Never Blinded by Love

Chapter 247

Ida suddenly started laughing. It was unclear whether she was mocking herself or Linda.

"Linda, I admire you in some moments. You've been able to love a man for so many years despite him ignoring you and treating you with indifference, even avoiding you like a plague.

"Yet, you continue to care for him with all your heart. If I were you, I would have given up long ago. I don't believe that love can overcome everything in this world or that it can last forever and protect everything.

"True happiness comes from what you have in your own hands, not from placing all your hopes on a man.

"But I must admit that you're braver than I am. Even in such dire circumstances, you're still willing to give everything to love William without expecting any return. I couldn't do that, of course, because I simply don't have the right to love and hate so deeply as you do."

Ida was very different from Linda. But Linda felt that Ida's strength lay in knowing she couldn't gain someone's love, so she didn't delve deeply and ended up being hurt.
