Chapter 910

Aveline was surprised-she hadn’t expected Maria to actually fall for Sidney.

If that was the case, things were about to get complicated.

Sidney knew Maria’s true intentions from the start, which meant he was likely guarded and resentful toward her. If Maria hadn’t developed feelings, it wouldn’t be a big deal, but now that she had… What was she going to do?

After a moment of contemplation, Aveline asked, “What do you plan to do next?”

Maria sighed. “I’m not sure. I’ve been wondering if I should try to be with him. But it feels like such a long and difficult path ahead, and I don’t know if I have the endurance to see it through.” Maria was someone who hated complications.

That was why, unlike Brian and the others who practiced martial arts, she had only pursued her expertise in computers. Learning to fight seemed like too much hassle. Pursuing Sidney, with all the challenges it entailed, felt equally daunting. What was she supposed to do?

Aveline’s voice softened. “Maybe you need to ask yourself if you truly love him-enough to spend a lifetime with him. If that desire isn’t strong enough, maybe… it’s better to let it go. After all, your initial connection wasn’t exactly pure, and that will always be a barrier between you.”
