Caitlin nodded after heaving a sigh. “No doubt, Joyce is deeply in love with him. But I can assure you they can never be a couple. Undeniably, it's solely her unrequited love for him as he doesn't have any feelings for her. Not to mention, the Rivers family and the Quinn family have been harboring grudges against each other. Hence, even if they're in love with each other, it's impossible for both families to grant their wish to be together. As her mother, my heart wrenched at how she's loving Stanley unconditionally. I'm worried stiff that she'll be doomed one day. Thus, I hope you can win her heart. Even though I know I'm being selfish, but...”

“Mrs. Rivers, I understand.” Justin cut her off and reassured her, “To me, this is not selfishness. After all, I come all the way to J City because of Joyce.
