Translator: 549690339

There were very few people in the coffee shop in the morning, scattered across a few tables.

Enna Clark ordered coffee at the bar, paid for her own cup, and sat down in a corner seat with her coffee in hand.

William Sullivan followed closely and sat across from her.

Money for groceries was already tight, and yet she spent 4-5 dollars on coffee. The expense made Enna wince. Adhering to the principle that waste was a disgrace, though she had no appetite, she still took a sip of the hot coffee.

She had to say, the taste of the coffee was simply horrible. She seriously questioned whether instant coffee powder from a supermarket, which only cost 0.15 dollars per pack, would taste better!

But the money had been spent, no matter how terrible the taste was, she had to bear it and drank almost half of it. After finishing, she put down her cup, broke the silence and asked, “Mr. Sullivan, what brings you to me?”

William felt an unexpected clutch in his heart and unconsciously clenched his hands on both sides.

When did it start that he needed a reason to seek her out?

Fighting to contain his emotions, he stared steadily at the person across from him, his voice hoarse as he said, “Enna, how have you been these past few years?”

Enna looked at him in surprise, not expecting this question from him. After a moment of silence, she suddenly curled her lips into a smirk and replied mockingly, ‘Mr. Sullivan, what kind of answer do you want to hear from me?

That I’ve been doing well over the years?”

Before he could answer, Enna stared into his eyes, word by word, “I’m sorry to disappoint you. I’ve been doing poorly, very poorly. Five years ago, my grandpa suddenly had a heart attack and needed money urgently. I thought of asking you for help. But a major surgery costs a significant amount of money, and I, being an illegitimate daughter, already felt like I didn’t deserve you. If I involved money in our relationship as well, how could I face you, or your Uncle and Aunt in the future? I couldn’t ask you, and I couldn’t borrow money from Auntie May. So I had to work, at my busiest, I had to work three jobs a day, there was no time to see you, no time for classes, but the money was still not enough for my grandpa’s medical expenses…”

Enna casually told her story, as if it was somebody else’s, “Just as I was at a dead end, my ‘good friend’ introduced me to a part-time job. I worked as a waitress on a yacht where wealthy people had parties. While on the yacht, I was drugged by someone unknowingly and ended up having sex. Mr. Sullivan, do you know what despair feels like? I woke up on a stranger’s bed with my head completely blank. Torn by despair, the only person I could think of was you. But I only truly knew what despair was after I found you.”

She had stumbled her way to William, only to find him sleeping in her ‘good friend’s’ bed.

That moment, she truly realized what it meant to feel as if the sky was falling.

Baron Lawrence thought that she had ‘intentionally’ crawled onto his bed, and came to look for her. And later, she realized she was pregnant…

She knew what William wanted to hear, but why should she lie just because he wanted to hear it?

William’s face turned pale, his voice wavering, “I didn’t know… any of this.”

He didn’t know, all he knew was that during that time, Enna was frequently skipping classes and often unreachable. When he called her, she would usually hang up, and by the time she called back, it was usually very late and she always sounded tired. When he asked her what was wrong, she just hemmed and hawed and wouldn’t say.

Then Riley Allen came looking for him, showing him a picture of Enna entering a room with another man. He got drunk, and when he woke up, he was in bed with Riley..
