Chapter 343 The Confession Failed

He rejected her bluntly and decisively, but Olivia’s voice became increasingly choked up, “I can provide

myself with stability and security. Who is suitable for dating? Who is suitable for marriage? Isn’t it

something we find out through gradual interaction and adjustment? You reject me without even

thinking, is it because you already have someone you like?”

Olivia asked this question very carefully.

After a moment of silence in the air, Alexander’s voice came, “No.”

Seemingly sensing Alexander’s coldness, Olivia’s voice gradually steadied as well, voicing out, “So,

you simply don’t like me, right?”

“No.” Alexander was clearly a bit frustrated, “You’re great, that’s not what I meant.”

The noise at the stairway quieted down for about half a minute. I couldn’t see the expressions of the

two, so naturally, I didn’t know the specific situation. However, I did figure out that Alexander had

rejected Olivia.

After a while, Olivia’s voice came from the stairway, “Thank you for telling me this, I understand now.”

Alexander gave a slight nod, seeming to have breathed a sigh of relief.

Hearing footsteps, I felt a bit guilty, worried about being discovered, and forced myself to hide behind a

pillar. I really didn’t mean to eavesdrop, it was truly an accident.

If the two of them had seen me here, they would probably have died of

embarrassment.

Listening to the footsteps fading away, I stepped out from behind the pillar, let out a slight sigh of relief,

glad that I hadn’t bumped into

anyone.

“Were… were you eavesdropping just now?” A voice came from behind. I stiffened, slowly turned

around, and met Olivia’s somewhat reddened eyes, obviously caused by crying earlier.

Looking at her, I forced out a stiff laugh, “Hehe, you… how come you’re here?”

She hadn’t recovered from her emotions yet, walked up to me and said, “Didn’t you hear everything just

now, Tabatha? That was very rude of vou.”

I awkwardly panicked and helplessly said, “Would you believe me if I said, I really didn’t mean to

eavesdrop?”

She sighed, nonchalantly saying, “It doesn’t matter anymore, just don’t make fun of me.”

I quickly shook my head, “No, why would I make fun of you? You’re quite brave.” Confessing your

feelings without knowing the other person’s thoughts, even if you were rejected, was exceptionally

brave.

She leaned against the railing, watching the snowflakes fluttering outside, and pursed her lips, saying,

“What kind of courage is this? It’s more like recklessness.”

I was not very good at comforting people, especially in cases of failed confessions of love. After some

thought, I said, “No, there are no set rules when it comes to feelings. If you like him, just tell him. That’s

perfectly normal. If he doesn’t like you, that’s okay. You’re beautiful and talented, and a good person. If

he misses out on you, it’s his loss.”

“PM!” She couldn’t help but laugh, her crescent-shaped eyes looking at me as she said, “Tabatha, your

words of comfort are so old-fashioned.”

I gave a bitter smile, truly, I was not good at comforting people.

She watched the snowflakes outside, catching a few in her palm. As she watched them slowly melt,

she withdrew her soft, snow-white hand and said, “Yes, I’m not lacking, he won’t harm me, I won’t give

up, no matter what the final result is, I have to try to know.”

“Huh?” I was a bit confused, looking at her without understanding, “You…”

She grinned at me and said, “I’m still going to pursue him.”

I was a bit panicked. The most terrifying thing in this world is an indifferent person, a relentless

entanglement. This kind of emotion is the most frightening. The lightest consequence is the loss of

dignity, the heaviest could lead to obsession. After all, in these past years, there have been no

shortage of supporting female characters in TV dramas and novels who have gone crazy for love.

I gathered my thoughts and looked at Olivia, saying, “Olivia, love is not the only thing in life. Liking and

loving are roughly the same. If we can’t have it, we don’t necessarily have to destroy it. We should

allow flowers to bloom, and also accept that they may not bloom for us.”

After hearing me talk so much, Olivia twisted her little face, holding back her laughter as she looked at

me and said, “Tabatha, what are you talking about, what’s this about ruining and not ruining?”

I forced a smile, somewhat embarrassed, and said, “Alexander isn’t really a bad person, he just doesn’t

love you. That doesn’t make him your enemy. Besides, relationships between people aren’t just about

love, they can also be friendships or even familial bonds.”
