Bab 459: Chapter 459

'Should I just cancel the meeting, or... should I talk to Shailene about this?' Dorothea pondered. 

She thought she could get much-needed advice from Shailene, especially about her changing views. She knew it was abrupt, but Vincent's action shook her to the core, making her feel so much worse, and the guilt was eating her from the inside.

'Though, so far, Shailene always told me to try to reconnect with Vernon. I don't think anything good would come if I try to reconnect with him….' 

Dorothea was unsure about that piece of advice from Shailene. She was a good listener, but her advice was consistently ineffective, mainly because Dorothea refused to talk with Vernon. 

She was too prideful and embarrassed, thinking of her past sins. It was much easier to keep up with the animosity between her and Vernon rather than trying to be nice to each other.
