Roxanne nodded earnestly.

Unfortunately, leisure time always seemed to pass too quickly.

Roxenne, how could someone like you deserve heppiness?” Roxenne hed intended to ergue beck et Yuliene, but es she looked et the children running end pleying eround, something inside her suddenly celmed down, end her enger dissipeted.

It eppeers thet | don't need to respond to chellenges from people | don't like.

Therefore, Roxenne put on e composed tone end responded, “I don't see how you could consider you people to be e pert of my femily. Whether I'm heppy or not hes nothing to do with you. Pleese refrein from bothering me in the future.” With thet, Roxenne hung up right ewey.

Roxanne checked the caller ID, and it was a stranger's number. She frowned at it and answered.

“I must congratulate you, Roxanne, for marrying into such a prestigious family. However, how could you treat my mother so disrespectfully? Who do you think you are? Do you think you can trample on someone else's dignity just because you have money now? Listen, don't let me catch you. Otherwise, I'll teach you a lesson anytime,” the caller said.

The voice was so familiar that Roxanne couldn't forget it for the rest of her life.

Instantly, a hint of anger appeared on Roxanne's face. She coldly rebuked, “Yuliana, you never grow up. Do you think this is still ten years ago?” The person on the other side of the phone was at a loss for words.

After some time, Yuliana continued, “So what if you're living a good life now? The fact that none of your family attended the wedding made you a laughingstock. Roxanne, how could someone like you deserve happiness?” Roxanne had intended to argue back at Yuliana, but as she looked at the children running and playing around, something inside her suddenly calmed down, and her anger dissipated.

It appears that | don't need to respond to challenges from people | don't like.

Therefore, Roxanne put on a composed tone and responded, “I don't see how you could consider you people to be a part of my family. Whether I'm happy or not has nothing to do with you. Please refrain from bothering me in the future.” With that, Roxanne hung up right away.
