Karen Joy Kyle was saying these words to Samantha Lesley, but actually, she was saying it to herself too.
No matter where she went, home was her warmest harbor, and her parents were the ones who she would think of whenever things get rough.
She knew that her parents loved her unconditionally.
However, on the day of her 18th birthday, she felt that she had grown up. She didn't even tell them and left the country to find her Brother Lionel, which made her father angry. He was so angry that he didn't want to talk to her until now.
But what about her?
After crossing over to another country, she found her Brother Lionel, but he didn't want her to see him in the open.
Brother Lionel told her to wait for him as he deal with his matters first.
She knew that as the President of the country, Brother Lionel had too many responsibilities on his shoulders. She could understand him and wait for him.
But what she could not accept was that he had a fiancee, and Karen Joy suddenly turned into a mistress that was going to destroy the relationship between him and his fiancee.
A home-wrecking mistress!
She had never cared about this word as she was growing up, because her father and mother were devoted to each other, and no one could interfere with their relationship.
However, she knew a lot of her friends that had their families torn apart because of such a mistress.
When her friends mentioned the word "mistress", they would gnash their teeth with hatred, and she hated to be that person too.
But now, she had inadvertently become the mistress that she hated the most that would potentially destroy the relationship between the two of them.
She thought that this entire story sounded ridiculous and thought that she deserved it. In the beginning, without the consent and acknowledgement of her family, she left the country alone to find the person she wanted to see the most.
Now that she felt like things took a bad turn, and when she encountered a problem that she couldn't solve, the first thing she thought of was her family. She wanted to return to their side, hide under their wings, and have them protect her.
It turned out that she was such a coward!
She was so timid that she looked down on herself!
"Karen Joy, I know what you are saying. Although my parents are gone, I still have my brother. He loves me too." Although her brother was very strict with her, Samantha knew that her brother loved her very much.
"Samantha, all the best." Karen Joy patted Samantha's shoulder. Sometimes, she was envious of Samantha. She lived a simple life, and all she loved and needed was good food.
"Yes, yes, yes, I will do my best." Samantha nodded her head repeatedly.
"Samantha, you are talented and special too. You are better than a lot of people. Remember, in the future, you should be more confident and treat yourself well," Karen Joy said happily.
"Karen Joy... I'm doing very well," Samantha touched her head and said with a silly smile, "I've never thought that I'm worse than anyone else. Only other people would think of me that way."
"Alright, that's good." Karen Joy pursed her lips and smiled, "I'll leave first. We'll meet again when you come to New York in the future."
At this moment, she was not willing to face all of this. She was afraid that others would curse her and accuse her for being a homewrecker. She wouldn't mind being called a coward in relation to that.
If Brother Lionel wasn't the leader of the country, it wouldn't be a big deal to break off an engagement. However, he was the leader of the country, and his marriage was the focus of the nation.
For many years, leaders of a country would rarely get a divorce. Even if there was no affection between them, they would still stay together and spend the rest of their lives together to maintain a positive front for the nation.
