Sister Wei finished talking about everything, including that Ava Sterling had just left, and said it all.
After she finished, she said, "Madam, what should we do? Will the lady and sir argue?"
"I... should I do sothing? I’m really too worried."
Sister Wei, after speaking, was filled with anxiety, unable to calm down in the least.
Sharon Sheridan listened to Wei’s concerns, a smile in her eyes, a deep smile, as she kept walking forward, saying, "No need to worry."
"Huh?"
Sharon’s voice was utterly calm, so calm that there was not a hint of concern or urgency, if anything, it almost sounded... happy?
Happy?
Was Madam... happy? Could she have heard wrong?
Sister Wei was montarily unsure how to respond.
Sharon looked at the tall and lush green trees ahead, their branches and leaves thriving, full of life.
And at this mont, the lush green canopy and leaves, illuminated by the evening glow of sunset, were cloaked in a robe of twilight, taking on a different color, different shadows and light.
It was no longer unchanging; it had warmth in winter and coolness in sumr, reflecting all seasonal changes.
Sharon said, "They won’t argue."
"Ava and Poe won’t get into a fight."
Sharon declared this with absolute certainty, as if she had foreseen it, she was quite confident.
"But... but sir had that especially sad look when he left, even if... even if there is no argunt, I’m afraid the lady might say sothing that would hurt sir, and then... then sir would be very upset."
"Madam, you don’t know, the look on sir’s face when the lady said those things, it broke my heart, really sir was too hurt."
For Sharon’s certainty, Sister Wei felt imnsely surprised.
She thought after hearing what she had said, Madam would be nervous and anxious, but unexpectedly, she wasn’t, instead, she displayed emotions Sister Wei could never have anticipated.
Sister Wei was very doubtful of herself, questioned whether she hadn’t been clear enough, causing Madam to not realize the seriousness of the situation.
Listening to Sister Wei’s urgent recount, as if trying to replay the situation before her and make her believe that Poe Vaughn was really hurt, Sharon’s smile deepened, crinkling the wrinkles on her face, showing her delight.
Sharon’s expression left Yvette, who was following alongside her, full of amazent.
What good event was it that made Madam so delighted?
"Sister Wei, what kind of person do you think Poe is?"
The calm, steady words reached her ears, filled with reassurance, leaving Sister Wei montarily stunned, then she said, "Sir... sir is a particularly smart person, a particularly good person, also soone particularly trustworthy."
"In my heart, sir is the smartest person I’ve t, very capable, very likable."
Sharon’s smile instantly spread to her eyes, and she said, "Then do you think a person like Poe would be easily hurt by a few words from Ava?"
Instantly, Sister Wei was speechless.
She couldn’t speak.
Listening to a mont of silence on the phone, Sharon watched the sunset light piercing through the branches, casting dappled shadows on the plants below, and said, "Ava saying those words would indeed affect Poe’s emotions."
"Because Poe likes Ava, cares about Ava, and under these prerequisites, he naturally doesn’t want Ava to be afraid of him."
"But Ava is a different kind of girl; since childhood, she had no one to protect her, and though she had her grandmother’s love when she was young, often, the love of an old person without power is really limited and cannot shield her from all external harm."
"So, Ava lacks a sense of security, very difficult to trust soone. Moreover, her family background and her experiences made her understand the harshness and cruelty of reality too early."
"Poe married her, not in the right manner, using certain ans. Naturally, she doesn’t feel Poe cares for her, loves her. In her heart, Poe is rely a partner or a friend, not a lover."
"From Ava’s perspective, being afraid of Poe is normal."
Everyone’s experiences and situations are different, and naturally, those create different personalities.
As an observer, and also soone who has lived to such an age, Sharon fully understood when Sister Wei spoke.
She did not believe that there was anything wrong with Ava.
If you said Ava could quickly like Poe and completely trust him, love him in as short as two or three months, she would instead think there was sothing wrong with the child.
Why would it be wrong?
Because trusting soone too easily and giving your heart away too easily makes you easily controlled by others.
But Ava didn’t, and that’s precisely why she could reach her current heights.
If she were easily swayed and let soone take her heart away, then whatever that person said would go, she would never have reached this day.
She has her ideas, her bottom lines, knows what she wants to do. She may seem simple, without scheming, but she’s never foolish, she just doesn’t like all the conflict, and only does what she wants to do, and is very determined about it, nobody can stop her.
Isn’t it exactly this kind of her that Poe likes?
For a man, if a woman is too easy to get, what’s the point?
The two of them need to go through trials and tribulations to stay together for the long haul. Just like marriage, such a long journey will inevitably have ups and downs; it can’t always be smooth sailing.
Poe and Ava, they need to experience these things, friction, needing to gradually trust each other, gradually like each other, gradually accumulate feelings, only then can the relationship beco solid.
Just like building the foundation of a house, if the foundation is not well set, how can the house later be stable?
If you haven’t even learned to crawl, wanting to walk is rushing things too much.
Now the way Poe and Ava interact, she thinks it’s very good.
Moreover, she can clearly feel Ava’s changes toward Poe, her care for Poe.
Today, she actively inquired about Poe’s mother, which is an obvious sign that she cares.
Before, she talked to Ava about Poe’s mother, and Ava didn’t have today’s emotions; it could be said, before was perfunctory, today is sincere.
Ava having such changes is already extrely good for her.
Of course, as the one who fell in love first, Poe is bound to give more than Ava, and he will inevitably get hurt, which is unavoidable.
She feels for her grandson, but she won’t stop him, as children need to go through challenges and difficulties, otherwise, that would be harming him.
Poe may seem hurt today, and indeed is, but this hurt will never affect his rationality and judgnt.
He knows how to act moving forward.
If he wants to win soone, win that person’s heart, then he has to plan and strategize.
She believes Poe will take advantage of this opportunity and won’t just let it go easily.
Her Poe is extrely smart.
For him to suffer, there has to be a bigger payoff.
