Gloria looked at her daughter lovingly, and then she raised her hand to touch Sabrina's hair. "My child, I am not old. I am only in my early fifties. I have kept myself in quite a good condition, so I look like I'm forty-five at a glance. I have a nice figure, I can play the piano, and I can dance. You're right about all this. If I really wanted to get myself a boyfriend, with the level that your grandfather is trying to please me and also with the Shaw family's background, it shouldn't be a problem for me to find a good man."Sabrina smiled. "That's right, Mom. You don't need to worry. I'm guessing that the line of men who want to pursue you could reach the moon, and every one of them is elite. We'll have so many options that we can pick and choose from."Gloria shook her head, then she sighed. "But, my heart…had long been covered in holes."Sabrina was speechless."I've been living in misery since childhood. I had been abused by your grandfather, your uncle, and also your grandfa
Sabrina was even more puzzled when she heard what her mother said. "Mom, what are you talking about?"Gloria was very excited. "All of you have your own things to be busy with. Sebastian is busy with his company's matters every day. You're busy with your designs every day. Even the little thing, Aino, is all grown up now. She doesn't even play with you anymore, let alone me. I usually seem like I'm quite busy on my own. I play the piano and I also dance. However, I've always been very energetic. I wanted to find a job, but nobody wanted to hire me. I can only go to the senior city dance group to kill time. Luckily, the dance group has performances very often, so my life was also more enriched. I met James during one of the times when I went out with the senior citizen dance group to perform. Do you know how he addressed me when I first met him?" Gloria asked Sabrina as she spoke of that.When Sabrina heard that her mother said that she was helping the police on a case, she felt surpr
She had been drifting for half of her lifetime, and she had always felt that she was worthless. It was until that man named James Dunn had approached her. Only a few people knew that Gloria did not like sweet talks, and deep down, she actually also disliked men taking the initiative to talk to her. That was because Gloria was hurt by her father, brother, and her first husband, Lincoln, growing up. She had been badly scarred by them.It was not until Gloria had met her second husband, who was honest and a man of a few words, that Gloria finally had a foothold in her life and she got a sense of security. That lasted until her husband passed away. The man that Gloria had deeply loved had always been her second husband, who was that honest and simple man who spoke very little. Even though her husband had passed away, Gloria had never taken a look at those glamorous, powerful, and sweet-talking men. Not because of anything else, but simply because she felt disgusted by these men in her hea
After she arrived at the nearest police station, she told the police officer about the situation in detail. When she was done, she even said while feeling slightly sorry, "Actually, I can't be sure that he is a scammer who specializes in tricking women who live alone. I have no evidence as well. I am just going with my instinct. Also, some of his actions made me feel that we should take precautions. Don't blame me If I've made the wrong judgment. I mean no harm. I just wanted to let many women who live alone like me and those women who are rather lonely in life be more cautious. I apologize in advance if I've misjudged him and he did not have ulterior motives like I think he did. As for how you're going to investigate him, that's your business."Gloria was incredibly sincere and honest when she said that. After that, she was going to get up and leave. However, she did not expect that the police officer in charge of entertaining her would get up, shake her hand, and say to her, "Madam,
Gloria, however, volunteered and insisted that she had to work with the police to do something meaningful. She was very excited, and she also had a sense that this was a noble thing to do. After all, at her age, being able to do something that could give her a great sense of accomplishment and help many people would make her feel that she had not lived her life in vain.Ultimately, it was still because the first half of her life had been too rough, and then she met a scum like Lincoln again, later on. Not only did Lincoln ruin her, but he also caused her daughter to live a miserable life before she turned twenty-five and was also imprisoned. Therefore, Gloria hated such scums. Once she encountered such scum again, she had to go all out to punish him severely!After Gloria repeatedly begged the police, they agreed. The police officer said to Gloria, "Madam, we will secretly protect your safety at all times. You also have to be careful. If there are any dangers, do not get involved. Yo
Gloria deliberately switched off her phone. She had already figured that since James was able to find out about her name, he certainly would be able to find out about his family background. If he was able to find out about her family background, then he certainly would be able to know her phone number as well. She simply wanted to ignore James for a while.That day when James did not manage to reach Gloria through her phone, he was actually very annoyed. At the same time, he was also a little disheartened. He originally thought that an old lady like Gloria who had no men by her side and had never been cared for since childhood would enjoy it very much when a man finally hit on her. However, he never expected that Gloria would actually switch off her phone. James had a feeling that he was unable to control this woman. He felt agitated and he kept pacing back and forth outside of the place where the senior citizen dance group was practicing. In the end, he only left after he no longer w
"However, women above thirty-five are different. Women nowadays generally take great care of themselves, so women who are thirty-five look like they are just in their twenties. Some of them who are forty-five even seem like they are in their early thirties. Plenty of them have long flowing hair and great figures. That is the reason why our company has decided to design clothes for women from age thirty-five to fifty-five. They have great spending power and they have excellent taste. Once a woman reaches this age, their taste will naturally get better. Many experts studying women nowadays say that a woman should be most beautiful in the twenty years between the age of thirty-five to fifty-five. I originally did not believe this statement. However, I finally believed it the moment I saw you. To be honest with you, Miss Shaw, I had been paying attention to you in secret for a long time before I went up to greet you for the first time yesterday. Why have I been paying attention to you? Don
When Sabrina heard Gloria saying that, she immediately cut her off. "Mom, you were sick?"Gloria teared up. "Mom, why didn't you tell me that you were sick and was hospitalized? If you hadn't told me today, I wouldn't have known!" She angrily complained to her mother.Her mother smiled, and her smile was very kind. "Silly girl, I was truly sick, I would definitely tell you, wouldn't I? I have always been in very good health. I have done loads of hard work in the field in my day. My body was very strong. Later on, I was locked up in the basement by Lincoln. After that, I escaped from there and I ran around this city every day to find you, which was equivalent to training my body."All these years, some people got headaches and fevers, some needed intravenous therapy, and some even had coughs and bronchitis, but I've gotten any of those. I would watch a cold too, but I basically always get over it in a day. Later on, I found you, and my life got better. My daily routines were very nor
