"Where are the kids?" Doris asked tossing a blueberry into her mouth.

"Hiram is picking them up," Nancy simply answered. Then, surveying her from head to foot, she asked, "Have you met your parents-in-law?"

"Yeah! I was so nervous! I finally understand how you felt when you met Charles' parents. Rich people are just too intimidating. I don't think I can ever live with them!" Doris shook her head aggressively as if recalling a nightmare that had frightened her to death.

"I agree," Nancy uttered, nodding with a smile.

"That's why I need time to think about my relationship with Jay." Doris sounded mellow as she spoke that. It was as though she was left with no choice. "Why did you..." she tried asking Nancy but paused upon realizing who was with her. Then Doris sneaked a glance at Charles and continued, "Why did you come with Charles? Where is Jerome? Do you break up with him?"

Nancy shook her head and replied with a pout, "I didn't want to come here! This man dragged me forcibly!"

"These bad men are too self-centered and never care about others' feelings! They are all too proud of their family background. Well, I have seen through them now. Their families are just like a bird's cage. Once we enter, we will be trapped for the rest of our lives! "

"You're lying. You say rich and powerful families are like birdcages, but it was your own choice

Nancy's embrace and muttered in horror, "Doctor Nancy, she's so violent!"

"Woman! How can you be a doctor and act like that?" The wealthy guests, who had been spectating, began to criticize Doris. All of them eyed her with so much disdain and discrimination as though the latter was a criminal.

And the unfortunate victim of their prejudice felt her whole body burning on fire. She was mad and pitied herself at the same time.

It was excruciating to be wronged and mistreated just because of her social status.

"What did you just say? I'm violent?" Doris snorted in disbelief while pointing at herself.

Still on the ground, Lucy nodded vigorously.

Her lips almost curled into a sly smile seeing as how her plan to humiliate Doris was sailing smoothly.

At the same time, the latter had to sit speechless from all the judgments she had received. And hoping to ease her fury, Doris munched on the blueberries like there was no tomorrow.

"Look at this woman! How could she eat like that?!" But then, no matter what she said or even did, these rich people would always have something to say against her.

And ultimately, Doris realized that she and Jay belonged to different worlds. Even if they loved each other, they would never be right together.

More than that, she could never fit in with the affluent families. There was no place for her in his world.
