Chapter 172

On the envelope, it was written "To Dear Lumma".

Lumma opened it and found a letter from Keeley.

''Lumma, I am so glad to have met you as a friend!

I am grateful for the strength you gave me when I needed it most to keep on living.

From now on, I will live well and never do anything stupid again.

But George is a very paranoid and controlling person. He will never easily let me go. If I want to get rid of him completely, I can only go to a place he doesn't know about.

I know you will probably tell me that Mr. Hills can protect me, but relying on others is never a long-term solution.

As a child, I relied on my family, and as an adult, I relied on George just to survive, living a life worse than a dog's.

From now on, I don't want to rely on anyone else to live my life. I want to follow my heart and live the life I want.
