“People from those powerful families aren’t exactly known for their morals. If you really join the Jennings family, Ryan will definitely be secretly eyeing you…”

“I’m not some irresistible woman. I’m not that special,” I said coldly. “I only care about the person who’s with me now. Everyone else? They’re just passing through my life.”

“Victoria, you’re way too naive…” Jared’s eyes were dark as he stared at me. “Men are all about conquest. Don’t underestimate how far they’ll go just to get what they want.”

I couldn’t help feeling bitter. “So, in your eyes, women are just trophies, just tools for your pleasure–no dignity, no say in anything?”

Jared was stunned, clearly not expecting me to get it right away.

I arched an eyebrow. “Thanks for the heads–up. You know, sometimes I think staying free is actually simple. When fate tries to tie you up, don’t just sit there and pray for mercy. Then it can’t hold you.”

Jared blinked.

“You think I’m with Edward because I’m looking for a place to belong? Nope. I’m just here for the journey,” I said, squatting down and resting my chin in my hand as I looked at him. “You told Yvonne I want to be free like the wind. Thanks for telling her that.”

Jared gazed at me, lost in thought. Suddenly, he reached out as if to grab me, but I was too far away. “Victoria, you’re reckless and untamed now. There’s no way I can hold onto you anymore.”

I sat by the door, hugging my knees, my face pressed against them. “Jared, I’ve figured it out. You don’t have to get married to live a great life. Sure, if you meet someone you truly love, go for it–but always keep a backup plan for yourself. When you know you’ve got a way out, you won’t feel trapped inside.”

“Let me be your backup plan, okay?” Jared suddenly got up and crouched down beside me. “I want to be your safety net.”

I stared at him, surprised. “Sorry, but my backup plan isn’t a person. It’s money–cold hard cash that’ll never stab me in the back.”
