Chapter 2393
Marshall's love affair eventually came to the attention of the Moore family. They didn't accept a woman without a background as their daughter-in-law but had their own subtle ways of expressing it. They didn't openly object but sent an invitation letter, sincerely inviting Willow to attend the old man Moore's birthday party.
They sent clothes and jewelry, appearing to value Willow greatly. Even Marshall was surprised. They were too young to realize that this was a trap. They believed the elders of the Moore family genuinely accepted their relationship.
Willow wore the clothes and jewelry provided by the Moore family and attended the banquet with Marshall.
However, the lavish banquet wasn't something one could blend into just by wearing expensive clothes. It was a spiritual humiliation, without overt conflict, but with subtle crushing and contempt from all aspects of origin, vision, and knowledge.
Willow, proud of her achievements, had worked her way up from a small town to the bustling metropolis of Rivera. She always believed in her potential for limitless future success.
But she could never have imagined that her hard-won achievements were insignificant to these people. She was even a joke and a topic of gossip.
She could accept material differences because she was young and willing to work hard, with a promising future ahead. But the spiritual and worldview differences were something she couldn't reconcile.
After the banquet, Willow calmly reevaluated her relationship with Marshall.
She was actually more rational than Marshall. If she saw it wasn't suitable, she would end the relationship in time. No matter how much she loved him, she wouldn't lose her self-respect.
But Marshall couldn't do that. He had been obedient to his family for years, never experiencing a rebellious phase. When he finally fell in love, he was stubborn and persistent, unwilling to let go.
At that time, Keegan already felt the two weren't compatible.
Willow wasn't a girl who indulged in love. Compared to Marshall, she had a clear plan for her future. Marshall didn't have the ability to defy his family then, but he still tried to keep her by his side, which was bound to fail.
Keegan predicted they would eventually break up but didn't expect Willow to disappear first. Then, someone with a clear plan for the future abandoned her imminent degree.
He had never understood why, but learning about this now clarified some doubts.
Willow was assaulted but didn't tell Marshall. Her reasons were unknown to outsiders, but she must have had her reasons.
She was polite to everyone but smashed her portrait at Kaia's funeral. Perhaps her spiritual world was on the brink of collapse at that time. When someone is easily broken, no matter what they do, it's beyond reproach.
Stella felt deeply uncomfortable. She hadn't expected such a tragic story.
"Back then, Willow collected evidence and immediately called the police. Why wasn't a case filed? Why was it suppressed so effectively? You didn't know about this?"
Stella couldn't believe no one was involved.
Keegan couldn't believe it either. He pondered and finally thought of the Moore family.
