"Even if you can't, you must. It's pointless worrying over things you can't control; the change you desire will only come from focusing better on what you can control," Vaan stated.
Dahlia gave a forlorn smile.
Without explaining anything, Vaan already knew what she was thinking and feeling. She was like an open book for him to read. He had always been amazing like that since she met him.
However, the gap between them continued to grow since then as well.
With such a significant difference in status and power between them compared to when they first met, it was normal for her to start feeling afraid of being abandoned and left behind.
Because of this fear, she would naturally compare herself with the other women around Vaan.
After all, she believed that as long as she wasn't the worst person in the harem, she wouldn't be the first to be abandoned. She didn't need to be the best; being somewhere in the middle was sufficient to put her mind at ease.
