Chapter 1188


    "Then, I met Jordan. He meets all the requirements of my dream boyfriend. He’s rich, influential,


    and also good-looking. I believe I''ll be very happy if I’m with him and just need to focus on being


    sweetly in love every day. But after we got together, I realized what I expected is not quite the


    same."


    Seeing the troubled look on her face, I gently sighed. "Maybe you''re only thinking of it this way


    because your rtionship with Jordan has gone too smoothly. You thought that an outstanding man


    like him would take a long time to pursue, and you were prepared to feel sad or heartbroken in the


    process, but you didn''t experience any o f those things. You got together with him without a single


    obstacle. It feels unreal to you."


    After a pause, I continued, "Besides, Jordan has a cold demeanor. He rarely shares his feelings and


    bottles everything up. You think that he isn’t warming up to you enough. He''s interested in you, but


    you don’t think he really likes you.”


    "Yes!"


    Shannon’s eyes lit up. "You’re right. Before I made the decision to pursue him, I had mentally


    prepared myself to pursue him for a long time and be heartbroken. I didn''t expect him to be so


    easily won over. And with his cold demeanor, he’s always indifferent toward me, which makes me


    think that he''s only dating me because he’s lonely.


    ''It’s also because of this that I always feel like if I meet another man who is less outstanding than he


    is but loves me adequately, I''ll move on. The same applies t o him. If he meets another woman who


    takes the same initiative as me, then he''ll b e with that woman. There’s just no sense of security and


    belonging."


    Iughed. "Shannon, have you ever wondered if he would still be with you if it weren’t for your


    identity?”


    Shannon shook her head without a single hesitation. “Never."


    “Both of your familiese from equal backgrounds, which makes the two of you extremely


    compatible. Other women may only focus on the Fredericks'' riches and influence, coupled with


    Jordan''s already excellent qualities. That''s why they want to be with him. But he knows that you''re


    not. You simply like him for who he is, and you''re attracted to him as a person. I’m sure you know as


    well that he didn''t choose to be with you because of your superior family background but because


    he simply likes you."


    Thinking about Theo, I continued with a smile, "The love of some men may not feel passionate


    enough, but if you look closely, you''ll find that their love for you stems from their hearts.”

    "Really?" Shannon was a little unsure.


    "There’s nothing I can do if you don''t believe it now. Only time can tell."


    Shannon gently sighed. "I''ll just take it slow, then."


    She nced at the time and asked, "When d o you n to go back?" "I’m not going back." I had no


    idea what time Jordan would finish his work. I was not going to leave her here by herself.


    "What do you want to have for dinner?"


    Shannon frowned. "Won''t Theo get angry if you don''t go home?"
