Chapter 78

• Alden acknowledges that his relationship with Regina can indeed be considered close. Since their teenage years, they have often spent time together until they understood each other's habits. However, it needs to be emphasized that Alden and Regina's closeness is nothing more than a close relationship as friends or, let's say, as siblings.
• From the beginning, Alden wasn't interested, let alone falling in love. Even if Regina admitted liking him since forever, Alden truly didn't care. Moreover, how could he forbid or limit someone else's feelings towards him?
• That's why, at the dinner event yesterday, he immediately gave a firm response. He firmly rejected Riana's small talk about matchmaking him with Regina. It didn't matter if he was considered rude. What mattered was that he wouldn't give any room, let alone false hope, to a woman he clearly didn't love.
