Chapter 910

Aveline was surprised-she hadn't expected Maria to actually fall for Sidney.

If that was the case, things were about to get complicated.

Sidney knew Maria's true intentions from the start, which meant he was likely guarded and resentful toward her. If Maria hadn't developed feelings, it wouldn't be a big deal, but now that she had... What was she going to do?

After a moment of contemplation, Aveline asked, "What do you plan to do next?"

Aveline's voice softened. "Maybe you need to ask yourself if you truly love him-enough to spend a lifetime with him. If that desire isn't strong enough, maybe... it's better to let it go. After all, your initial connection wasn't exactly pure, and that will always be a barrier between you."

Even if they managed to get together, old wounds would inevitably resurface during arguments. What then?
