How can a woman who changes her loyalties so easily be deserving of Matthew's deep love? It's madness.
Veronica spoke softly, "It is not your place to question whether I have done right by him or not. Did you come all this way to ask me to step aside and make way for you and Matt? Is that it?"
Her little scheme was evident to everyone.
Eviette rolled her eyes at her. "You're smarter than I thought." She crossed her arms, slightly lifted her chin, and wore an arrogant expression. "If you're smart, you should know when to let go. You know as well as I do that the only person who can help Matt now is me."
Although her words were confident, they were also true.
"Yes, I admit." Veronica nodded. "Matt is indeed in a crisis, and it is indeed because of me. But, will he accept your help?"
The answer was obvious. No. Matthew was a man with a strong sense of pride. He would never accept the 'helping hand' from Eviette, especially when her help came with strings attached.
Hearing her words, the proud look on Eviette's face vanished instantly, replaced by a hint of frustration and anger.
Deep down, she knew she had been good to Matthew and loved him enough, yet she lost to Veronica. Eviette was not willing to accept this.
"Yes, he might not accept."
Eviette didn't argue but tried to persuade her. "But have you ever thought that if you leave him, I will do everything in my power to help him? Even if it means draining the wealth of the Robins Family, I won't hesitate."
"Veronica, if it were me," Eviette pointed at her own chest. "At this moment, I would choose to step aside. Because I love him, I would do everything I can to help him. Love is not about possession, but about giving."
