Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 1135

“She’s probably just mad because I made a decision on my own and didn’t care about how she felt. I’ll apologize. I’ll try to make it right and she’ll come around.” Caspian just couldn’t wrap his head around the breakup. He had shown up today so happy, so hopeful, never thinking this would be the day Lucinda left him.

There was a time when he couldn’t even imagine Lucinda actually being his girlfriend. But somehow, he’d managed to make it happen. No one knew just how thrilled he’d been, how thankful he felt every single day. He’d lost count of the times he silently thanked the universe for bringing her into his life. But now, after having her for such a short time, why did life have to take her away so cruelly?

Breanna wathed her brother, heart breaking as he clung to denial. She let out a soft sigh and squeezed his shoulder.

“Caspian, the worst thing you can do in a relationship is lie to yourself. Loving someone isn’t wrong, but you can’t ignore how they treat you. Real love is about both people meeting each other halfway, not one person chasing after someone who doesn’t care. Anyone can see the way Lucinda treated you. She never saw you as her equal.”

Caspian’s hands shook. Breanna’s words hurt, but he knew she was right. He thought about all the times Lucinda brushed him off, the way she barely responded, how he’d tiptoed around trying to keep things together. That bitter feeling in his chest just kept growing.

Even so, he couldn’t bring himself to let go. It was like being a moth drawn to a flame, knowing exactly how it would end but unable to stop himself.

His voice was raw with pain. “I thought if I just tried harder, if I loved her enough, she’d finally let me in.”

Breanna’s eyes softened. “Love doesn’t work like that. You can’t force someone to love you back by trying harder. The more you give in a one-sided relationship, the more it hurts. It’s like holding sand in your hand. If you squeeze too tight, it just slips away faster. Lucinda never appreciated what you gave her. That’s not your fault. She’s just not the right person for you.”
