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.

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."

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."
