Chapter 337 A Lazy Habit

“If she can recognize her own situation and not isolate herself, then her life will still be relatively normal.— However, if she can’t make an effort to integrate into society, life will be quite tough for her. But Ms. Stafford is clearly a clever woman. It will undoubtedly be a simple matter for her if she truly wishes to form a connection with someone.”

I hope when you communicate with her, you can help her unravel her if you’re feelings toward me. After all, she and I are engaged. Can you manage that? As for her secrets, capable, you can ask her yourself.”
