After a long moment of silence, Leah was still very disappointed.
Leah was speechless at how weak her sister was when it came to a man.
"Can't you be a little more affirmative?" Leah said. Her tone was filled with resentment in her sister's failure to live up to her expectations.
Rowane hesitated for a while, then she said in a low voice, "Leah, you are spineless when it comes to Ernest too, right? Because you love him, you humbled yourself and lost your principles."
Leah was stunned by her words. At that moment, Leah could not refute.
She had to admit, she was dumbfounded at the comparison.
It was true, she could not help herself when it came to Ernest.
If that was the case, how could she blame her sister for not having the backbone to deal with Hogan?
After a short moment of silence, Rowane apologized quickly, "Sorry, Leah. I know that these words might hurt you, but I was confused at that moment. I know that I should not be like that too."
"I should have a bottom line when it comes to Hogan. After all, not only did he hurt me so badly, he didn't really love me too."
"I understand. It is just that I would sometimes waver. However, I will still convince myself quickly."
"I don't want to disappoint you, nor do I want to make myself regret it in the future. Most importantly, I don't want to be the type of person I hate."
When Leah heard that, the raging fire in her heart suddenly dissipated.
Leah took a deep breath and said, "Rowane, my attitude towards you was a little bad, I admit I was disappointed in you. I'm sorry."
"No, no, no!" Rowane hurriedly said, "Leah, you don't have to apologize. I know that you are doing this for my own good."
"My apology to you is still necessary. After all, I did not look at it from your point of view." Leah said sincerely, "What you said to me was right. If I were you, I would not have been able to do it too."
"Leah, you don't have to comfort me." Rowane became sorry and guilty. "I know that I shouldn't waver when it comes to this. Sister, this is the last time. I promise."
"It's alright." Leah thought about it and realized that this matter might be a little hard for her.
After all, a girl would not be able to wake up from the vortex of love so easily.
Besides, not everyone could keep a clear head at all times.
Not many could stay level-headed when they were in a relationship.
"You don't have to care about what I think. However, this won't be over so easily." Leah was still rational, she spoke in a calm tone too. "Hogan's mother actually hired someone to kidnap Ernest and me."
"Ah!" Rowane gasped as soon as she heard that. She anxiously asked in concern, "Sister, are you and Ernest all right? Were you hurt by them?"
"Luckily, Ernest was strong enough to fight against four people by himself. Otherwise, we would have definitely been hurt." When Leah thought of that scene, she could not help but feel a lingering fear in her heart.
Just the thought alone was terrifying enough. How dangerous it was!
