Nia Mitchell never expected that Hazel Quartz would actually say such a thing.
She was aware of what had happened between herself and Hendry Hampton in the past.
But when invited to the engagement ceremony, she declined, saying she didn't have time.
Ha!
Perhaps by that time, she had already gotten what she wanted, and since Nia Mitchell had already resigned, naturally she had no use anymore.
She really had misjudged her.
In this world, being good to others doesn't mean they will treat you the same way.
"Hazel, what happened between Hendry and me is long in the past."
Moreover, Maxwell Peary knows about it.
He doesn't care about these things at all.
Furthermore, she had always protected herself well, and at most, she had only held hands with Hendry — they never even kissed.
She is very grateful for this fact.
"Being in the past doesn't erase who you once were. A woman who was rejected, what right does she have to gossip here?"
