When Monica heard him, she felt like a knife had stabbed her heart.
“I think Monica loves you.”
“Maybe, but that’s not important anymore.”
“Actually, you can fight for it.” Jeanne was trying her best to set them up.
“I have.” Finn said nonchalantly, “And that is why I told you not to waste your time.”
Jeanne pursed her lips.
From Finn’s tone, she could roughly tell that Finn had given up.
“No matter what, thank you.”
He thanked Jeanne because she understood him.
After that, he returned the phone to Monica.
Monica looked at Finn, who still did not spare her a single glance, and turned her head coldly to the window.
Then, she placed the phone back to her ear and said, “Jeannie.”
Jeanne, on the contrary, was silent.
She was exasperated just a moment ago. Although she could suppress her anger toward Monica and try to convince her with reason, she suddenly felt that there was nothing more to say.
Monica was determined to walk on the path of no return, and no one could stop her. Perhaps only when she hit a wall and got hurt would she know how stupid she was to take that path.
All of them were trying to persuade her, but it was useless.
In the end, Jeanne chose to compromise.
She believed everyone had to pay the price for their choices. Since Monica could not be convinced otherwise, she should face the consequences on her own.
Moreover, no one knew what kind of person Michael was.
If he liked Monica, being with him would still make Monica happy.
Jeanne admitted that she, herself, was also selfish. Between Finn and Monica, she would ultimately choose Monica.
As long as Michael was good enough for Monica, Monica’s life would not be too bad.
As for Finn, maybe he had thought it through.
Jeanne sighed.
Although she chose to side with Monica, she still felt helpless. She said, “Monica, I don’t support your decision to choose Michael, but I respect you. However, you must understand that if you do this, you’ll have to pay the price. If you choose Michael, your relationship with Finn will end. As the party involved, you may not understand, but as an outsider, we see it very clearly. If I can see it, Michael should also be able to see it, but he didn’t reject your help. You better understand this.”
