âBenjamin Johnson, youâre the one with the problem. According to your logic, do you love Charmy Bennett? For a dead woman, you despised Daniel Marshall, and now you want to pursue me, I donât understand you at all, perhaps, youâre still as selfish as ever.â
Olivia Jenkins paused for a moment, then added, âYou donât understand what love is, you donât understand how to love someone, love is not about possession, nor can it be forced, your logic is flawed.â
Benjamin Johnsonâs expression remained serious, still staring intently at Olivia Jenkins.
âThank you for letting me hear a different point of view. I loved Charmy Bennett. During the month that I calmed down, aside from my hatred, I was astounded to find that I no longer missed her. But I canât help but remember every one of your smiles and frowns, maybe, Iâve started to like you.â
Olivia Jenkins massaged her throbbing forehead, âI recommend you to see a psychologist, let them help you sort your thoughts. Post-traumatic stress disorder, you may want to look into that, your issues might be similar.â
âBenjamin Johnson, aside from Daniel Marshall and Charmy Bennett, there are so many other wonderful things in your life. Therefore, you need to truly let go of the two of them before you can open yourself up to others, do you understand?â
âYou said you like me, you want to pursue me, would you have had this thought if I was not Daniel Marshallâs wife? Probably not! Youâre not acting rashly anymore, but you still canât let go.â
âBenjamin Johnson, I bear no ill feelings towards you, and I advise you to see a psychologist as soon as possible. It will liberate you, only when your heart is free, can you love others properly, then only you will understand what love actually is.â
âLife is still long, you have plenty of opportunities to start afresh. Only by letting go of your obsession can you experience true happiness. Moreover, you need to learn how to respect others, tolerate others, and regard other peopleâs feelings, only then people will reciprocate.â
Looking confused, Benjamin Johnson gazed at Olivia Jenkins, âThank you for talking to me so much, Iâll seriously consider it.â
Olivia Jenkins nodded slightly, hesitated a moment, and then spoke again, âIn comparison to before, I feel like youâve changed a bit. It seems like Charmyâs death has given you a wake-up call, youâre not a completely cold-blooded person.â
Benjamin Johnson pursed his lips and lowered his head.
Feelings of guilt started to well up in his heart, his loneliness grew deeper.
âI was truly arrogant!â
âEnough said, letâs eat. See a doctor early, then youâll able to resolve a lot of your confusion, and you wonât feel lost. You have money, you look good, and you have skills, thereâs no need to dwell on the past. The world will not stop spinning because of anyoneâs absence. The sun, after all, rises in the east and sets in the west every day.â
Benjamin Johnson could sense Olivia Jenkinsâ optimism and broke into a sincere smile as he looked at her.
âThank you for forgiving me!â
âThereâs only one chance, you must cherish it.â
Benjamin Johnsonâs face showed a rare hint of admiration, âNo wonder Daniel Marshall married you, youâre truly special, but you and Charmy Bennett are absolutely different, you two have completely different personalities.â
Olivia Jenkins laughed in self-mockery, âTo put it brutally, I crawled my way out from hell, nobody can understand the struggle better than me. If I didnât forgive myself, what could I do? We have to live on, no matter how different things are!â
Benjamin Johnson remained silent and started playing a voice recording.
Upon hearing this, Olivia Jenkinsâ face immediately changed.
Benjamin Johnson stopped the recording and sent it to Olivia Jenkins, along with a photograph.
