She saw the pain in her motherâs eyes, but she really was not in the mood to eat right now.
After David stepped into Eternal Realm and became the Master of the Milky Way, he surpassed her family in terms of strength, identity, and status.
Astrid did not want this to happen.
Because if this were the case, the gap between her and David would grow.
âMother, I really have no appetite,â Astrid shook his head and said.
âAstrid, whatâs the matter with you? David just left to take care of some business, and he didnât say he wouldnât come back. If you donât eat now, your body will collapse before he comes back.â
âMother, in truth, I know this is just a oneâsided love. Although David saved me at the beginning, he only treated me as a friend. I originally thought that with my status as the princess of the Milky Way, I could change Davidâs mind slowly, but now that David has stepped into Eternal Realm, become Master of the Milky Way, and is much better than Father and Grandpa Wilfred, I donât know what to do,â Astrid said, feeling depressed.
âAstrid, donât have such thoughts. You have to be confident. You are one of the four fairies in the Milky Way, the princess of the Milky Way. You are the top in the Milky Way in all aspects. David just hasnât been in contact with you for a long time. As time goes by, I am sure he will like you back.â
âDo you think so?â Astridâs interest was piqued slightly.
âWell, of course! And considering how outstanding David is now, doesnât it prove that your taste is exceptional? Who doesnât want their man to be at the center of attention? Thatâs what your father was like back then and thatâs what attracted me. Your taste is even better than mine. David is so excellent now, so you should be happy.â Seeing Astridâs interest, Gamora immediately added.
The situation with Astrid during this time was really worrying.
She did not eat or drink. She was always depressed and had no interest in anything.
No one could get her to listen.
âMother, honestly, I donât want David to become so excellent. I hope that he will be more ordinary so that my chances of being together with him will be greater. I like him not because I have good taste and can predict his achievements today. Even if he becomes a cripple right now, I will still like him and wonât give up on him.â
Gamora looked at Astrid helplessly.
âSigh, this girl is too far gone and thereâs no cure anymore.
âThe key is with Davidâs current strength and status. Who can control him?
âWho will dare to object to what he says?
âMy husband aside, the Barlowe family will not be his opponent even if they combined all of their strength. âIf David really doesnât like Astrid.
âThen this relationship will be a dead end and there will be no solution.â
âSigh, Astrid, no matter what you think, you should eat something! I believe David wonât want to see you like this. If he finds out when he comes back, he will be unhappy. You have to take care of yourself and wait for him to come back. After that, you should work hard to pursue your own happiness. I believe my Astrid is no worse than anyone else.â
âI got it, Mother. Thank you. You should go out first! I want to be alone for a while. Donât worry, I will eat later,â Astrid said.
âNo, Iâll eat with you,â Gamora refused.
âMother, can you just leave me alone for a while, please?â Astrid begged.
Gamora wanted to refuse, but when she saw Astridâs pleading eyes, she sighed in her heart and said, âOh Thatâs fine! I will go out first, but you must eat something later.â
âYes, I got it, Mother,â Astrid replied.
Gamora stood up and left Astridâs room slowly.
After she left, Astrid did not eat anything. Instead, she turned to continue to look out of the window dazedly.
She murmured, âDavid, where are you now? When are you coming back? Or are you never coming back? Do you know thereâs someone here who misses you so much that she canât eat or sleep? I know you only treat me as a friend, but what choice do I have? Whenever I close my eyes, I see you in my head. Youâre the first man I ever liked in this life and you will be the last. I promise.â
