A sorrowful smile flashed across Doris's lips while her voice turned distant. "From the moment I've become sensible, my father told me that I'd have to work hard to fight for whatever I want. That way, I'd have it for much longer. What someone else gives you isn't yours. My mother is a classic example."

As Doris lowered her head to look at the shattered pieces on the ground, her eyes suddenly colored with a distant look. She would never have brought this up in front of anyone else, especially such unhappy things. She might not have even mentioned this to Gu Qiwu before.

"My mother's pure at heart. She's a very gentle and kind-hearted woman. My father loved her at first, and Mother was meticulous with her care for Father, but men's hearts aren't settled just because you're an understanding woman. Mother's too silly. She knew that Father had other women outside, yet she still compromised. She thought that if she compromised enough, she could get Father back."

At this, Doris took a deep breath and then smiled bitterly. "That scene only appears in fairy tales. Once a man has a change of heart, nothing can pull them back. Your tenderness and virtuousness will turn to weakness and cowardice. But Mother was still so foolish. She didn't know how to fight. With her status alone, it would've been so easy for her to get rid of those women! What makes me even more frustrated was that she told me not to blame Father and that I had to be understanding, and requite the bad with the good!

"How funny! She wanted me to talk about requiting the bad with the good with a bunch of lowly prostitutes? Do they deserve it? Those women who only think of how they can be a homewrecker. They should die a terrible death with no good outcome just like Mu Zi did years ago! It's a good thing she died earlier, and suffered a terrible death. Otherwise, I definitely wouldn't mind going against her!"

When Mu Zi was brought up, Doris's blue eyes could not help but flash with a hint of resentment.

"I can understand how you feel, but perhaps we didn't have to do those things after that. Mu Lingtian didn't know these back then. He was just a child of slightly over a year old, and Mu Lingshi was even..."

"Just a child? I could already feel something from the way Gu Qiwu treated him. So what if he was a child? When I was five, I already planned to disfigure one of my father's mistresses. After that, that mistress died of illness in the refugee hole. The summer when I was six, I planned for the lady that insulted my mother to fall into the lake and almost drowned her. If he had known that he was Gu Qiwu's son, would Shasha and I even have a place in the entire Gu family?"

While Doris spoke about this dark past without any expression, a distorted expression crossed her pale face. She had gone through so many such deceitful experiences, so right now, these things were actually quite normal. It was just what they called wins and losses.

"Shasha is like her grandmother. They are both weak women, but if any one of them were a little more competent, perhaps I wouldn't need to suffer so much trouble. Sadly, they won't listen. Apart from disappointing me, it's just more disappointment...Now that we are finally at this point, I should be used to it by now. Perhaps, all of this is just so-called fate."

Doris sighed a long sigh. She lifted a hand to massage the space between her brows, paused, and then looked up at Glenn. Her tone calmed down slightly while she said, "You've been by my side for many years. Now that Alex has fallen, and I'm also at this stage, leave. Don't stick with me anymore. I've still got two cheques for $10 million in the safe. You can keep one, and get the other one to Shasha. Just say that even though I'm disappointed, I still think of her as my daughter. I hope that she won't disappoint me anymore."
