Chapter 247 Ida suddenly started laughing. It was unclear whether she was mocking herself or Linda.
"Linda, I admire you in smoments. You've been able to love a man for so many years despite him ignoring you and treating you with indifference, even avoiding you like a plague.
"Yet, you continue to care for him with all your heart. If I were you, I would have given up long ago. I don't believe that love can overceverything in this world or that it can last forever and protect everything. "True happiness comes from what you have in your own hands, not from placing all your hopes on a man. "But I must admit that you're braver than I am. Even in such dire circumstances, you're still willing to give everything to love William without expecting any return. I couldn't do that, of course, because I simply don't have the right to love and hate so deeply as you do." Ida was very different from Linda. But Linda felt that Ida's strength lay in knowing she couldn't gain someone's love, so she didn't delve deeply and ended up being hurt.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIda had always sought a comfortable life, and her disputes with Linda were also due to Joanne. Everything she did was for herself, not for others.
This was what outsiders saw as selfishness. Selfish people were ambitious. But being ambitious was not necessarily a negative trait.
Selfishness could be seen as a positive trait. When a person truly loved themselves, everything around them seemed less important.
"I've often wondered if I had your background, would my path have been less difficult?" Ida had always hoped for a better background so that pursuing anything would be easier, but the reality was cruel.
"Do you think that with my background, you could have done whatever you wanted?" Linda found it laughable. "My background was created from scratch by my father, and it wasn't something I casually acquired. You may be clear-headed and selfish, but you've never considered the practical issues. "What kind of person is Joanne? If she truly wanted to help you, do you think your identity would only be that of an adopted daughter?" Linda's words pierced through Ida's illusions. She had been used all along.
"That fire from years ago was also orchestrated by Joanne, wasn't it? She didn't directly tell you to set the fire to kill me. Instead, she used other means to convey that only if I died could you have William and the life you wanted.
"You were repressed for so long and desperate for freedom, so you foolishly set that fire and even killed the arsonist.
"Ida, I find you absurd sometimes. You've always been a pawn, yet you seem quite enthusiastic and immersed in it."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhat kind of person was Joanne? She was never a good person, son how could she possibly think of helping others? Ida was just a pawn that could be discarded at any time.
"If Joanne had intended to help you, she wouldn't have ignored you when in trouble Xouj you were in just couldn't see Clearly or understand the situation." Linda and Ida had nothing more to say to each other before. They were fundamentally enemies.
But now, Linda no longer had the love she once felt for William. They were no longer enemies, just former perpetrators of harm.
"To be honest, I never expected you to survive. That fire raged for a whole day and night, turning the entire villa into ruins, leaving only a framework. I'm curious about how you got away." The reason Ida wanted to see Linda was because she still didn't know the answer to this mystery. Like RICH WOMEN? These women desperately want a mature men!
