A Ruling Passion – Chapter 1484

Sylvain frowned. “In your eyes, do you really think that your own country can’t compare to the country you’re married to? I truly don’t find the overseas to be all that great.”

Ursula laughed. “I didn’t mean it like that. Are you trying to say that I’m disloyal to my own country? It’s merely because I’ve grown accustomed to the overseas lifestyle. Syl, have you called me out to tell me that you’ve changed your mind? Will you be leaving with me?”

Sylvain pursed his lips and mustered up the courage to say, “I’m sorry, mom, but I really can’t go with you. I like it here, and I have a job that I’m passionate about and a person whom I want to spend the rest of my life with. Could you please consider my situation once in a while? I won’t blame you anymore for abandoning me and marrying someone else without even contacting me all these years, since that was your choice. All I ask is that you don’t use me as one of your leverages in your marriage. Whether or not you’re able to maintain your marriage has got nothing to do with me, it’s all on you. We’re all adults and we need to be responsible for ourselves. I’ve never asked you to do anything for me, so you shouldn’t be projecting your wishes onto me either. You should stop wasting more time and just leave.”

Ursula could not smile any longer. She could not continue to force him to do as she wished thanks to his peaceful attitude. Ursula smacked her dry lips and did not say anything for a moment. She did not put on any makeup on purpose so that she could look a little more tired than usual. However, her little tactics did not seem to be able to make Sylvain show any sympathy for her.

After a while, she half-heartedly asked, “Will it not bother you even if your mom wouldn’t be able to live on because of this? Syl, are you sure that you’re fine with this?”
