Chapter 255

"In this world, two things can never be grasped. One is time, and the other is a human's heart. If the other person's heart is no longer with you, no matter what you do to please them, their heart will never be yours. Why, then, should you spend so much energy doing something so futile? It's better to do a good job in your own business, improve yourself, and let yourself be the one who holds the initiative." Annie was caught off-guard, and the confusion in her eyes was replaced with admiration. "Aunt Corinne, what you said is so philosophical! I want to learn from you! Don't fret about men anymore and just focus on your career!" Corinne pinched her glabella, fearing that Annie would get the wrong idea and thus patiently explained, "That's not the case. It's good to fall in love and enrich your emotional life, but remember to never surrender yourself easily, let alone entrust your future to a man, wronging yourself to please a man. Understand?" Annie nodded, feeling wholly inspired.
