Chapter 10
Beatrice didn’t expect him to suddenly ask such a question, and for a moment, she was also confused
To be honest, she didn’t know how to answer him either.
After all, in her perception, emotions were just a flavor enhancer in her dull life.
She was born into a wealthy family, and she grew tired of all the delicacies from the mountains became bored of the scenery in the world. Every day, all she did was eat, drink, and have fin

Living a life that was a mere copy and paste, Beatrice spent over twenty years and felt that the days were extremely boring.
Before the age of nineteen, she had also been in two relationships, both with wealthy young men, and being with them was still the same old thing. nothing interesting.
Until she met Darian, she had followed this ordinary boy for three years, broke away from her family for him, and ran away from home. She lost everything and hit rock bottom, only then did she finally experience something different.
What aroused her interest was not the impoverished and miserable life, but the human heart.
The complex human nature and scheming tactics that she had never witnessed before, she learned them one by one by being around Durian.
And she, being intelligent, even imitated those people and began to manipulate people’s hearts.
For example, Kendra
This person, who came from an ordinary family background and had a little bit of cleverness, considered themselves to be of the same social class as her. They felt sorry for the life she was living, so they treated her with all kinds of kindness.
Every time Beatrice saw her showing a compassionate or sympathetic expression, she found it very interesting
Because she knew that they were not from the szime
the same social class
Her family was very wealthy. As long as she admitted her mistakes and apologized, she could go back home anytime and enjoy the life of a young lady She didn’t have to work tirelessly like Kendra, just to earn money to buy a house and settle down.
She was surrounded by people who sought her favor, even if she had fallen to the point of living in a rented house, it was a choice she willingly made. As long as she showed a little bit of liking, someone would bring her the things she liked. Unlike Kendra, who would be moved to tears by just receiving something good.
She didn’t need to give anything in the relationship. In her perspective, everything that happened in love was like a drama, and she only played the role of the leading lady. She needed to fully immerse herself in performing joy, anger, sorrow, and madness. But when the curtain fell, she would return to her original position, not lurving to give everything like Kendra did for a deceived love,
So in this friendship, from beginning to end, Kendra was just a supporting role in her director’s play.
And this drama of a rich girl falling in love with a poor boy has now reached its conclusion, with the rich girl suddenly realizing the truth and the affectionate second male lead taking his place.
She unceremoniously abandoned Darian and chose the unwaveringly infatuated Erick.
Doesn’t this fit the trend of idol dramas?
So Beatrice remained silent for a long time, unable to come up with a specific reason, and in the end could only tell Erick.
“Because it was not until today that I realized, over the past decade, you had already left an indelible mark in my heart. Unbeknownst to me, I had already fallen in love with you.”
She imitated the expressions of the female protagonist in the TV drama, trying to express both regret and deep affection to the fullest.
Does it matter whether these words are true or false?
It doesn’t matter anyway, since Erick likes her so much. She agreed to be with him, and he couldn’t be happier.
Why doubt the authenticity?
She was very
satisfied with the performance she presented and the answer she gave. She felt that she had achieved perfection and couldn’t help but want to see Erick’s expression and feedback.
But as soon as I turned my head, the anticipated shock and surprise did not appear.
He lowered his head, with a look of disappointment on his face, yet his eyes revealed a hint of clarity.

As it awakened from a haze.
After taking Beatrice home, Erick returned to the rented house alone, but he did not go upstairs.
He stood under the tall plane tree, silently gazing up at the room that had already gone dark, his mind constantly speculating on what Kendra might be doing at that moment,
Is he already asleep? Or is he fumbling in the dark playing with his phone? Or is he tossing and turning unable to sleep because of what he left her during the day?
She must have had complaints in her heart, otherwise she wouldn’t ignore messages and not answer phone calls.
But Erick is not worried about this now, because he knows Kendra is easily appeased
He was worried about how to deal with the complicated relationship among the three of them.
So he didn’t know how to face her, didn’t know whether to tell the truth now or not.
Evading is shameful.
After standing downstairs for two hours, Erick finally realized this.
