She had always been a spoiled girl who grew up without suffering much hardship. It was only encountering this man that left her reluctant, hateful, resentful, and even pained to part ways.
She didn't know how to make herself feel better. She wanted to break free from this utterly hopeless relationship, but she knew that as long as she stayed by his side, she'd never be able to escape for the rest of her life.
So even though she couldn't bear to leave, she still wanted to leave him.
She couldn't bear the agony of continuing like this anymore.
"...I'm so miserable, Rufus. Being with you is of course joyful, but as soon as I think that the person in your heart isn't me, I can't bring myself to feel happy anymore." She choked on her words, opening up to him honestly. "You said your love for Norris Moore is selfless, but I'm not like you. I hope to have you, to have your heart belong to me. I'm selfish this way—I can't accept even the slightest deviation from it."
