Chapter 494: Chapter 494: The Truth About Staying Unmarried (5)

It wasn’t fair that this man could now peacefully enjoy his marriage and happiness, while her sister had to bear the torment of longing all by herself.

All these years, Selina had been by Phoebe Miller’s side, helping those in need. Selina didn’t think Phoebe was completely immersed in longing for Bryan Cooper. Admittedly, she knew that Phoebe would sometimes daydream and be silent, but for those like them, who chose not to marry, love wouldn’t be everything.

But unable to resist Felicia Miller’s request, and with some friendship between herself and Bryan Cooper, Selina eventually came to the Hawkins Family.

She didn’t dare tell Phoebe Miller about her decision to visit Bryan Cooper beforehand; if Phoebe found out, she might come back from Africa straight away.

"What would you like to drink?" Bryan Cooper asked Selina. He had missed the morning meeting, and there was a pile of documents on his desk.

"Coffee, please." Selina didn’t stand on ceremony, knowing that Bryan Cooper was very busy, she got straight to the point. "I agreed to Felicia’s request to discuss Phoebe’s situation with you. Felicia is Phoebe’s twin sister."

"I see," Bryan Cooper nodded. "Is she still very busy?"

"Not really, everything at the Miller Family is running well, so there’s no need for her to personally go to Africa this time." Selina looked at him. "The night before the party, Phoebe probably saw you with your wife."

This was her guess, but she thought it must be pretty accurate.

"..." Bryan Cooper didn’t speak, but he thought Selina must have more to say. She had already sent him a text message and called him before, but hearing this news now didn’t have much impact on him anymore.

"Felicia and Phoebe, the two sisters, were born with defects. Felicia has a heart problem and had undergone heart bypass surgery as a child. Phoebe has a congenital uterine malformation and is infertile. Felicia believes that the reason Phoebe decided to remain unmarried after being in love with you is because of her infertility, not because she genuinely wanted to remain unmarried."

This was Felicia Miller’s opinion, not Selina’s, so she naturally mentioned Felicia when discussing the matter. Felicia was a straightforward person who always had her sister’s best interests at heart and didn’t want to hurt anyone.

Before coming here, Selina had already told Felicia that even if the real reason for Phoebe’s decision to remain unmarried was her infertility, it wouldn’t change the relationship between them.

Felicia was rational enough to know that she didn’t expect the two to return to their previous romantic relationship; she just wanted this man to know the sacrifices her sister had made for him.

"That’s her idea, what about you? As a fellow unmarried person and Phoebe’s good friend, do you think that’s the real reason she decided not to marry?" Bryan Cooper asked Selina.

"..." Selina had always known that Bryan Cooper was intelligent, and this time she truly experienced his remarkable ability to analyze people. "I think this might be a part of the reason she left you. Phoebe might have known about her infertility just as early as Felicia did. Even knowing this, she still chose to fall in love with you, so I think she truly loved you. However, she had already accepted that the two of you would only ever be in a romantic relationship and not get married."

So, even if Phoebe Miller carefully planned their meeting this time, it was because Bryan Cooper had previously announced that he, too, would not marry. Then, after these busy years, she thought that when both their careers were steady, if Bryan Cooper was still firm in his decision not to marry and have children, they could keep each other company for the rest of their lives.
