Chapter 1561
Marlee and Fraser stared at the merchant ship’s sensors.
Time passed slowly.
Every single second was torment for the people on the merchant ship.
Suddenly, Marlee noticed the approaching object in front of her move, and it was moving in the direction of the
ship.
When she saw that, Marlee’s heart rose to her throat.
She was afraid that she was only hallucinating because she was too nervous.
Thus, she hastily rubbed her eyes with both hands to look closer.
What she saw immediately made her eyes widen in horror.
On the sensor, a light spot in front of them was rapidly approaching the merchant ship.
Originally, although the two were getting closer, they were like two parallel lines that could never intersect.
Now, the light spot changed its trajectory and started to move toward the merchant ship.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIf this continued, their paths would soon intersect.
The other party was obviously coming for the merchant ship.
‘Did we run into space pirates?
‘Why did this happen?
‘Why did fate treat me like this?
‘Why won’t it give me a chance?’
Seeing that they would soon arrive at a place of hope, but now, there was an unbridgeable gap.
Marlee felt a strong sense of powerlessness.
Back when she was wandering outside, she was unfairly treated by fate which caused her to return to the Jung
family alone while pregnant.
Over the years, Marlee gave birth to her daughter Peggy alone. How much criticism and pressure had she
endured since then?
Even the members of the Jung family talked about her behind her back, let alone outsiders.
If not for her daughter’s sake, Marlee would not have been able to handle it anymore.
She did not want to think about anything now. She just wanted to bring up her daughter Peggy safely until Peggy
could be independent.
Despite this, it seemed that fate did not want to satisfy even this simple request.
Perhaps she used up all of her good luck in the first half of her life, and that was why Marlee had such a miserable
life in the second half of her life.
She used to be the proud daughter of the Jung family.
Not only was she talented, but her beautiful appearance was also famous in the galaxy where the Jung family was
located.
A lot of the heirs of countless forces were attracted to her and there were waves of people who came to ask for
her hand. 1
On the contrary, whenever her name was mentioned now, she would be as the butt of their jokes.
Fraser also saw what was happening on the sensor.
He yelled in horror, “M-Miss! It… It’s coming toward us, w-what should we do?”
When the rest of the staff in the control room heard Fraser’s voice, they all turned to look at the two of

Marlee’s mind was also in turmoil at that moment.
‘What should we do?
‘How would I know?’
In this situation, the only thing they could do was to pray that the other party would only ask for some money and
let them go.
She would then think of it as paying some money to avert disaster.
She did not want to encounter the cruelest space pirates.
Otherwise, the hopes of the people on this boat, as well as the entire Jung family, would be shattered.
Smack!
Marlee recovered and slammed down on the alarm again.
Buzz buzz buzz!
Harsh alarms resonated throughout the entire merchant ship again.
