She actually has severe autism. In other words, she is mentally disabled.
"I was in the same middle school as her. At that time, other classmates would call her 'dumb' and 'idiot' behind her back. She also quit her tertiary studies halfway because of her condition." "No wonder I've always felt that there
Wr 719 BONUS was something strange about her every time I met her, Despite being 21... or is it 222 Her mind is still like a child's.
Turns out that it's because of her mental problem! "As expected, Sophia's offspring is indeed problematic! Even though she died, she still left her retarded daughter to wreck my precious grandson!"

Watch your health!" "Landon... Does he know about that woman's condition?"
- VY SIZ "Landon is well aware." Cornelius became even more enraged.

Isn't he afraid that their children would also be mentally impaired? "Ireally don't understand it. As my grandson, he can have any woman he likes. Why is he so fixated on a dumbo?" "Landon is being tricked by Lauren's naivete. He has had so much fun with glamorous women in the past that he's now unable to stop himself after getting a taste of something plain," Zoe remarked in a scornful tone.
Cornelius' eyes became bloodshot from fury. He hit his palms against the

Let me find time to speak with her face to face." When Zoe spoke, her voice was gentle and the look on her face was kind. "I'll tell her how I feel and reason with her.
