"Monica, you're not bad either. You love me so much and have done a lot for me. In terms of emotions and reason, I owe you an explanation. So, I've decided to compromise with you and live like this for the rest of my life. We will get married, have children, and live a mundane life. After all, we're all adults, and we know that everyone in the world is realistic. Love in fairy tales is all a lie."

I laughed at myself.

"So, the marriage I have been looking forward to is just a reluctant and perfunctory act for Henry?"

"But I didn't expect Alana to suffer outside. My princess is back! I can't stand by and be an onlooker indifferently! If I ignore Alana, I will betray my youth and my dreams, right? Alana is in trouble, and she comes to me first. If I turn her down indifferently, I will let down Alana's trust in me, right?"

Henry suddenly became excited.

"So, I must do something! I know I'm a scumbag! I've been struggling and agonizing! I don't want to let down Alana, nor do I want to hurt you! But there's no such thing as having the best of both worlds in the world. After several sleepless nights, I finally figured it out!"
