NovelsBestSpeople felt that Helen would not make an appearance because they believed that the Schulz family would certainly pressure Helen in regards to this matter. In any case, they would never allow her to embarrass the Schulz family. 4 At the stime, speople felt that since Helen had already gone to Aurous Hill to visit Curtis's former residence, and since she had even registered to participate in this auction, based on her personality, even if someone were to threaten her, she would certainly show up for the auction. 5 Therefore, the people in Eastcliff even started placing bets on whether Helen would appear at the auction or not.

Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHelen was already ready. 3 She had already made up her mind that she would have to show up at this auction. So, even though the Schulz family had a very big opinion in regards to this matter, she was still determined to set off.
The pair of siblings, Jaand Sophie, were already standing by Helen's door early in the morning. As soon as Helen opened her room door, the pair of brother and sister immediately saw their mother, who was dressed very formally.
Jaimmediately felt very anxious, and he blurted out, "Mom! Are you really going to participate in that auction?" Helen nodded slightly and said, "I have already signed up for it. So, how could I possibly not attend the auction?" Sophie said anxiously, "Mom! You cannot attend the auction. My friend toldthat everyone in Eastcliff is paying close attention to you now. They said that if you are indeed going to attend the auction today, the Schulz family would certainly lose all of their face and reputation..." Helen said earnestly, "I am not the person who is going to determine the Schulz family's face and reputation. The Schulz family's face and reputation are determined entirely by the decisions and actions of the people from the Schulz family itself. Your grandfather and father's actions are the key people who would directly affect the face and reputation of the Schulz family." Sophie eagerly replied, "Mom, I understand what you mean. However, based on the current situation, the previous events that happened in the Schulz family are already completely irreparable. However, if you give up and choose not to participate in the auction this time, you will be able to help the Schulz family maintain sof their face and reputation..." Helen looked at Sophie before she spoke earnestly," Sophie, I have never cared about anyone's opinion of me, including their thoughts aboutin this matter. So, everyone can think however they want to, but you are the only person who cannot think badly of me. Do you know why?" 3 Sophie subconsciously shook her head.
After that, she asked, "Mom, why is that so?" Helen replied seriously, "The reason why everyone thinks that I should save the Schulz family's face and reputation is because they think that I am already a married woman. They feel that as a married woman, my priority should always be the interest of my husband and his family at all times." "Even if my husband cheated onand has a lover outside, I should not cause a huge scene over this matter. On the contrary, I have to put on an act to pretend that everything is fine and peaceful just so tha everyone will know that I always place my husband's face and reputation as the most important thing above all else. In their opinion, this is how women should generally behave." 4 "But in my opinion, this kind of woman is simply too pitiful! Why should I be wronged and suffer a grievance just to live according to other people's standards? Why should I be wronged and suffer a grievance just to please others? Do I really have to live that way just because I am a woman?" 3 As she spoke, Helen looked at Sophie as she said solemnly, "Sophie, I have never expected you to marry a wealthy or powerful husband. However, I only hope that you will be able to protect and defend your dignity and self-worth at all times. You should never end up becoming a woman that will have to lower yourself and betray your dignity just to live according to other people's standards. Otherwise, you will never be happy in this life!" 4 Sophie was stunned when she heard her mother's words at this moment.
She could not help but look at the resolute expression in her mother's eyes as she felt a strong and raging En.
