Chapter 760

I nodded and looked at her. "You're right."

"People will instinctively save themselves, so they'll leave a way out for themselves at any time. Therefore, I hope you'll leave a way out for yourself as well."

I stared at her quietly for a moment and asked, "Have you left yourself a way out, then?"

She froze, not expecting me to ask such a question.

She came back to her senses and let out a bitter chuckle. "Sure enough, a person will never get a clear view of her own affairs yet is always able to get a clear picture of other people's affairs."

"You love Tyler," I said with a smile.

Regardless of Susan's origin and what bad influence it would bring to Tyler, I hoped they could form a family.

Perhaps it was because we were both women and mothers, so I did not want her to be separated from her child.

Susan did not speak, which meant she had quietly admitted to it.

I gently sighed and said no more.

She let out a forlorn smile at me. "I’m beyond blessed t o have the opportunity to give him a child. I'm not

qualified to ask for anything else."

I frowned, a little unhappy. "Why are you belittling yourself like this? Regardless of what your birth origin is, you’ve given him a child, so the Schumans should give you a place in the family. If you

don't fight for what’s yours, you may never have the chance to meet this child once they’re born. Will you not feel wounded inside?"

"I will." She chuckled bitterly. "But I have no choice.”

After a pause, she continued, "I’m not like you. If only I had an ordinary birth origin, even if I was an orphan... I f only I had grown up in an uncorrupted environment and wasn’t a lowly person. If only I hadn't... resorted to underhanded means...”

I froze after hearing what she said.

What did she mean by underhanded means?

Susan sat on the swing chair at the entrance of the restaurant and looked up at me with a helpless expression on her face. "I'm not from this country. I was born in a slum where bellies were never filled, laws were not followed, and people would do anything to survive. My mother lived in a different man's house every day, willing to do anything as long as they paid her. That included harming someone.”

This opened up to a completely new dark world. I felt a little shocked and sat down beside her while holding her hand.

She smiled at me. It was hard to see any negative

emotions on her face. "As for my father, he’s also a scumbag and an advocate for violence. But thanks to him, I learned that I should not continue to stay weak o r I'll only go down the same route as my mother."

Her countenance was calm when she said these things, it was as though she was recounting someone else’s story.

I had no way of picturing what she had experienced, hence I did not know what to say for a moment.

Susan stroked her belly and said with a smile," Thankfully, my child can grow up in a clean environment. God has been generous enough to me."

At this point, I finally understood why Susan was not fighting for anything.

She felt that a person like her was not worthy to even live in the first place.

There was a slight stifling sensation in my chest, and I held her hand tightly, saying, "You can't decide your birth origin. Maybe Carlson wouldn't even mind your birth origin. I still think you should try and fight for it."

"Thank you, I appreciate you looking out for me."

She let out a faint smile, and her voice was gentle." Even if the Schumans accept me, I won't marry Tyler either. He deserves a better woman."

Her words made me silent.

It was hard to change a person's mind easily. Besides, I could only advise her on this matter but not

intervene.

We had been out long enough, so I said, "Let's go back o r they'll come looking for us."

We walked into the restaurant. When we went up the second floor and went around a corner, a woman's delicate voice rang in my ears.
