Ch. 97 Other Races

Aria never knew the reason behind Madam Chavau's mistreatment of her. The woman had never hurt her verbally, but the older woman had hurt her feelings and tortured her mentally.

Surprisingly… every word that compared Aria to her two daughters or sometimes refused to acknowledge her as a householder, Aria found herself unable to keep falling and desired to prove that she was not worthy of being belittled.

And she also remembered that Mrs. Chavau had never forbidden her to go out with Quinn but had often prevented her from going out with her male or elven friends.

Aria thought Mrs. Chavau didn't want her to find a better husband-to-be than her two daughters. But when she looked back, her male friends who had once asked her out were deviant kids who liked to badmouth her behind her back.

All this time, Mrs. Chavau and her husband had protected her without her knowledge. Maybe Aria couldn't remember the others because Mr. Chavau trampled her memory.
