Helen subconsciously substituted herself as Curtis's wife in her mind, and she instantly felt that her eyes were already filled with tears. 2
She wanted to hold the tears back, but she really would not have expected that big drops of tears would gush out of her eyes because she could not control it 0 r hold it back at all. The tears slid down her wrinkle-free face which seemed to show no signs of aging whatsoever. 4
The old butler who was standing aside could only sigh silently when he saw this.
"Sigh... who in the entire capital would not know that the second lady of the Dunn family has been deeply in love with Curtis for so many years...”
"However, who would have known that the second lady would still have such deep feelings and affection for him even after Curtis has already passed away nearly twenty years ago..." 3
Ever since time began, love and sentimental affections would leave nothing but everlasting hatred behind.
According to the ancient time, regret would be more suited for the word hatred.
A person who was infatuated would only be left behind with regret, and this regret would be everlasting.
This was the exact case for Helen. 3
A person who had never experienced this kind of deeply ingrained love would never be able to understand a person's obsession with another person. 1
As long as someone was obsessed, it would not matter even if they were apart for ten or twenty years, if they were thousands of miles apart, separated by a great distance, or even if they were separated by death. 4
This was the case for Helen. 2
She had wanted to forget Curtis a long time ago so that she could focus on living her life in a down-to-earth manner.
However, the obsession in her heart would not allow her to do so.
That obsession was like a weed that was growing in her heart.
She could not plant anything else in her heart anymore because of that weed. 4
Sometimes, she felt that this weed was already overgrown, and sometimes she even felt that it had already been burnt to ashes. 1
