Chapter 566
Feeling bad, Alice gave Elisa a hug and consoled her, ” Elisa, you should stop yearning for him since
Zachary’s married. He’s not the only good man on earth. You’ll find better men once you let go of him.
“You’re a great girl to me, Elisa. Don’t beat yourself up just because Zachary doesn’t like you. Take my advice. Forget Zachary. Your brother and I will find you a good man who is better suited for you and yours alone.
“I promise you will live happier than Zachary. It might not be all sunshine and roses for the woman to marry a stoic man like Zachary. Think about it. Who would want to be with an aloof man?”
Elisa bit her lips, refusing to shed tears.
Worried Elisa might draw blood from the furious biting, Alice ran her mouth about her husband. “Clive is an *sshole for making me a meanie bright early in the morning. Don’t do that, Elisa. You’ll only hurt yourself.
“Cry it out if you’re feeling sad. Cry it all out. I’m not an outsider. You’ll feel better after crying.
“How about I take you shopping? We’ll buy anything and everything you want. Why don’t you look for a fun time with your friends?”

“I have a fiery temper. Plus, I’m willful. No wonder Zachary doesn’t like me.”
“No, Elisa. You’re a nice girl. I admire your character. It’s just not meant to be as Zachary doesn’t reciprocate your feelings. It’s okay. Your Mr. Right must be out there somewhere, waiting for you. He’ll soon find his way to you once you take your eyes away from Zachary.”
Elisa burst into laughter.
“Alice, you don’t have to rack your brains to find the
words to comfort me. My world would come
crumbling down if today was the day I found out
Zachary is married, but I discovered this earlier. I had not harassed him and stopped thinking about him for a while.
“Although I have not let him go completely, I have my pride. I can get over him now that he has a wife. I won’t take what’s not mine.
“He would be a man who can’t keep it in his pants and is disloyal to his marriage if he strayed away from his wife. I wouldn’t want to love a man like that.”
With Elisa laughing, Alice felt a little relieved. Alice reached out and lovingly ran her fingers down Elisa’s hair while uttering, “Do you know what I like most about you, Elisa? You’re a little willful and fiery, but you’re right-minded.”
