Finally, after ensuring that Alice was comfortable around her again, Edeline decided that the time was right.
One afternoon, she deliberately lowered her gaze and sighed. "I am truly living a difficult life."
Alice immediately became concerned. "What happened? Did you encounter some kind of problem?"
Edeline hesitated before looking at her with a helpless expression.
"I cannot hide things from you. You are my best friend, so I should be honest with you. Recently, my daughter was scammed by a woman."
Alice frowned. "What happened?"
Edeline quickly continued.
"There was another girl involved. She had a boyfriend, and that boyfriend was constantly pestering my daughter. When my daughter rejected him, he could not accept it and decided to have my daughter put behind bars."
Alice's brows furrowed. "That sounds serious."
Edeline nodded sadly.
