Anna wasn’t home. This girl brings trouble. What if something happens?”
Anna’s mother’s eyes filled again.
“All you do isin!”
“You know how Anna is right now. A friending to keep herpany is good. This is on you. She just came back, and you rushed to arrange blind dates. You’ve lost your mind…”

Anna didn’t truly expect one.
She continued, “I didn’t before. Growing up, I did everything right and lived exactly how my parents nned. Then one day, it suddenly hit me…”
“Why should I? I’m me. Why force myself into their mold? That’s their life, not mine.”
So she began to push back.
To others, she was the carefree and bright Ann.
For a while, life felt easy, until she met Leon.
At first, she was superficial and drawn in by looks. Then she realized she never met anyone like him.
“He’s sharp, dominant, yet oddly gentle in tiny details. I thought I found real love. I’m not exaggerating. Even now I still don’t dare think about him.”
Anna lowered her head, her voice sinking with a faint tremor. “I never thought that saying online was true. If someone steals your breath at first sight, it’s probably karmaing due.”
After being involved with Leon for <i>so </i>long, she felt like she already lived an entire lifetime.
Dawn gripped her hand tightly. Her fingers were cold.
The face before her looked pale and fragile, as if it might break at any moment.
“You weren’t wrong to think that way before, and you’re not wrong now. Your uncle wants you to go on blind dates. Maybe he thinks it’s for your benefit. If you don’t want to, then don’t. Okay?”
“How is that for my
benefit?”
Anna let out a dry, mockingugh. “He just wants to squeeze out whatever value I have left.”
She was involved with Leon, and it wasn’t a secret. Once word spread, no respectable marriage arrangement would ept her.
Before that happened, Hubert would make sure she married quickly.
People outside thought being born into a powerful family meant lifelong ease. It did, but it was also another kind of misfortune.
If one was born into a loving home with devoted parents, happiness came naturally.
If not, then one would exist as a tool to strengthen the family.
Dawn felt something tighten painfully around her chest. She spoke hoarsely, “I’m sorry, Ann. I didn’t knowing back meant all this. Let’s leave, okay? Come with me.”
Anna smiled, though her eyes shimmered with tears.
“Dawn, can I stay at your ce forever?”
“Of…
“Of course not.”

Anna interrupted calmly, every word clear. “My surname is Winsor. My father’s blood runs in me. That means I can’t escape them forever. Just like when I ran to Northville, he still knew exactly where I was.”
Dawn’s tears fell before she realized it.
“No… no, Ann.”
She was so free–spirited. If she truly married someone she didn’t love, how unbearable would the rest of her life be?
Anna turned back toward the window. The dappled shadows of trees reflected in her eyes and swallowed all earlier emotion.
“I’ll be fine. Maybe marriage isn’t so terrible. A lot of people grow to love each other. And honestly, I’m exhausted.”
She no longer wanted to resist.
