She didn't respond to Michelle's words, instead, she changed the topic: "Do you know about Ye Che and Charlotte's engagement?"
"Did Alice tell you?" Michelle almost blurted out, and this reaction confirmed that he indeed knew about it, and it was true.
Xia Weiyi remained silent, taking it as a tacit agreement.
Michelle looked at his daughter, who appeared so aggrieved and despondent, his heart ached. He comforted and persuaded her, constantly assuring, "Yiyi, rest assured, I will never agree to Ye Che and Charlotte's engagement. Anything can be compromised, except your happiness..."
Michelle's words were full of confidence, but to Xia Weiyi, they were a huge mockery.
She wanted so much to laugh now, but as she tried to move the corners of her mouth, it was so stiff that even her muscles ached.
Her happiness... shattered the moment she heard Alice's recording...
Michelle's words were so firm, so pleasant to hear... He said he would never agree.
