The Woman From Hell
Chapter 837

Chapter 837

Cindy took a sip of water and said uneasily," Everyone's marriage is destined by God. If they like each other, then great; if they don’t, then it can't be forced. I don't wish to marry someone I don't like just for the sake of getting married."

"You’re right."

Quinn took her hand in a particularly intimate manner. "Reciprocated love is important because only then will the two of you live a happy life together. If love is unreciprocated, then it'll only result in marriage dissension and you’ll not be happy no matter what. If you find a man you're considering to marry in the future, both of you must be like Theo and Wanda. You must both love each other. No matter what conflict you face, you'll stay together. That's a marriage blessed by God."

The meaning behind her words was clear. It was a wake-up call for Cindy. She should not covet what was not hers. What was not hers would never be hers, and it was useless to force it.

Cindy was no fool. She could hear the implied meaning, and her expression fell completely.

However, after years of practice, she had grown a little. No matter how displeased she was, she did not

display it.

After taking a few bites, she decided to leave.

"My friends are still waiting for me, Quinn. I’ll leave you be, then. I'll visit you some other day."

Quinn did not want to make her stay either and said with a smile, "It's a deal, then. Don't forget your cousin when the time comes.” It was often hard to tell if an adult interaction was genuine or not.

Even if they were stabbing each other to the point where blood had formed a river, the words that came out of their mouths were still sweet and smiles remained plastered all over their faces.

Hypocrisy was the synonym for growing up.

When Cindy left, Quinn looked faintly at me. "You took so many years to deal with a love rival. I wonder why Theo even likes a useless person like you."

She had made a good point that I did not know how to retort all of a sudden.

After thinking about it for a very long time, I said, "Her parents sacrificed their lives to save Theo back then, s o Cindy is a responsibility and an obligation to him. H e can't leave her behind.”

She rolled her eyes at me and said exasperatedly," Just because he has to take responsibility and has an obligation to take care of her means he needs to take care of her forever? Even her parents wouldn't have been able to take care of her forever, right? Isn't she just trying to guilt-trip him? Back then when she was only in her 20s, she was already at the age where she should learn to be self- reliant. She's living off a man all day long. It's no different than selling herself off."

This was my first time witnessing Quinn's sharp tongue and the first time I heard her express her dissatisfaction with Cindy.

Although she was sharp-tongued, she was speaking the truth.

Even though Cindy's parents had saved Theo's life back then and Theo was responsible and obligated to take care of her to repay her parents' kindness, he did not have to take care of her for life.

After having our meal, Quinn had things to do. I had n o idea where else to go, so I planned to take a cab home. 1

When I walked out of the supermarket and saw Cindy, I was actually not that surprised.

She was hurt by Quinn's words, so she would surely find a way to return it all back to me.

"Wanda Lane, do you think you’re some kind of earthly treasure and everybody should like you?" She quickly walked up to me and said such a thing.
