How could he be like this? Just because he couldn't win her over, he thought she had no right to date anyone else?
Bert answered Catherine with a bright, carefree smile.
"It's not that you can't date other men," he said. "But the prerequisite is that the man has to be better than me—stronger, more outstanding. Only then will I accept it."
"If he's not as good as me, then you might as well choose me."
After hearing that, Catherine was furious.
"People aren't objects you can compare like that! And love isn't about who has better conditions than who—the most important thing is whether you feel something!"
This man was truly domineering, selfish, and arrogant.
The moment Catherine finished, Bert immediately pinned her with a sharp, aggressive stare.
"Then can you look me in the eye and say you have no feelings for me? Not even the slightest bit?"
Catherine froze. Her eyes darted away, and she quickly shoved him aside.
"I need to go home. Goodbye."
