Ivanna spoke while setting down her spoon. She had eaten a lot, and her face seemed to have gained a healthy flush.
"She's in Foswood now?" I said casually, not paying much attention to Kimberly.

That would be so nice." I looked at her lazy posture and chuckled sarcastically, "Haha... living off others and waiting to die, isn't that against your character?" She chuckled as well, "People are fickle." "If you want this kind of life, it's simple. Forget about your so-called ideals and aspirations, marry Jared, and be a full-thousewife. Then you can lie down and wait for things to fall from the sky." My words were meant to be a playful joke, but I noticed she fell silent as soon as I said them. I stared at her face and asked, "What's wrong? Why aren't you saying anything?" She sighed bitterly and softly said, "A full-thousewife? That was never my dream. Do you remember the words I said to you before your divorce?" "Of course. I know your principles." I replied, dropping the playful tone and speaking seriously.

I softened my tone and said, "Since you've chosen Jared, you have to face many challenges. Have you ever thought about that? Relationships aren't just about romance, they require responsibility and tolerance." Ivanna opened her eyes, givinga bitter smile. "I'd like to be tolerant and responsible, but he has to givethat chance. Chloe, I always feel like I'm the one carrying the burden." Clearly, she felt wronged. She was not one to hide her emotions and definitely not one to pretend everything was fine.

"He and Trinity have been together for over 10 years, working side by side since they were 15. So, it's natural they have a tacit understanding. I can accept that." She spoke with a hint of stubbornness, "But every tsomething involves Trinity, I'm the one who has to compromise."
"You should've been prepared for this. After all, when you met himm Trinity was already there. She was the first, and you clater," I half-jokingly told her.
