Mia looked calmly into Ethan's deep, dark eyes. "Ethan, I'm not defending William. I'm just stating the facts... Because, if you're opposing him for my sake, I hope you'll give up that idea... You and William should have been able to coexist peacefully. It's not worth it for me, and besides, you really have misunderstood him."
"For you, I'm willing to be his enemy." Flames seemed to shoot from Ethan's deep eyes as he gritted his teeth.
She gently broke free from Ethan and turned back to the floor-to-ceiling window. "You know, Ethan, in this lifetime, I have no more thoughts about love... And you should be aware that my health doesn't allow me to have any thoughts about love."
Ethan turned her back to face him. "Do you think I care if you can get pregnant? In a world of two people, even a child is an outsider. If we can be together, what does it matter if we have children or not?"
"But I..." She paused. "You know my situation."
