Though Christopher and Rosalie wanted to hear more, they had already returned with the group.
Although it was umon for everyone to gather for breakfast, when there were many people, they
would typically head over to eat. However, when there were fewer people, like when it was only
Isabe, someone would specifically bring a meal tray over to her. This saved her the trouble of
having to go there herself.
As soon as they entered, the people speaking inside naturally fell silent.
“Heidi, is that you?” Upon spotting Heidi, Tabitha immediately ran over, her excitement palpable, and
enveloped Heidi in a warm embrace.
Yet, Heidi responded to this embrace with considerable stiffness.
Petra, standing off to the side, appeared distinctly ufortable, even showing signs of resistance
on her face. This only served to lower Christopher and Rosalie’s opinion of her even further.
Seriously, is she so disdainful of her own daughter?
After hearing the gossip and then looking at the girl’s attire in front of them, it was almost
embarrassingly clear. This gave Christopher and Rosalie a deeper understanding of the kind of life
Heidi was leading.
Uponparison, the families of their household staff were all living quitefortably.
From this, it was evident that Petra hadn’t given the girl a single extra penny.
Truly… it was difficult to even pinpoint where to start with the disgust.
If someone like her had emerged in the past, it would have been considered an unprecedented
spectacle, But now, having encountered such a vast array of human types, it no longer seemed that
strange to the Quirks.
Surreptitiously rolling their eyes, they didn’t say anything. After all, it wouldn’t be right to have the
woman fired just because they were personally displeased with her. Petra had been taking care of
Hansel’s family for years. Moreover, from the perspective of the Quirk family, she had always been
dutiful and loyal.
If she were to be fired, chances were, things might get even worse for Heidi.
Christopher and Rosalie exchanged nces, acknowledging Isabe, who was descending the
stairs, with a casual greeting. One of them asked her what she felt like eating, while the other was
about to call a housekeeper over for assistance, not wanting to bother with Petra anymore.
Watching Isabe descend, Petra felt somewhat uneasy. She stole a nce, likely fearful that
Isabe might have overheard something.
Isabe’s thinking was simr to that of Christopher and Rosalie. There were too many people in the
world who had unfortunate lives. She wasn’t the type to meddle in others‘ lives, unless they were
part of her inner circle. As for everyone else, their fate was their own to deal with.
However, Isabe figured that if Heidi were to tell Tabitha the truth, Tabitha would undoubtedly lend
a hand. She was just that type of person, always ready to help without any hesitation.

Tabitha led Heidi back to her room, presented thetter with a gift, and then they began reminiscing
about old times.
All the while, Heidi kept a smile on her face as she talked with Tabitha.
Suddenly, Tabitha asked, “Heidi, I heard that you’ve stopped studying. Why is that?”
Heidi’s expression subtly shifted, yet she seized the opportunity to lodge aint.
As expected, Tabitha’s expression drastically changed. “How could that be? Is there still a chance to
resume your studies? Can you go back to school? If you need help, I can assist you,” she offered.
In reality, Heidi was waiting for these words. Her mother wouldn’t give her money, but the person in
front of her would. Therefore, her first thought was to meet Tabitha.

After all, Tabitha was just that kind of overly nice person.
However, at that moment, Heidi was feeling extremely ufortable inside, especially when she
thought about the things her mother usually said.
Petra often praised Tabitha at home with a smile. Thepliments Tabitha received were countless
times more than the praises Heidi would normally get.
Petra also oftenpared Heidi unfavorably to Tabitha, always saying how Heidi could never quite
live up to her.
Nheless, Heidi felt that had she been born into the Quirk family, she would have surely
outshone Tabitha. To her, Tabitha’s only talent was being born into privilege.
Hence, the bond they shared in their childhood was long gone, gradually morphing into jealousy.
Heidi couldn’t help but wonder why her mother favored Tabitha more. Why, despite Tabitha having
so much already, she still had to steal Petra’s attention and affection. Although Heidi knew that
these grievances were not really rted to Tabitha herself, she could not help but feel this way. She
even wished that Tabitha would disappear forever, never to be part of their lives again. That was
why she had deliberately ceased contact during middle school.
However, when she needed help, Tabitha was the only one she could think of.
She felt as though Tabitha was a lofty princess, bestowing favors upon her, while she was nothing
more than a begging pauper. Looking at Tabitha’s smile, she even found it insincere, as if the other
was merely using her assistance to showcase her kindness and nobility.
