Chapter 486 Meryl's Reflection

1/5

The bodyguard nodded and carefully left with the box in hand.

Meryl stood alone on the rooftop terrace of the hotel, enjoying the breeze for a while. The hotel was located on the busiest street in Kingsdom, surrounded by tall buildings. She casually leaned her hands on the railing.

From the excellent vantage point, it felt as if the entire city was at her feet.

The night view of Kingsdom was beautiful, with thousands of lights now illuminated.

The twinkling lights, like stars, outlined the city's dazzling colors. The distant traffic was faintly visible, converging into several straight lines.

It was already late at night, but the city was still so lively. People seemed tireless, with laughter and joy filling the air.

Yet, in the crowd, Meryl felt as if she was the only one left in the world.

Why was she suddenly feeling so melancholic?

A strong sense of loneliness swept over her, piercing through her body and locking her in its grip.

She suddenly missed the time she spent in the countryside.

Although Camille didn't like girls and only paid attention to Rocky, treating Meryl not so well, at least she didn't have to deal with too many things every day.

After Camille finished her farm work in the morning, she would go to the village's chess and card room in the afternoon. Meryl's adoptive father passed away carly, and Rocky was unemployed and never home. So, Meryl spent most of her time alone.

When she was just over a year old and could speak, she began learning about various herbs from a doctor, Michael, next door.

Their village was filled with all kinds of herbs.

Perhaps due to the influence during her infancy, Meryl was able to distinguish all types of herbs and accurately name them by the age of six.

Childhood days seemed to pass by very slowly. By the age of twelve, Meryl was already familiar with human anatomy and began learning medical skills and medical acupuncture from Michael.

Thanks to her solid foundation, later, when Michael was unwell and unable to see patients, Meryl would help him treat patients. with acupuncture.

Back then, treating a patient could make her happy for the whole day. That sense of achievement was really satisfying.

learning to-read, she would flip through medical books, treating medical skills as storybooks.

Michael would tell her about his experiences when he was

young. Those anecdotes were mostly his personal experiences during his medical practice.

For her, it was another world.

At 14, Meryl was found and taken back by the Stone family.

Her material life did indeed improve, but she was not happy during her years with the Stone family.

Her parents were nice to her at first, but Lydia always found ways to attract their attention.

For example, when both of them were startled by a sudden cockroach, Lydia was always the one who cried out loud.

Even when she had acne during her teenage years, Lydia would always throw herself into Bianca's arms, telling her how painful. and uncomfortable it was. The child who cried would get more love.

Gradually, Malcolm and Bianca paid more attention to Lydia.

Meryl was naturally not competitive.

She would always step back. Over time, no matter what happened, they would naturally satisfy Lydia's needs first.

Lydia could act cute and please them.

However, Meryl was actually not familiar with Malcolm and

Bianca.

Yes, they were not familiar.

In the beginning, being in the same space with them even made Meryl feel awkward.

So how could she get close to them?

That was how their relationship had gradually deteriorated. The affected Lydia took away all the love from the biased parents.

Even when Meryl was ostracized by her classmates at the exclusive school, she had no one to confide in...

At that time, only Dalton reached out to her.

He kicked open the restroom door and rescued her.

In the eyes of a teenager, Dalton was the light of her whole world.

At least, in the first one or two years, Dalton was good to her.

His protection allowed her to live a normal life at school.

But later... Dalton changed his mind.

And now...

Meryl looked up at the sky. Perhaps because the city was too. bright, there wasn't a single star in the sky.
