His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 487

Arianna did not coax Brittany nor comfort her. She let Brittany cry until her tears ended before asking, “Are you ready to talk now?”

Brittany blew her nose with the tissue Arianna gave her. With wet eyes, she said, “You know, he is going to get engaged, but I don’t even know who the woman is.”

“Sigh, so that’s what this is about.” Arianna objected, “I thought it was something bigger. He is only getting engaged, not married. Even if it was marriage, the divorce rates nowadays are high. What’s up with you?”

No one had ever said anything like that to Brittany from when she discovered Alexander had gotten engaged to when she confirmed it. Her parents were careful not to bring it up, while Brandon outright suggested that she give up. However, Arianna told her it was not a big deal. For a moment, she was stunned.

"I-Is that so?"

"Why not?" Bending at the waist, Arianna picked up two cups of fruit tea. She handed one to Brittany and held the other to warm her hand. "Brittany, I'm not trying to be hard on you, but look into the mirror. You're a good catch. Do you know how good of a catch you are? You have so many fans, including fans of your movies.

“There are plenty of people crazy over you. Why do you have no confidence in yourself? I've always admired you. You love hard and hate hard. You go after what you like. Yet, despite that…" She sighed and shook her head.

"I-I've been pursuing him." When Arianna said all this, Brittany got anxious. Her face flushed as she continued, "I chased him for many years. You know this, but he’s neutral toward me. What am I supposed to do?"

Brittany felt she had worked very hard. Someone else would have given up by now, but not her; she persisted. She believed her determination would touch him, and she would get a happy ending. Ultimately, this happened.

"You call that pursuing?" Arianna looked at Brittany and shook her head like she could not believe it.
