Chapter 317 What Will You Do from Now On, Eva?
"W-What?! I'm not pathetic, Mom! I tried, okay? But he just won't budge. It's not my fault." Eva argued back as she tried to calm down and stop crying.
"Bullshit! Stop acting like such a helpless cry baby! You're better than that." Sasha shouted back at her. "Listen to me. This is what I think of the matter. Either you do whatever it takes to make him give in, even if you have to use underhanded means to do it, or you break up with that bastard immediately. If he can't understand how precious and amazing his woman is and that he should cherish and treasure her, then why would you stay with him in the first place? It makes no sense."
"H-He's not like that!" Eva exclaimed, trying to defend her boyfriend. "James is a great guy who always treats me with kindness and respect. He always makes sure I'm comfortable and happy whenever we go on dates, and he even takes the time to help me with my problems whenever he can..."
"But he doesn't give you the physical attention and affection that you want. He refuses to touch you and only thinks about his family's stupid rules and traditions. And if he's already forcing his views on you, what do you think will happen once you two decide to marry?" Sasha interrupted her daughter, making Eva's blood run cold at those words. "Tell me. What do you expect will happen then? That he'll change? That he'll stop being such an uptight asshole and start being more understanding towards you and your wishes? Do you honestly believe that?"
"I..." Eva didn't know how to answer that question, so she fell silent, unable to say anything else.
"Let me tell you what will happen, my dear Eva." Sasha said with an amused tone of voice, which sent shivers down the young woman's back. "Once you get married, he will expect you to act like a proper housewife and stay at home to take care of the kids. You won't be able to work or have a life of your own, and if you wanted to go out with your friends, you would need his permission first. In other words... you'll end up becoming his submissive wife, living according to his wishes."
"I-I..." Eva didn't know what to say to that.
"Listen to your mother. Forget about James. Just throw him into the garbage bin where he belongs." Sasha spoke again, her tone softening a little as if trying to console Eva, "There are millions of fish in the sea, darling. So don't limit yourself to someone like him. If you keep wasting your time with a person like that, you will regret it; mark my words. You are too precious and unique to end up as an oppressed and abused housewife. You deserve better than that."
As Eva listened to her mother's advice, a small smile formed on her face, and she let out a soft chuckle. Even though she didn't want to accept what her mom had said, part of her knew it to be true.
Her mother was always right, especially when it came to these things. She had been through enough experiences to understand men and know how they think, so she would never steer her daughter wrong when giving her advice.
And she felt happy that even though Sasha could sometimes be a little too overbearing and demanding with her, the woman still loved her dearly. It showed in the way that Sasha would always be there to listen to her problems and offer a solution. She could count on her mom no matter what happened, which was why Eva felt grateful to have her in her life.
"It seems that you understood what I meant. So tell me, what will you do from now on, Eva?" Sasha asked, sounding confident that her daughter would do as she suggested. Your journey continues on My Virtual Library Empire
