The Problematic Helper (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 95

No one believed it at first when they heard she was a divorcee at twenty-six.

But when the person herself went around saying it outright, there was nothing anyone could do.

“Anyway, she’s single, right?” Some guys thought that was great and made a move, while plenty of others turned away the moment they heard the word “divorcee.”
