Became the Step-Mother of the Rabbit Female Lead (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 28

“In the original story, Jade eventually got tamed by April and became her doormat.”

And this was despite the fact that ‘that’ April had grown up timid and withdrawn due to the strict upbringing by her governess, Mrs. Milton.
