Jenson fixed an evaluative gaze on Baby Robbie's face. His face had once been extremely bright and youthful. However, the dark expression currently etched upon it told him that he was experiencing some deep worries.
"Isn't it a good thing that they've entered the cycle of rebirth? Why aren't you happy?”
Baby Robbie said, "Tenzel said that only one of them among the three can return to the world. He mentioned that this person will be the person who loves me the most. She'll be the only one who can overcome all sorts of difficulties and return to my side."
Baby Robbie's expression suddenly darkened. He lowered his head and said in a stuffy tone, "Since someone is capable of overcoming plenty of hardships to be by my side, why can’t I get over all the adversities around me and look for her?"
Jenson said, "Baby Robbie, what are you thinking about? Actually, I know everything. The other sisters know everything as well. I just want to remind you that in this world, if the person you love doesn’t love you back, you’d be better off looking for someone who does love you."
There was an unwilling expression on Baby Robbie's handsome face. "Jens, you aren't her. How do you know her thoughts?"
Jens chuckled and said, "Baby Robbie, there are many things that are more meaningful than romantic love in the world. For instance, our ideals. I believe that you aren't a devoted fool for love. I hope that you can be a warrior who sticks to your own beliefs."
Baby Robbie was young and rash. He did not understand the deep implications behind Jens' words. He simply felt extremely confused. "Jens, you and Whitney love each other. You're telling me all this without ever experiencing anything that I’ve gone through.”
Jens remained silent.
Whitney happened to catch sight of this scene.
Jens' silence and his life motto, 'Humans live not just for love', shocked Whitney thoroughly.
At that moment, Whitney started wondering how genuine Jens' love toward her was.
She suddenly recalled their time back in Legendary Academy. Jens had always avoided her and even tried scheming against her to escape her. He trapped her in the female etiquette class for several years. Back then, all her friends and family advised her not to catch feelings for Jens. That was because most of them could tell that Jenson did not love her from their personal experience.
Whitney had felt extremely disappointed. She was an idealist in love. She regarded romantic love highly and had high expectations toward love. However, Jens did not understand her at all. He simply accepted her because she was a suitable match for him, right?
