A Relentless Pursuit for Love novel Chapter 526

Chapter 526

There was a bombing case in the suburbs of Nadeem City. Three people died in the car that was burned to the ground.

The police intervened and investigated the crime scene. The clues led them to Sage and Laura, who were currently both in the hospital.

Sage and Laura cooperated with the police’s investigation and was told to share what happened. Then, the police opened an official case for investigation.

As a result, the club was shut down. Sage felt sorry for Henry knowing that she played a role in that.

Hunter flew from Salem City to Nadeem City as soon as he heard about Sage’s accident. He even brought Leah along too. Seeing Hunter and Leah show up together, Sage knew they must have made up. Sage even gave Hunter a good lecture in front of Leah for good measure. Hunter dared not to argue and obediently listened to the lecture. “Yes, it’s my fault. I promise I won’t do it again.” Sage wanted to continue on, but Leah quietly pulled her sleeve and gave a cue to stop. “You’re being too nice. He might bully you more in the future if you end up being liek this.” The motherly side of Sage wanted to spoil and protect the girls in her family. She would never allow anyone to bully them.

“Hunter didn’t bully me. Anyway, I was just being too sensitive.”

Leah reflected on herself. “I know Hunter has been busy with work lately. He had to deal with Jefferson Group too. He hasn’t slept much for days. Before this, he told me that he’d be busy for an extended period. I understood the consequences of that, but… It’s just that…”

“You just can’t stand him not being by your side, right? You felt like he’s ignoring you and neglecting you, right?”

Leah just could not admit those words out loud, so Sage said it for her.

Leah kept her head down. “Maybe I’m just feeling silly. I always think that I’m not good enough for him. I can’t help him with his troubles, and I end up becoming more of a burden to him. I want to be more understanding, but I can’t stop overthinking that… maybe Hunter should find a better woman.”

Leah nodded in agreement. “I heard of this from a classmate in love too. I didn’t know what it was like until I experienced it myself. It seems to be true… But, what should I do?”

“There’s nothing you can do about it,” Sage explained faintly, “Love happens because of hormonal stimulation. To put it bluntly, it’s a chemical reaction of the body. This reaction is cyclical and time-sensitive. It may last but not forever. It all depends on the attraction between the two parties. If they can maintain their attraction, they’ll be able to maintain the relationship for a long time.”

Leah listened in awe. “What can I do about it?” “You’d have to constantly prioritize your self-worth and be more mentally resilient.”

Sage spoke like she was an expert on love, but she was just speaking from her own experience.

“Leah, you don’t have to feel inferior and constantly worry about your relationship. Trust yourself. You’re capable and deserve to be loved! It’s good to have a partner you can rely on, but you shouldn’t lose yourself in the relationship. No matter what happens, don’t rely on others too much. When you’re not afraid of losing him, you’ll be an unstoppable force.” Listening to Sage, Leah felt like her wise words were better than reading tons of books.
