Chapter 410 - Do you love him? (2/2)

”Let's go. We cannot let them wait,” she said finally. She finished the last gulp of coffee before stood up.

Mei Li quickly followed her as she went out of the restaurant.

Mei Li led the way to the car. Ryn watched as her manager thrust the key into the keyhole.

”Calm down. We won't be late,” Ryn said. She leaned to rummage the storage in front of her before she took out a scrunchie. ”Tie your hair. Take a deep breath.”

Mei Li did what she was told. She gathered her curls and tied them into a rather messy ponytail. She looked in the mirror and sighed unhappily. Why when Ryn did her hair in a messy ponytail, she looked gorgeous but when she did the same, it looked, well, messy.

God really treated them with biased eyes.

Sigh.

”Are you feeling better now?” Ryn c.o.c.ked her head to her right side and asked.

”Hmm... Let's go,” Mei Li started the engine and changed the gear. No more time to waste.

Ryn threw her sight out of the window and did not utter a word. Her mind kept repeating the words she had with her mother earlier.

”Mother...”

”Maybe I cannot truly understand what you feel because your father and I never face this kind of argument but honey, ask yourself this,” her mother said finally after being silence for several minutes. She told her mother what happened and asked for her mother's opinion.

”What, mother?” Ryn asked slowly as she brushed the tears from her face.

”Do you love him?” Her mother asked.

Ryn's mouth opened to answer but she did not know how... what kind of answer to give to this seemingly simple question. Her eyes stared at the wall, blinking.

”I know that he can be quite pushy and very-very annoying but...” her mother was not blind to Jeremy's bad attitude but everything was based on Ryn. She did not want to force her daughter and wanted her to decide her own life.

”But he expected me to allow him to control me,” Ryn cried unhappily. She hated when he decided to dictate what she should and shouldn't do. She has her own mind!

”Do you think he can change that?” Her mother asked.

Ryn closed her mouth. Could he change? Would he change?

”If you think he can change for the better, for the sake of both of you, give him another chance. Perhaps he will learn to be more... lenient and less forceful.”

”But...”

”But if you think he won't do it, even for the sake of your future, then, make a clean break. Don't torture yourself and him when you yourself don't think it will work.”

Ryn pursed her lips.

”Love is a beautiful thing, my dear, but people are the ones who make it difficult.”

Ryn sighed. It actually made her miss the young Jeremy when they first started their relationship. It was so pure that she imagined it would be this one until death do them apart.

She wished Jeremy would stay like he used to. She hated the present Jeremy who was short tempered and expected her to obey his every word.

She really missed him.

”Take your time to decide but not too long. Everyone knows your relationship with him so...” her mother's words trailed off, giving Ryn a hint.

Ryn sighed heavily. She understood what her mother meant. It no longer involved only her and Jeremy bit Jeremy's family too.

And this decision not only impact her and Jeremy but their family.

Sigh...
