person Sabrina was.

"But I didn't." Eevone's tone was incomparably gloomy.

"I'm sorry, Eevonne. I...I didn't mean to. I just wanted to comfort you. In fact, I know that the majority of the girls in this world would not be able to do that. The majority of the girls. Eevonne, everybody in this world has merits and shortcomings. Take the matter of me being bitten by a snake, for example. If it was Sabrina, she may not immediately risk her life to save mine, but you would. In this case, you're kinder than Sabrina," Kingston said.

When Kingston was saying that, he apologized to Sabrina in his heart a million times.

'I'm sorry, madam. I'm sorry. I've slandered you. You're a generous person, so forgive me. I'm just trying to comfort a girl, madam.

You should know women like you with proud and unyielding character are nowhere to be found. There's not even one among ten thousand women. That was why you're able to win over Master Sebastian's heart.

'However, the majority of the girls in this world are truly, truly just ordinary. Those ordinary girls would have ordinary flaws, and they would make mistakes most of the time.

'However, being able to admit her mistakes and having the intention to repent shows that this girl is very good by nature.

Besides, she is also the person who saved my life. That kind of courage to save others that appeared in an instant truly deserved my admiration.

'Madam, just sacrifice a little. I'm sorry, madam.' Kingston chanted that quietly in his heart, but on the surface, he was still looking at the girl gently. "How did you...handle the matter? Did you get infuriated? Did you want to have a fall out with everyone and resist them?

"Listen to me, the majority of girls might do the same at that moment. That is because everybody is made of flesh and blood and has a temper. You don't have to beat yourself up."

Eevonne shook her head. "I'm not beating myself up. I just felt that I was someone who did not know how to handle troubles.

When I encountered things like that, I really panicked, and when I was in a panic, I became hysterical. I just can't control my emotions. I was very afraid deep down. At that moment, when I saw those people, the people who accused me of stealing, I felt that every one of them was like a ferocious beast. I felt that all of them were bullying me. I was so incredibly devastated that I shouted at those people. I asked them not to force me anymore or I will take my own life in front of them. Kingston, do you find the way that I was ridiculous?"

Kingston did not know what to say. He did not utter a single sound at all. However, he could imagine that scene. In fact, she was a ferocious but extremely pitiful girl.
