Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 2535

Thalia's prompt and blunt response left Alicia momentarily speechless, but she quickly regained her composure.

"You must think him letting you deal with me is proof of his devotion to you," Alicia said, her tone growing increasingly confident, "but if two people truly love and trust each other, he wouldn't need to prove anything at all.

"I've looked into your story. Everyone says Mr. Jensen is deeply in love with you, that even during all those years you were missing, there was never another woman by his side. I believe you two must've shared something very deep once.

"But feelings… They're never certain. If you had stayed missing, maybe even disappeared forever, he would've actually cherished your memory for a lifetime—kept you as this untouchable, irreplaceable figure in his heart.

"But now that you've come back, everything's different."

Somehow, what was lost was always the most beautiful.

If Thalia hadn't disappeared for 18 years, Alicia believed their love would've long since worn down by the passage of time. Now that she had returned, the beauty of longing would be defeated by reality.

"Maybe he has feelings for you now because of the time you were gone, but after these two years, surely those feelings have faded. I may not have your life experience, but I have youth.

"No matter how old they are, men will always choose young women. That's something I have over you. You might be able to deal with me today on his behalf, but what about the next woman who throws herself at him?

"Can you handle every single one for him? Doesn't a life like that sound exhausting to you?"
