"Accept me for who I am… can a married woman think of that?" Catherine muttered.
"Huh? What do you mean?" Veronica looked at her.

"But my question is… for what cost? If you throw away the career you worked so hard for and then sacrifice all your wishes for the sake of your husband and children, what will you get in return?
"It will be great if you can get their devotion and love for you but most women are treated worthless. That's the problem. If that's what happens, it would be better not to sacrifice anything at all."
