Chapter 435 “You’re wrong. Humans are emotional animals. Nobody will ever be willing to sacrifice for nothing. No matter how deep your love for him is, there will come one day when you get tired of him,” explained Sage. Melody’s brow furrowed, “That doesn’t mean that we should be afraid to love just because it might hurt us one day!”
“That’s not what I meant. The point I’m trying to make is, that you have to understand your love has to do with you and only you. If you understand that, then you won’t be overwhelmed by regrets in the future. If you decide to love somebody, do everything you can, and live your life to the fullest. If no matter what you do, your feelings are still only one-sided, then you have to be able to let go and be okay with failure.” Sage replied wholeheartedly.
After a few moments of silence, Melody finally understood what Sage was trying to tell her.
“I understand now. I have to be honest with myself. If I love him then I should be ready to do everything I can but I have to always remember that I must also protect myself and not do anything that I would regret in the future. The consequences of my actions are mine to bear,” Melody’s reply was filled with understanding.
Sage pat her head and said, “That’s right.”
“I got it. Don’t worry, I’m not that fragile. Nobody can break my heart! All I have to do is make sure he falls for me instead,” said Melody.
Sage could swear that she had heard those words before. Sage could not help but remember how confident she was when her mother told her not to fall in love with another person. Sage knew that some lessons had to be learned and not taught. No matter how much she tries to convince Melody, it wouldn’t work unless she experiences it for herself.
When the car arrived at Rose Garden, Melody could feel her legs wobble. The moment they got off the car, Melody grabbed Sage’s hand and said in a timid voice, “Sage, if Ross tries to hit me, you have to protect me. I’m sure if you tell him off, he’ll listen to you.” Sage gave a sideward glance, “Do you know now that your actions have consequences?” Melody eyes widened and she was almost dragged into the house by Sage. When they entered the house, they were immediately greeted by the scene of Ross sitting with the butler and chatting over tea. They were clearly having fun and enjoying each other’s company.
