He had never heard her talk to him in such a distant and cold tone. Frederick's heart sank instantly and he felt terrible. He held his cell phone, but he did not call again.

Frederick suppressed his feelings inside. He understood that at this moment, he needed to calm down and reflect too. He needed to sort out his thoughts.

He turned the car around and didn't go looking for her anymore. Frederick went back to his office instead.

In the backroom, Freya laid out some refreshments and switched on the aromatherapy diffuser. "What's the matter? Is there something on your mind? The lavender can help clear your mind" "Aunt Freya."

Alicia's heart warmed as she leaned on her aunt's shoulder and replied, "Yes, there are some things I can't figure out. If only I could remain a child forever and never grow up. Grownups have too many troubles."

"You saying this means that you've already matured! You don't have to think about it. Just follow your heart. At least, you shouldn't regret it."

If she had followed her heart and chose to keep the child back then, she wouldn't be where she was presently. In fact, she had felt that she was wrong more than once. Life was a gamble, but she had yet to learn how to stop the hurt.

"Ally, have you ever heard a saying that a good woman won't have a good marriage! Do you know why?"

Alicia shook her head, but Freya smiled and continued.

"Because they are too sensible! When women are too sensible, the men will be spoiled. As a result, they won't grow up! I am a good example! I sacrificed everything, but the man never learnt to cherish me! However, bad women don't usually win either. In this world, the victors make the rules! I'm not teaching you to be a bad woman. But rather, don't be too sensible in a relationship! Most importantly, don't sacrifice everything for a man! Therefore, don't be sad because of love. Even if he belongs to you, you can't be sure the relationship will last, let alone if he doesn't belong to you. Why would you force it? If you can't handle it, you will only have yourself to blame."
