Lesley waited a few minutes for Avery to calm down before she spoke again. The woman's eyes were overflowing with tears after releasing all the grievances she had for her; she could not help but feel sorry.

"Do you know what kind of life I had before I met Kieran?" she suddenly asked.

Avery looked at her for a second before rolling her eyes.

"I don't know. Why should I care?" the woman answered gruffly.

Lesley didn't pay any attention to Avery's attitude and way of answering. She has a lot of patience now, especially after understanding why Avery was hostile toward her. She realized nothing good would happen if both of them remained angry with each other. They are on the same side, and Victor and MNA are the enemies, not each other.

She took a deep breath before speaking again.

"Since I was a child, I have not felt the love of a real parent. I am always thirsty for my mother's attention," she said.
