Chapter 424 Confusion And Loneliness


    Gerda was upstairs at the moment. She had a lot to eat today, so she was running on the treadmill


    in the gym, trying to feel less guilty.


    While she was running, she noticed J rushing out of the stairwell with streaks of tears on her


    face.


    "Lind? What were you doinging out of the stairwell?" Even though Gerda was normally a jovial


    person, she could tell that J was in a sour mood.


    Upon seeing the worry on Gerda''s face, J felt even more dispirited.


    She threw herself into Gerda''s arms and sniffled.


    "Just don''t ask me anything, okay?"


    She had buried her face in Gerda''s hair.


    And so, Gerda just caressed J''s back in silence. When she felt that thetter was shivering, she


    felt really sorry for her. But at the same time, she was furious.


    "Who did this to you?" Gerda was filled with righteous indignation. She was just about ready to roll


    up her sleeves and smack somebody on the back of their heads.


    J shook her head, adjusted her mood, and smiled at Gerda. "It''s okay, Gerda. I''m feeling a lot


    better now. There''s no need for that."


    She then pursed her lips and added, "Whenever something happens, you don''t have to worry about


    defending other people right away. At times, you just need to think more about yourself."


    J''s words left Gerda speechless.


    What does she mean by that? She sounds like she''s nning on leaving. Gerda was confused.


    The second the elevator arrived, J entered it right away.


    She was lost in thought. And the more she thought of what Charis said to her, the more she felt


    Charis was right. There was indeed a great difference in social standing between her and Ethan.


    J used to be the Lind family''s adopted daughter. Even though the Lind family wasn''t that


    influential or wealthy, it still had its ownpany. But now, she had lost this identity as well after she


    disowned her family. It wouldn''t be an exaggeration to say that she was now a woman without a


    family. All she was, was an ordinary employee. Compared to a guy like Brandon, the billionaire CEO


    of Larson Group, she was nothing.


    Ever since they met, Ethan had been helping her with all sorts of problems, but not once had she


    helped him back.


    Only a wealthy nobledy like Charis deserved a man like Ethan. Charis was capable, strong, and


    she had been working with him since they were young. Their rtionship was iparable to all


    others.


    When the thought crossed J''s mind, she felt even more upset and self-abased.


    As much as it pained her to self-deprecate, she had to admit that this was the truth. In every aspect,


    she was inferior to Charis.


    It was no wonder that Ethan had hidden his true identity as Brandon Larson from her. She was


    qualified to be Ethan''s wife, but she wasn''t good enough to be Brandon Larson''s wife.

    J walked out of the Larson Group building in a daze.


    She''d rather not work for thepany anymore. Just seeing Charis would remind her of what the


    latter said to her.


    It was clear to her that she wasn''t good enough topete with Charis.


    "Where am I supposed to go now? To the vi?" Sadly, that was also where Ethan lived. If she


    wanted to move out, he''d certainly try to stop her.


    J was uncertain of what to do next. As she looked around the bustling city, she didn''t know


    where she should go.


    The world was vast, and yet she had no home.


    Never had she felt this lonely before.
