Chapter 343 The Confession Failed
He rejected her bluntly and decisively, but Olivia’s voice became increasingly choked up, “I can provide myself with stability and security. Who is suitable for dating? Who is suitable for marriage? Isn’t it something we find out through gradual interaction and adjustment? You reject me without even thinking, is it because you already have someone you like?”
Olivia asked this question very carefully.
After a moment of silence in the air, Alexander’s voice came, “No.”
Seemingly sensing Alexander’s coldness, Olivia’s voice gradually steadied as well, voicing out, “So, you simply don’t like me, right?”
“No.” Alexander was clearly a bit frustrated, “You’re great, that’s not what I meant.”
The noise at the stairway quieted down for about half a minute. I couldn’t see the expressions of the two, so naturally, I didn’t know the specific situation. However, I did figure out that Alexander had rejected Olivia.
After a while, Olivia’s voice came from the stairway, “Thank you for telling me this, I understand now.”
Alexander gave a slight nod, seeming to have breathed a sigh of relief.
Hearing footsteps, I felt a bit guilty, worried about being discovered, and forced myself to hide behind a pillar. I really didn’t mean to eavesdrop, it was truly an accident.
If the two of them had seen me here, they would probably have died of

embarra*sment.
Listening to the footsteps fading away, I stepped out from behind the pillar, let out a slight sigh of relief, glad that I hadn’t bumped into
anyone.
“Were… were you eavesdropping just now?” A voice came from behind. I stiffened, slowly turned around, and met Olivia’s somewhat reddened eyes, obviously caused by crying earlier.
Looking at her, I forced out a stiff laugh, “Hehe, you… how come you’re here?”
She hadn’t recovered from her emotions yet, walked up to me and said, “Didn’t you hear everything just now, Tabatha? That was very rude of vou.”
I awkwardly panicked and helplessly said, “Would you believe me if I said, I really didn’t mean to eavesdrop?”
She sighed, nonchalantly saying, “It doesn’t matter anymore, just don’t make fun of me.”
I quickly shook my head, “No, why would I make fun of you? You’re quite brave.” Confessing your feelings without knowing the other person’s thoughts, even if you were rejected, was exceptionally brave.
She leaned against the railing, watching the snowflakes fluttering outside, and pursed her l*ps, saying, “What kind of courage is this? It’s more like recklessness.”
I was not very good at comforting people, especially in cases of failed confessions of love. After some thought, I said, “No, there are no set rules when it comes to feelings. If you like him, just tell him. That’s perfectly normal. If he doesn’t like you, that’s okay. You’re beautiful and talented, and a good person. If he misses out on you, it’s his loss.”

“PM!” She couldn’t help but laugh, her crescent-shaped eyes looking at me as she said, “Tabatha, your words of comfort are so old-fashioned.”
I gave a bitter smile, truly, I was not good at comforting people.
She watched the snowflakes outside, catching a few in her palm. As she watched them slowly melt, she withdrew her soft, snow-white hand and said, “Yes, I’m not lacking, he won’t harm me, I won’t give up, no matter what the final result is, I have to try to know.”
“Huh?” I was a bit confused, looking at her without understanding, “You…”
She grinned at me and said, “I’m still going to pursue him.”
I was a bit panicked. The most terrifying thing in this world is an indifferent person, a relentless entanglement. This kind of emotion is the most frightening. The lightest consequence is the loss of dignity, the heaviest could lead to obsession. After all, in these past years, there have been no shortage of supporting female characters in TV dramas and novels who have gone crazy for love.
I gathered my thoughts and looked at Olivia, saying, “Olivia, love is not the only thing in life. Liking and loving are roughly the same. If we can’t have it, we don’t necessarily have to destroy it. We should allow flowers to bloom, and also accept that they may not bloom for us.”
After hearing me talk so much, Olivia twisted her little face, holding back her laughter as she looked at me and said, “Tabatha, what are you talking about, what’s this about ruining and not ruining?”
I forced a smile, somewhat embarra*sed, and said, “Alexander isn’t really a bad person, he just doesn’t love you. That doesn’t make him your enemy. Besides, relationships between people aren’t just about love, they can also be friendships or even familial bonds.”
