Love Is As Light As Water, And One Drowns In It For A Long TimeChapter 1

When she was ten years old, the Haynes Family was insolvent and went bankrupt overnight.

At that time, Beatrice fell in love with the young master of the Dolton Family, Harold, who stepped forward to save her.

She boldly pursued love, but he avoided her with various excuses.

“You want to fall in love with me, huh? Don’t you think you are qualified?”

Because of love, Beatrice accepted all the sarcasm.

But until another woman appeared beside Harold, she realized how stupid she was.

She saw with her own eyes that Harold could drive her away for that woman, spend a lot of money at a charity party to snatch things that should belong to her and even abandon her to save that woman’s life.

Later, Beatrice used the first pot of gold to pay the down payment for a small house in the city farthest from Linkon.

Before leaving, she returned the whistle and her love to Harold.

“I wish you happiness. We will never see each other again in this life.”

Later, she took the initiative to hold the hand of another man.

Harold was panicking. He realized belatedly that the little girl who had always loved him had gone far away.
