Listening to the Field Marshal, Wyatt understood that the Southern Princess had targeted Susan since the time he started to show feelings for Susan. Hence, the results of her schemes were slowly surfacing now. After all, things like this donʼt happen in a span of a day. They need a lot of planning and time, which is very similar to marinating a brisket.

Wyatt believed that the Southern princess mostly did this to make sure even if Anna were unable to win his heart, no one else would. Leaving him with one less reason to reject the Royal familyʼs proposal for an arranged marriage between him and Anna.

However, when it became clear Wyatt had feelings for both Anna and Susan, she continued her plan with twice the effort but with a different goal in mind. To trap Wyatt using Anna. Knowing Annaʼs love for Wyatt and hatred for her, Southern Princess knew her daughter would never help her manipulate Wyatt. Therefore, she had Field Marshal use Annaʼs origin card to erase Annaʼs feelings for Wyatt.

Seeing Wyatt was contemplating based on the information she gave, the Field Marshal continued, ”Based on my experiences, my niece will continue to use the media to attack Susanʼs will until one fine day when Susan is at her weakest. She will offer Susan a career opportunity that she cannot reject.

However, this career-making opportunity will be somewhere far from you. Considering Susanʼs love for you and her mental state, at that moment, she will most likely accept my nieceʼs life-changing offer wanting to remove herself from your life so that she would no longer be a burden to you. With Annaʼs feelings for you erased and Susan walking out of your life, you will be at your lowest. Then she will appear in front of you proposing an arranged marriage between you and her daughter. Throwing her bait into the water.

Considering that your situation then would be like a man drowning in his tears, you will mistake her bait for a lifebuoy and willingly swim into her trap blinded by your sorrow. Thinking even though you could reignite Annaʼs feeling for you through the arranged marriage. Till the end, without even showing her shadow or getting her hands dirty, my niece would have gotten exactly what she wanted”

Revealing what she thought her niece might be planning to Wyatt, the Field Marshal felt a huge weight was lifted off her chest. However, when her intent sense sensed the space inside the dungeon seal starting to connect to the space inside the seed world, she immediately mobilized her space rule to stop Wyatt from entering the seed world.

”Field Marshal, what is the meaning of this?” being obstructed from entering the seed world by the Field Marshal, Wyatt questioned her aloud with a gaze that conveyed that he would kill her if she did not give him a proper explanation.

Understanding why Susan rejected his request to date him officially, Wyatt wanted to return to the seed world and assure her that she was more than worthy of him and never a burden to him but an inspiration and hope. He wanted to solve all her doubts about their relationship and future together and get her to date him officially. However, the Field Marshal stopped him from doing so. Hence, his rage almost exploded at her.

”I am doing this to stop you from making the situation worse than it already is. If my guess is right, you plan to tell her that you donʼt think she is unworthy of you, she is not a burden to you, and that you do not care what the rest of the world thinks? Donʼt you think she already knows this?

This is a matter of heart and will, you cannot fix it for Susan. She has to do it herself. Girls like Susan are special, they do not know how to be selfish. They find joy in otherʼs happiness, someone like that will never build their future at the expense of othersʼ future.

The more you try to console her by saying things like ʼyou donʼt care about what the world thinksʼ or ʼyou will face the world for herʼ or ʼyou will face the world togetherʼ the more Susan will blame herself and walk toward my nieceʼs trap. Just like how you want to protect and give all the happiness in the world to your beloved, Susan too wants to protect and give all the happiness in the world to her beloved. She would not like to see you make enemies with the world for her. She would rather sacrifice her love for you so that you live a long happy and peaceful life. Donʼt underestimate a womanʼs love.”

The Field Marshal got emotional as she spoke these words, surprising Wyatt. He did not think the Field Marshal had such a good impression of Susan especially when Susan was her grandnieceʼs love rival. Now, Wyatt was confused, he could not figure out who the Field Marshal was rooting for, Anna or Susan. Soon, it hit him, she wasnʼt rooting for Anna or Susan but for him.

Understanding where the Field Marshal was coming from, Wyatt calmed down and decided not to act hastily in matters of heart. Yet, he could not help but ask her, ”Donʼt you think me telling her what I think would be better than me assuming she knows what I think and doing nothing?” ”Usually, your approach would be correct. But not this time as the problem this time around is not you or your relationship with Susan but Susanʼs personal insecurities that have been magnified by my nieceʼs schemes.

Susan has a lot of things that she avoided by hiding them at the bottom of her heart until my nieceʼs schemes resurfaced them back to the top. She needs to deal with her doubts and insecurities thoroughly if she wants a future with you because if she becomes your partner she will be the target of such mind games frequently on a regular basis.

People will target her for every little thing. She canʼt just pause her life over very such incidents. Even you cannot stop people from speaking their minds and attacking her verbally. She needs to be strong enough to brush them off and the only way that would be possible is for her to deal with her insecurities.

You have to remember, this is her journey, neither you nor I can help her on this one because this is not a physical injury but a mental and emotional one. When it comes to the matter of hearts, one can only wait patiently and hope for the best!
