Chapter 2010 Great Courage
Andrius knew who that man was right away.
That was the biological father that Mary never wanted to speak of. He abandoned his wife and daughter and chose
to marry for profit.
"His name is Dorian Claymore, the chairman of Northwest Claymore Group. You should have heard of him. After all,
he can be considered a prominent figure in the business world! But he's just a piece of trash to me!"
Mary gritted her teeth, her eyes turning red with hatred.
The one who came with Dorian was Shaylene, the eldest daughter of the Lambert family who was a tyrant with her
influence.
After learning that Mary was born, Shaylene considered Mary an illegitimate daughter-a disaster.
For this reason, Mary was unable to grow up normally. Her normal schooling channels were all controlled by

Furthermore, Shaylene often brought her two precious daughters to their home to bully Mary and her mother. She
would come to their house from time to time to beat them
up-
When Mary was still very young, Dorian appeared several times and gave them money.
However, as time passed, he was forcibly taken away by Shaylene.
Fortunately, Mary had always been strong and stubborn.
Her mother used the money she earned from manual labor to support her education. When Mary was in high
school, she began to do odd jobs to earn her tuition fees.
Camelia did not want Mary to be continuously disturbed in university, so she resolutely sent Mary to take the
university entrance exam in Coast City, away from the Northwest.
However, tortured in spirit for many years, Camelia eventually became sick from worry, and her health
deteriorated.
Dorian never showed up.
It was Mary who took her to Coast City, and Rosalie saved her life.
Andrius had heard of Dorian's name.
This man was a prominent figure. He was able to achieve a huge scale of business in an environment like the
Northwest and was considered to be among the top ten in Somerland.
However, Andrius was completely unfazed by his business methods.
They were bordering on barbaric, and many of his operations were shady.
"Why did you take my mother away by force? Dorian Claymore and Shaylene Lambert, we’ve already kept our
distance and avoided you for so long. Why won’t you stay away?" Mary shouted angrily.
After her anger passed, she became helpless.
Andrius' face darkened severely. He reached out to hold Mary’s hand, pulled her into his arms, and hugged her

He gently patted her on the back and comforted her. "Don't be afraid, I’m here. I’m here now! You won't be bullied,
and neither will Aunt Wilson!"
His voice was gentle and deep, slowly guiding Mary to release her emotions.
Grievances and sorrows had already accumulated in Mary's heavy heart for an unknown number of years. In an
instant, the floodgates opened like a broken dam.
Her tears gushed down relentlessly. She hugged Andrius tightly and burst into tears without restraint.
"It's okay. She’ll be okay. With me here, I can sort this out for sure. Even if he is Dorian Claymore, I’m not afraid!
Nobody is allowed to bully you no matter who they are because you're my most beloved!"
Andrius babbled to soothe her emotions, and every word warmed her heart.
Her tears finally stopped, and her mood gradually calmed down.
'It’s wonderful to have him!'
Mary suddenly felt a burst of courage.
"He’ll call me for sure. He took my mother away by force to make me do something." She regained her rationale.
Andrius nodded. "So we don’t need to worry now. Let’s just wait for him to call."
