Under Lily's concern and inquiry, the toughness which she had been disguising for days had instantly turned into grievance.

Mary tears poured out: "Lily, I remember that you Edwards were also obstructed by his family before you two get married How did you get through on those tough tome?"

Lily's beautiful eyes flashed with a trace of astonishment, "You mean, Leo's grandmother opposes you two being together?"

"It's not his grandmother, it's his mother!" Mary sighed bitterly.

When the elevator arrived, Lily and Mary went to her office together and her assistant passionately brought over two cups of hot drinks.

Looking at Mary's depressed expression, Lily guessed that this matter must have given her a huge blow.

"Then tell me, why is she against you? I feel that you two are a good match in terms of both personality and appearance." Lily took a sip of chrysanthemum tea and started to gossip.

Mary was at a loss: "That's right, I was also thinking like that in the beginning, I was lively and cheerful, while Leo was steady and mature. If we were to stick together, we would definitely live a happy life, if you have to blame me for being too young, there is also ... I grew up in a single-parent family!"

"So that's the reason!" Lily immediately understood her problem. Indeed, there were some parents who would be wary of each other's family, and normally, when a single family member grew up, they would let others think that their personality had flaws. Of course, this could not be generalized.

"If I wasn't beautiful enough and not intelligent, I could change it by focusing on hard work, but I can't change my age and my family circumstance. I also want to be born two years earlier, and I also hope that my father won't abandon me and my mother!" Mary's heart was full of grievance, she stepped on the place where she hurt the most.

Lily took a tissue and passed it to her, as he comforted her gently, "Mary, don't cry..

"I really love him, I really do. I can't imagine the days without him around me!" The more Mary cried, the more hurt he felt. The sadness that had accumulated for too long had finally found a gap, she just wanted to ruthlessly cry and vent it out.

Lily could understand how painful it would be if two people who deeply loved each other were to face separation. She had also experienced it before, and it would be even more painful than death. She didn't try to persuade Mary otherwise. Instead, she just let her cry for a long time as she continued to hand over tissues to Mary.

Finally, Mary finished crying. Her eyes were swollen like a peach, she continued to wipe her mucus with a tissue, and at the same time said in a sobbing tone," I'm sorry, I've let you watch this joke, I really want to cry, but I have been trying to restrain myself from crying. I can't do it at home, I can't do it at work, I can't do it at home, only at your place."

Looking at her pitiful appearance, Lily was truly pained. With a gentle laugh, she said: "It's fine, crying will help you let out all bad feelings. You have accumulated a lot of negative energy everyday, which makes you both sad and injured.

"Lily, you're such a good woman that's worth being cherished by others!" Mary could not help but exclaim.

When hearing such praise from Mary, Lily felt so shy and said: "You're a good girl too, don't give up on yourself. What about Leo's attitude?"

"Of course he's standing in the middle. He wants to curry favor with both sides. I feel like it's very difficult for him." Mary really didn't blame Leo at all. Right now, she was more angry at herself.

"This will indeed make things difficult for him. On one side is his mother, and on the other is the woman he loves. If it's anyone else, it would be difficult for them!" Lily suddenly thought back to the feeling of helplessness she had when she was trapped in the middle. Thinking about it now, she still felt sorry for Edwards, and then she thought again, maybe she had overdone it at the time.

"I'm afraid we will finally break up, Leo is a filial son, and I don't want to see him falling apart for me and his mother, if that's the case, our love will not only make us happy but also turn into a disaster."

Lily looked at Mary with a little surprise. She never thought that even at such a young age, she would actually see through him so thoroughly.

"Mary, don't be so pessimistic. You have to believe that you two will still be together!" Lily really didn't know how to comfort her, she couldn't help her either.

"You don't know, ever since I was in elementary school, I've been treated badly, and some people even intentionally ran in front of me to show that she has a father, while I don't. Later on, when I was in middle school, someone started to physically attack me, saying that I was a bastard, scolding my mother for being unromantic, and at that time, I had to bear a huge pressure every day. After that, I skipped school more often, and my mom was called to school to interrogate me. Mary thought back to her childhood memories, but it seemed as if they contained no sadness at all. It was as if she had left her behind and was telling her the story of someone else.

Lily looked at her sympathetically, feeling pity for her life.

"When I acted the role, the most impressive scene was not the emotional interaction with the actor, but a scene where I was the daughter of a family. I was injured, and my father beat up that bad guy for me, made the decision for me, and doted on me, only then did I realize that this was the feeling of having a father. Mary leaned on the sofa as she hugged a pillow. There were still traces of tears in her eyes as she recounted her story.

Lily's eyes couldn't help but turn red. Her living environment since childhood wasn't any better than Mary's. Even though she had a father, she still had a stepmother.

Mary suddenly felt that she went too far and laughed: "Forget it, let's not talk about those shameful things anymore. Mary, after chatting with you for a while, I am feeling better now, I won't disturb you from working, I have to go first!"

"Alright, take care of yourself then!" Lily stood up to send her off
