Chapter 845 To Appreciate Each Other
You only saw the trunk on the surface of the ground, but you couldn't see how deep, dense, and long the roots buried under the ground. And now, if you want to shake the tree, you must be stronger than the wind, but are you? No.
I can say that in this world, no one can shake them unless the Icarus Association, the Sapphire family, and the Lost Vanguard join hands. But is it possible for these forces to work together?
It was impossible, wasn't it? Lost Vanguard was like an ant in front of the Marsh Family.
It's not impossible for an ant to shake a tree. It just needs a plan and an opportunity. This is a very important and rare opportunity. Maybe it can achieve double the result with half the effort. It's impossible for anyone else to give up this opportunity, let alone Jara."
After hearing that, Emmeline fell silent.
She didn't know that Jara would have to consider this when making the decision.
Why didn't he tell her?
Clearly, he knew that as long as he told her his struggles, she would have understood and supported him.
He should've let her know that he was not the kind of person in her mind who would do anything to achieve his goal or the kind of person who would forgo his principles.
It was just that when he was forced to the point where he could not retreat. In order to protect himself, he had no choice but to make that decision.
Why didn't he tell her?
Seeing the change in her expression, Isaac added, "Actually, you didn't know this. But Kayla knew about his plans, but she still agreed. Why?"
Suddenly, Emmeline looked up at him.
Then, Isaac laughed at himself. "Maybe you will think that she loved Jara so much that she was blinded by love and was willing to lose herself in do anything she didn't want to do. But Emmeline, that's you, not Kayla."
Hearing that, Emmeline was shocked.
The smile on Isaac's face turned a little bitter.
"Emmeline, from the outside, you seemed to look heartless, but in truth, you value friendship. In your heart, love is greater than anything. However, in some people's eyes, feelings for someone are nothing but the best decision you make for yourself after weighing the pros and cons."
"It's true that Kayla may have feelings for Jara and was truthful, but the reason she's willing to agree to the arrangement is definitely not because she's cornered and has no other choices."
"Before, when Jara brought up this matter to Kayla, he told her he would not let her stay by his side because he already had someone he liked. She was given two paths. One is to send her back to Ascijan so she could live her own life, and the other way is to go to Luca."
"Guess what she said?"
Hearing that, Emmeline was a little surprised, and there was a hint of confusion in her eyes.
With a sneer, Isaac said, "She chose Luca."
Emmeline frowned. "Why? Isn't she..."
"Isn't she in love with Jara? Why would she be willing to go to another man if she knew that the man would do something to her?"
In response, Isaac shook his head. "I've told you. Not everyone thinks of love as highly as you do. Perhaps she's in love with him, but there's no hope left for Jara now. He already told her that he won't like her, nor will he keep her by his side. If that's the case, why don't you find yourself the best choice? Luca may be a little old, but when it comes to his family background and appearance, Kayla was out of her league."
Hearing his explanation, Emmeline was completely shocked.
Indeed, after Isaac's analysis, Emmeline found out that she was too naive.
It turned out that the belief she had been guarding to death was really not worth mentioning for some people.
With the thought in mind, she had mixed feelings. As she recalled what she had said to Jara yesterday, she couldn't help but feel extremely remorseful.
Isaac had finished what he wanted to say, and he could tell from her expression that she had been listening to him.
His gaze deepened. Finally, he let out a sigh and stood up.
Looking at her, he said in a deep voice, "Emmeline, I shouldn't have said this. But when I see you both always arguing like this, I really can't help it."
He paused for a while and waited until Emmeline looked up at him before he continued, "The both of you are used to life and death. Today, you live, but you don't know what will happen tomorrow. If you really love each other, why don't you leave those prejudices and misunderstandings behind and be together? In this world, how many people who love each other are separated for various reasons? It was only when they were about to die that they regret their decisions. You guys grew up together, so you should be the people who know each other best. Why did you let such misunderstanding happen between you?"
Hearing that, Emmeline froze. For some reason, the corner of her eyes suddenly became hot.
After Isaac finished, he didn't stay any longer and said, "Think about it."
Then, he turned around and left.
After Isaac left, Emmeline did not move and kept sitting in the corridor.
She thought for a long time.
It seemed that the door of time was opened in front of her, and the whistling wind flooded her memories with flashbacks.
She seemed to have seen the righteous and open-hearted young man standing in front of her a long time ago and smiling.
At that moment, she thought to herself. Yes. She was the one who knew him best.
Why did they end up like this?
Shouldn't they be the two most closely connected people in the world? They should join hands and get through all the obstacles together. They should trust each other without holding grudges. Why did they let the thorns on our bodies hurt each other like this?
At the thought of this, Emmeline raised her hand and covered her face as tears started rolling down from her eyes.
In the evenig, Jara had returned home.
When he came back, he found that the lights in Emmeline's room on the second floor were still on, so he couldn't help but stop.
Raising his hand, he glanced at the time on his wristwatch. It was already eleven o'clock at night.
Usually, she had already fallen asleep at this time of the day. Why hadn't she slept yet today?
Was it because she was still angry with him?
She was probably still angry that he didn't listen to her advice. Even though she had already told him not to, but he still took Kayla to the wedding.
Thinking of this, Jara laughed at himself.
She was always like this. Even in the filthiest circle, she could still remain pure in her heart, and he wouldn't bear to offend her.
Fine, since she was angry, he'd better keep away from her.
At least, after a few days, she would be less angry and they could talk about it later.
With the thought in mind, he softened his steps and slowly walked up the stairs.
However, when he was only halfway there, he suddenly stopped.
Looking up, he saw a familiar and petite figure waiting for him.
Sitting in a wheelchair, she was staring deeply at him. When Jara saw that, his heart skipped a beat, suddenly losing his composure.
