Capítulo 24: Betrayal is Instinct, Loyalty is Choice

Cynthia shook her head slightly. "It's all my fault."

She knew deep down that even if Tristan Ford hadn't appeared, she would still have fallen seriously ill. After all, how many people could withstand the double blow to their body and heart?

Cynthia had always believed that the childhood trauma she had experienced had forged an impenetrable wall around her heart. But when the person she loved the most betrayed her, she found it difficult to bear the heart-wrenching pain.

The old lady could clearly see the desolate expression on Cynthia's face. She tightly held her hand and said slowly, "Human beings are always greedy. When they have one thing, they start thinking about another. They are never satisfied. That's why betrayal is instinct, but loyalty is choice. What belongs to you will be with you even if you let go, and what doesn't belong to you should be let go early. The power of choice has always belonged to oneself."
