Hearing him say this, I was taken aback for a moment, quite unprepared. I couldn’t help but laugh and
nod my head.
Having packed and ready to leave, we were waiting in the hotel lobby for William to arrange the car
when Daniel and Sebastian also came down. Seeing us, they both paused slightly, seemingly taken
aback.
Sebastian pushed Daniel closer, looking at me and said, “Ms. Conner.”
I looked at them, both had changed into casual outfits, seemingly planning to go somewhere for fun. I
couldn’t help but laugh, “Are you guys also going out?”
Daniel nodded, smiling faintly, “Hmm, going out for a walk, what’s this about?”
“Likewise, the kids at home have never seen a primeval forest and they want to see it,” I said, without
asking them where they wanted to go.
Sebastian paused, surprised, “Ms. Conner, are you also going to the primeval forest?”
I paused and said. “Are you going too?”
Sebastian nodded, somehow hesitatingly looking at Daniel. He didn’t seem happy, but rather a bit
worried.
Daniel’s expression was unscathed, he just looked at me with a faint smile and said, “That’s perfect,
let’s go together.” C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
I nodded, feeling it was no big deal. After all, we were all going to have fun, and it would be lively
together.

Sebastian hesitated, then said, “Mr. Monroe…”
Daniel merely glanced at him indifferently, his expression unchanged.
Springbury was not like River City, filled with skyscrapers. Most things here retained a natural, primitive
flavor. Humans did not overly encroach here, and plants and animals grew harmoniously and densely.
Hermosa was a child, her perception of nature seemed to be much more genuine and straightforward
than adults. As soon as she arrived at the primeval forest, she was pulling William to climb to the
highest place.
Helplessly, William could only take him first.
The few who were left were either elderly or pregnant women, and of course, there was one in a
wheelchair.
Sebastian and I naturally couldn’t follow, so we sat in the animal performance area with a group of
people.
After sitting for about half an hour, the audience area was filled with constant applause due to the
wonderful performance of the animals. I honestly felt bored, so I said goodbye to Emma and the old
lady and left.
I found a spot by a fish pond in the scenic area to sit and space out. I like to space out in quiet places.
When Daniel arrived, my mind was still dull. If it weren’t for the sudden appearance of a large group of
goldfish in the pond, I wouldn’t have reacted for a moment.
Realizing that someone nearby was feeding the fish, I glanced
sideways and saw that Daniel had already thrown out most of the fish food he was holding.

“How did you get here?” I blurted out.
He handed me the fish food, smiling faintly, “You feed them.”
I took it, still waiting for his answer. He responded with a non sequitur, asking, “Don’t you like watching
animal performances?”
The fish in the pond huddled together, gulping down the fish food floating on the surface. I threw a
handful towards the area with the most fish and responded with a faint, “Hmm.”
“Why?” He was indeed a man of strong curiosity.
There wasn’t much fish feed left, after a few handfuls it was gone. I put away the empty bag, pursed my
lips, and said, “If a person wants to perform on stage and receive applause, they must put in a hundred
times the effort off stage. This is even more so for animals, who are forced to perform according to
human preferences. Humans perform out of love and passion, at least it’s their own will. But it’s
different for animals. They are forced and arranged in places that don’t belong to them, helplessly and
unwillingly accepting the same repetitive actions day after day. They mechanically perform actions that
humans like, to win their smiles and applause, to earn profits for those who torture them, and they
never gain freedom until they die.”
The sound of Daniel’s laughter reached my ears, I couldn’t tell if it was mockery or ridicule. I glanced at
him sideways, he was handsome, and his laughter made him even more so.
Seeing me look at him, he reined in his laughter and looked at me, saying, “Tabatha, in your heart,
anyone who is weak is pitiful, right?”
I really didn’t know how to respond to that remark, but I had a feeling it wasn’t well-intentioned.
pursed my lips at him, “Is it wrong to pity the weak?”

He nodded, inditlerent. “Yes, but also no Everything in the world has its own rules of survival The
strong survive, the weak perish, and no one can change that. The animals forced to perform are
foolish, overly trusting of others, which is why they are captured and tamed. In this world, there are
countless animals like them that are free The same goes for people. Those who can’t live well, who are
oppressed and bullied, they deserve it. Who’s to blame if they’re not hardworking enough, not ruthless
enough, not vicious enough, not strong enough? The root of all suffering comes from their own
weakness ”
