Letting Go of That Emotion (Extra Story)

"Cousin, Grandma Carter was just speaking nonsense in a moment of excitement…" Isla ran over, but Aurora gently held her hand.

 

"Cousin, thank you… but you don't need to say anything. I know exactly what kind of person she is, so there's no need to comfort me. Besides, I've long since gotten used to it."

 

Used to being disliked by Mrs. Wilson, used to being neglected by her biological father. But for Aurora, her parents were both gone now. All she had left was her younger brother. Mrs. Wilson's sharp words—she had grown accustomed to them too. And yet, she was still able to live on just fine.

 

Isla pouted. "I really don't get it. With Grandma Carter being like this… how did she manage to give birth to such a gentle daughter?"

 

She was naturally referring to Aurora's aunt. Aurora chuckled lightly, unwilling to comment.
