Gwendolyn had looked it up on the internet last night. However, there were too many types of self-

defense tools to choose from. Also, she did not know whether those tools would work. Moreover, she

was so poor now that she did not want to waste her money.

Thus, if Lucy knew anything about those tools, she could just share them with Gwendolyn.

Meanwhile, Lucy was enjoying the dishes made by Camille. Since Melanie's condition had been pretty

serious recently, Lucy could not leave the hospital. Hence, she had been eating takeout for several

months now. In fact, she had been eating so much takeout that she would puke if she had another such

meal.

She looked very haggard. After working in Night City until four o'clock at night, she still had to go to the

hospital to change shifts with the caregiver at seven o'clock. Therefore, she slept very little, and her

mental state was not very good these days.

Lucy ate a piece of pork and smiled.

“Why are you suddenly thinking of buying self-defense tools? Did anyone bully you?”

Lucy was a clever woman. Being someone who had lots of life experiences, she caught on fast

enough.

Hearing her question, Gwendolyn was a little nervous. If she told her that Patrick had forcefully kissed

her last night and almost slept with her, Lucy would definitely tell her that it was a good thing and that

she did not need to guard against him.

Gwendolyn took a sip of water, trying to suppress the awkwardness she was feeling.

“It's just that I'm going to have a part-time job at night these days. So, I'm afraid of meeting bad people.

I'll feel a little bit more secure if I have a self-defense tool with me.”

Lucy nodded slightly. “You're right. After I finish eating, I'll bring you to a store where you can shop for

what you need. Everything in that store is quite practical.”

Gwendolyn was planning to buy those tools on the internet. However, after Lucy said that there was a

physical store, Gwendolyn felt that it was even better, as the quality would be more guaranteed.

After Lucy finished eating, they left the four children to Camille. Gwendolyn was not worried since

Justin and Julian were there.

Those two boys were very obedient and would take good care of Juliette and Melanie.

After that, the two went to the store, which was not far from the pediatric hospital. It only took over ten

minutes to walk there.

Lucy knew about Gwendolyn's situation. She knew that Gwendolyn's heart ached every time she

drove. Therefore, Lucy did not propose that they took the car.

The two walked on the street in the winter as the warm sunlight shone upon them.

Lucy's hand was hooked around Gwendolyn's arm. She took a deep breath and smiled.

“It's been a long time since I stood under the sun. I really hope Melanie can get better soon. When that

happens, I think my life will start to have hope.”

After experiencing such a hardship, Lucy felt that possibly nothing else could ever bring her down

anymore.

Hearing that, Gwendolyn rubbed Lucy's arm compassionately. “It's all my fault for being too poor. I

couldn't help you at all.”

“It's even more difficult for you. You have to raise three children. It's already difficult enough for me just

to raise one. It's much worse for you. Gwen, it's enough to have you by my side. Do you understand?”

asked Lucy as she touched Gwendolyn's face lightly.

Nothing was better than having a close friend by one's side. Having a shoulder to cry on and someone

to share one's happiness with were the best things in life.

Lucy and Gwendolyn looked at each other and smiled. It seemed as if they had been accompanying

each other all these years, and it felt so good to have such a companion.

They walked and chatted all the way to the store. Soon, they arrived at the store, which was a small

jewelry store.

Gwendolyn usually did not have time to go shopping, so she did not know that these small stores sold

self-defense tools as well.

After the two entered the store, Lucy brought her a few bottles of pepper spray. Gwendolyn felt that

those were so big that she could only put them in her bag. However, she could not carry her bag all the

time when she cleaned Patrick's house.

Thus, she asked the staff, “Do you have smaller ones here?”

The staff quickly took out a beautiful ring that was beset with a red, heart-shaped stone. It was

supposed to be worn on the index finger.

“Miss, this is the latest version. It's small, easy to carry, and looks good as an accessory.”

The staff pressed the stone as she spoke. Instantly, a thin and long needle stretched out from the front

of the stone.

“This needle has been soaked in anesthesia. Your opponent will be paralyzed for about five minutes

after being stabbed by it. It's a life-saving tool for girls.”
