Pursing her lips, Brittany said, “I’ll stop being angry if you stop saying that.”
Upon hearing this, Arianna could not help but laugh as she reached out to pinch Brittany‘s cheek. “You
idi*t! Even if you’re a dog, you‘d still be the cutest dog I’ve seen!”
“Enough!” Brittany stomped her feet like a little kid.
“All right, all right. We won‘t talk about that anymore. Can you let go of me now?” She looked down at
the hand that was holding lier wrist.
“No. What if you run away?”
Arianna laughed. “This is my house. Where can I run? I want to go upstairs to change out of my
clothes. You‘ve stained my clothes, yet, you don‘t want to get me a new pair. Now, you‘re not even
letting me change into something more comfortable.”
Brittany understood what she meant and hurriedly let go of her hand.
However, even after she let go, Arianna was not in a hurry to leave. “Do you want to come with me?
Your clothes are dirty as well. You can borrow some of mine first.”
Hearing this, Brittany glanced down at the stain on her chest. It was stained, so she did not refuse and
followed Arianna to her room.
Arianna changed out of her stained clothes and passed another set of fresh clothing to Brittany. Once
she changed into Arianna‘s clothes, Arianna pulled Brittany‘s hair back and turned her head to face the
mirror. “Look at how beautiful you are!”
As Brittany looked at herself in the mirror, she noticed how her eyes twinkled and her pearly white teeth
shone. Although her eyes swelled from crying, it did not affect her beauty. In fact, she looked pitiful. So
why did Alexander not like her?
Her eyes immediately reddened at the thought of this, and she could not stop the tears that rolled down
her cheeks,
“Look at you.” Arianna reached out to hold Brittany‘s chin and said, “You‘re so pretty. Why are you
overthinking so much?”
“I am pretty, but why doesn‘t he like me? What exactly does he like?” Brittany muttered herself.
“That‘s where you‘re wrong!” Arianna exclaimed as she squeezed Brittany‘s chin.
Brittany frowned from the pain and raised her head to look at Arianna. However, Arianna was focused
on her reflection in the mirror. “Brittany, do you know where you went wrong?”
Brittany shook her head.
“You‘re focusing too much on him! You put yourself so far from the pedestal that he can‘t even see
you!”
“H-He can‘t see me?” Brittany blinked and noticed the confusion in her own eyes through the mirror.
‘What is she talking about?‘
“Yeah! Don‘t you know that men love the chase? Yet, you keep sending yourself to his doorstep,
always ready to serve and ensure he’s okay. What are you doing? Is he looking for a babysitter? Does
he need a servant?” Every sentence from Arianna pierced Brittany’s heart, making her frown unhappily.
“I just want him to see the good in me.”
“If you want him to see the good in you, you shouldn‘t be doing all that. Brittany, you should chase your
own happiness!” Arianna advised as she took Brittany‘s hand and squeezed it tightly.
