When Snowy ended the call and looked back, she could see the look of disdain on Finn Taylor’s face. While he had all the right to do so, she couldn’t do the same.

The woman felt miserable, but she understood that she couldn’t afford to offend the man. Not only would she have to die if she did, but even her uncle and the entire family would be dragged down.

Lily hadn’t even understood the situation before her friend fell to her knees. “Mr. Taylor, I was wrong. I apologize for my words.”

‘How interesting and suave. She didn’t even hesitate.’

“Scram then.” Finn Taylor was ruthless and replied with only two words.

Yet, those two words were like a relief to Snowy. She understood that the man was letting the matter go.

Full of gratitude, she even kowtowed to the other before leaving.

Snowy’s 180-degree change confused her friend, and the latter asked, “What’s going on, Snowy?”

However, her friend didn’t reveal Finn Taylor’s true identity. She would simply be tempting fate if she were to reveal the man’s secret.

Finn Taylor then returned upstairs and chatted with Hunter Sullivan for a while before leaving.

When he returned home, he was about to open the door when another door opened.

Michelle Yeller stuck her head out. “You’re back, Mr. Taylor!”

Finn Taylor nodded.

“Erm… Can you help me fix my computer?”

“What, has it broken down?”

“I don’t know, but there’s something wrong with it. I tried tinkering with it but couldn’t fix it. I heard the security officer say that you were back, so I’ve been waiting for you. I hope I’m not bothering you.”

“That’s alright. Let me take a look.”

The moment he entered the house, he spotted Josie Meyer crying on the sofa. He remained silent since he didn’t even know what had happened.

He walked up to the computer and checked it.

Billionaires would simply get themselves new computers if theirs broke down. Nobody would try to fix their computers, much less do it themselves. They probably wouldn’t even know where the screws were, but Finn Taylor was different.

He had suffered much more than an average person since his childhood, so he had learned to be strong and independent.

He always had to rely on himself. If he didn’t put in enough effort, there would always be someone trying to drag him down.

As Finn Taylor tinkered with the computer, Josie Meyer’s cries only grew louder.

The man could no longer hold in his curiosity and asked Michelle Yeller, “What’s wrong?”

“Oh. She was a fan of a couple, but the woman got married to someone else.”

‘Er…’ Finn Taylor was at a loss for words. ‘I thought something major happened, but it’s nothing at all!’

“There are plenty of couples who love each other but can’t be together. If you were to cry for every one of them, you’d probably be crying for the rest of your life.”

Finn Taylor didn’t beat around the bush, and that was why many didn’t like hearing his words.

“What nonsense are you spouting? Do you know how much he loves her?”

“Tell me then.”

“He’s a three-time world champion in League of Legends and a two-time champion among all winners. He’s even won the regional title eight times! He won everything, yet he lost her. So what if he has those championship titles?”

Finn Taylor wanted to applaud Josie Meyer; the latter had been so invested in her monologue.

“Go on,” the man encouraged.

“I’m done.”

“Oh, just that? I thought it would be a very touching story. It’s just a man who has made it through his own efforts and thinks that their success will win a woman over? Josie, let me tell you something. Those two things have nothing to do with each other. Nothing else matters when it comes to love. Love comes from the heart.”

However, Josie Meyer didn’t agree. “No, I don’t think so. Don’t you think that people will like someone who’s outstanding, rich, and able to give them a better life?”

“Yes, that’s true. But don’t you realize that you said ‘like?’ Loving someone and liking someone are two completely different things. How should I put it? For example, others will always ask you if you’re satisfied or whether you like a guy after a blind date. However, they’ll never ask you if you love the man. Why? That’s because love has nothing to do with material items.”

‘Nothing to do with love?’ Josie Meyer felt as though she had been schooled today, and her opinions toward love had completely changed.

However, the one who had taught her this lesson was none other than the man she hated most—Timothy Taylor!

“Let me ask you another question then. Would a woman truly be happy with a rich man that she doesn’t love?”

“Why not?”

“Just because he has money? Do you think that couples who aren’t well-to-do have nothing to be thankful or happy about? Then, have you thought about why Romeo and Juliet died together?”

“That’s just a story. Things like that don’t happen in real life.”

“What if I told you that both would’ve ended their lives after finding out that their lovers were dead even in reality? They would’ve chosen to die together again if given the chance. What they had was pure love—something you’ll never understand.”

Finn Taylor’s words made Josie Meyer feel miserable because what she had believed in for the past 20 years was being attacked.

What she thought was love was nothing like love.

‘Love is so pure. Even when you’re at your lowest and everyone else looks down on you, your lover will be the only one on your side. I know this well because I’ve experienced it myself. I’ve been called a piece of trash for the past three years. Even though Yvette has always been fierce toward me on the surface, she’s always been on my side. During Joseph Larson’s birthday, she was the one who gave me money to get him a present so that I’d be able to win the old man over. Yet, I’ve been dragging her down for fear of implicating her.. It hasn’t been easy for Yvette over the past few years.’
