Anastasia realized that she never really changed.
Even though all the memories she got so far were already pointing out to a tragic and bitter end, she still wanted to see it through. No matter how many tears she had already shed during the whole time she's reading her diary, she continued to push through and did not bat her eyes away from the pages.
Though it's true that not knowing the truth works for the better sometimes, her case is telling her that it's not really about what's good and bad. Rather, it should be about what's right and wrong.
She's always seeking for the truth - even when it ended up breaking her heart many times, crushing her hopes, smashing her spirits to smithereens, and worst of all, leading her to her ultimate downfall.
That's why after finding a lead with the use of a phrase of words written on her diary's last entry, she pounced on it almost immediately.
Hello, everyone!
Just wanna say that please, don't be confused with the italicized text. I used italics on the flashbacks this time because these were taken from previous chapters. As for the other flashbacks that the female lead got from reading her diary, they were not italicized because they're new information and hadn't been in any previous chapter ^___^ That's all! Thanks!
