"Ah, Rebecca." Lady Octavia sighed, her tone full of regret, "If you were my daughter-in-law, everything would be so much better. I wouldn't have to worry about all these things. You're so wonderful, so exceptional, why doesn't Ashton just..."
"Lady Octavia, feelings can't be forced. I'm very happy that you like me so much, but..." Rebecca's voice gradually lowered, and her tone became desolate.
Upon hearing Rebecca's words, Lady Octavia panicked, thinking that she was giving up: "Rebecca, you, you don't want to like Ashton anymore? Are you planning to give up?"
Rebecca was silent for a while before speaking in a dejected tone: "Lady Octavia, it's not that I want to give up, but I have no choice. I've been thinking a lot lately. Ashton is married now, and he's happy. I shouldn't hold any hopes for him anymore. It's best for everyone if I let go."
"No, Rebecca..." Lady Octavia was somewhat flustered, "You can't give up. Didn't I say I would think of a solution for you?"
