Chapter 113: Your Happiness

"I want you to be happy... all I want is your happiness, Cedric would have wanted you to be happy too"

My eyes trembled, does he want me to be happy too? Does he want me to marry Emperor Lawrence? Was that my fate? To lose the man I love and be married to another I have no feelings for? Was this really the fate of a Silver-haired to outlive a life decided by others, to be whisked away to marriage whenever they saw fit?

Why did goddess Yelena create such a fate for Silver-Haired, why did she want us to be subjected to decisions that weren't ours to make, to put duties before feelings, laws before love, and partners before soulmate.

All this, my lips pressed thin. It didn't seem like she wanted any of this. I looked at myself in the mirror, staring at my sad features. Who are you to say that Sylvia... it's not like I knew goddess Yelena... then how? How did I know that this was never what she wanted?
