Rolling her eyes, Xavia then replied, “Is a heartbreak even that easily solved? If it is, you wouldn’t have leaped off that building back then.”
Gulping in response, Dolly then said, “H-how could you add salt on my wound…? Either way… After all that’s happened, I’ve truly moved on! I’ll never be a bootlicker in any of my relationships, ever again! Hell, I’ll probably be a scummier lover than Kevin ever could…!”
“Jokes aside, if you don’t want to become like me, you should stay true to your heart, yet simultaneously keep a little distance between you and him. Make him chase after you and give you attention, and be careful not to sink too deep to keep the relationship afloat…” concluded Dolly.
It was just too bad that she had to learn all this the hard way… Dolly had taken too much of an initiative, and she had loved way too hard… In the end, she was reduced to nothing but a toy for that man…
Either way, not wanting Dolly to continue being upset, Xavia quickly attempted to change the topic by saying, “…Regardless, it’s good that you’ve moved on… Also, how do you think I should keep my distance from Young Master Burton while ensuring that he continues giving me attention?”
“Simple. Just keep him waiting. He’ll be sure to give you the attention you seek after a period of time! After all, men generally tend to only appreciate things when they can’t immediately get what they want. Of course, I’m not saying that Young Master Burton is your run-off-the-mill lover, but just try to be less proactive.”
“You said he’s in Milan now, right? You may think that you need to regularly text him to ask questions like whether he’s arrived or not, how the weather is over there, whether he’s been around any women, etcetera. However, you’d best refrain from doing so. After all, while it may feel like a sweet gesture at the start, it’ll quickly get annoying for him.”
“If you ignore him for long enough, Young Master Burton will start wondering why you haven’t replied, or whether you’ve been thinking about him at all. Hell, he may even wonder if you’re having fun with other men. Following that, he’ll surely ask you about the weather or something, and he’ll probably tell you not to get too close to other men as well,” concluded Dolly.
…Was that the case? Though it did make sense… Slightly impressed by Dolly’s suggestions, Xavia was prompted to say, “Since when have you become a love expert?”
“It’s all thanks to that scumbag I guess…” replied Dolly, causing Xavia to go silent…
Unbeknownst to the duo, Kevin—who was standing quite close to them—had been eavesdropping on them for quite a while now, and the corners of his mouth twitched when he heard what Dolly had called him. How had the suicidal woman changed this much this quickly?
