Chapter 519 You Are My Woman (Seventeen)

• "I remember you asked me before, do I hate him? I told you, I hate him, I hate him so much I wanted to kill him. We were college classmates, in the same class, he was my first love. We were together for many years. After graduating from college, we both stayed in the city of Millsborough to make a living. We went through the poorest period of our lives together. At that time, we had just graduated, neither of us had passed the bar exam yet, and we couldn't find a job. We had to work as assistants at a law firm, basically doing odd jobs like copying documents. The salary was pitifully low. In the city of Millsborough, where land is scarce and prices are soaring, that salary was barely enough for the two of us to survive. I remember at that time, we rented a small single room, separated by wooden boards, with just a wooden board separating us from the next room. We could hear the snoring from the other room, and the house was so small, only about ten square meters. Besides a bed, there was hardly any space left, and no bathroom. The environment was actually worse than the basement you used to live in. He and I spent three whole years in such an environment, and those three years were very difficult, extremely difficult. We couldn't even afford to eat. During those three years, we both worked hard to pass the bar exam, from assistants to intern lawyers to finally becoming official lawyers. Our lives gradually improved, and we began to find our place and foothold in this city," Samantha Wembley slowly recalled.
