Under the Veil I Rule novel Chapter 220

By all accounts, their marriage was nothing related to a love story, so their breakup should've been a clean, amicable one. Yet, when Amara declared she would never marry again, it sounded like the words of someone nursing a broken heart.

Suddenly, everyone started looking at them with a mix of curiosity and speculation.

Liliana snuck a glance at Finnian, eager to gauge his reaction to Amara's declaration. But Finnian's face was as unreadable as a poker player's, leaving her with nothing to go on.

Pondering for a short while, Liliana turned back to Amara. "Honestly, I think marriage is still the better option. Sure, being single gives you freedom, but the perks of marriage are something singles can't experience."

"Oh really? What are the perks of marriage?" asked someone single at the table.

Liliana's eyes sparkled with a hint of longing. "Once you're married, you have a partner who completes your soul and someone who genuinely cares about you. That kind of emotional fulfillment is something money can't buy."

She spoke slowly, with a pleasant smile that suggested marrying was the best decision ever.

To Amara, though, these were just empty words. She believed each state had its own merits. Marriage or no marriage, a person could feel whole on their own. What nonsense was this talk of needing a partner to feel complete?

Amara lowered her gaze, choosing not to reply. Noticing her silence, Liliana calmly pressed on, "Why so quiet, Ms. Sullivan? Don’t you have something to say?"

Amara was baffled by why Liliana was so insistent on this topic. She and Finnian were divorced; surely, she was no longer a concern for Liliana in every aspect. Why was she so fixated on this?
