Seeing Harrison Clark’s sudden embarrassment, Carrie Thomas got a bit nervous.

She secretly wondered if she said something wrong. Maybe she should tell a lie, saying it was all for him?

But she was not good at lying and felt uncomfortable doing so.

Carrie was a simple and straightforward person.

She was only interested in music and couldn’t bother with anything else.

She loved music because she had a great dream.

Her dream’s origin was naive, but very real.

“Leave something for the world.”

Just a simple ten-word phrase.

Some people often talk about it, only to live their lives as a joke.

Some people dedicate their lives to making this joke a legend.

Carrie was the latter kind of person, who didn’t talk about it, just stubbornly persisted.

There were three reasons why Harrison Clark could attract Carrie Thomas.

First, Harrison Clark’s “music” completely captivated her.

This was the reason Harrison Clark thought, but he didn’t know it wasn’t the decisive factor.

To attract Carrie, talent alone was not enough.

Even if Harrison Clark resonated with her by stealing her own song, it wouldn’t be enough.

There is no first in literature, and no second in martial arts.

Being able to break into the top hundred in the art world where no one yields to anyone else was already beyond ordinary people’s imagination, even unreasonable; yet, she made it happen.

At the beginning of the first timeline, she made her debut as a pop singer, defying Eric Mitchell’s pressure from a humble position and carved out a bloody path by relying on her own abilities, rising against the current like a grassroots hero.

After gaining fame, she, who never relied on any force, still had to face various difficulties alone. But she was fearless and eventually achieved unparalleled success, becoming an icon transcending time.

Her stubbornness might be stronger than Harrison Clark imagined.

There was an odd absolute self-confidence in her bones; she wouldn’t submit to anyone, including Harrison Clark.

Even though she admired Harrison Clark’s creative abilities enormously, even wanting to learn from him, she still aspired to catch up with him and even surpass him.

She understood the importance of respecting her teacher but wouldn’t blindly follow them, which was also the reason she dropped out of school.

She wouldn’t be consumed by the songs Harrison Clark wrote for her; instead, she tirelessly pursued her own inspiration.

The second reason was that Harrison Clark saved her life.

The third reason was the most important one.

Carrie sensed Harrison Clark’s sense of responsibility, a kindred spirit with even deeper sense of commitment than her own.

Carrie once asked Harrison Clark, “Why are you always so busy and tired? Don’t you want to rest?”

At that time, she already had suspicions in her heart and just wanted to hear the definite answer from Harrison Clark.

Now, Harrison Clark remained silent. Carrie waited a long time, tilting her head and staring at him with beautiful eyes.

“Well… if you don’t like me talking like this, I can change too. For example… saying it’s all for you, or anything like that…”

Harrison Clark covered his face, “Absolutely not.”

This was killing him.

He thought about it again, having no choice but to resort to drastic measures.

Harrison Clark tentatively asked, “What if I change my mind and ask you to stop creating now? As long as you promise me, we can get married immediately. How about that?”

Carrie was taken aback, “What nonsense are you talking about?”

No, I’m serious. This song is too difficult. I don’t want you to waste your youth on it.”

Carrie was puzzled again, “Can’t I still write after getting married? The two don’t conflict.”

Harrison Clark shook his head, “It’s different. This song is not a love song. Married and sweet all day, how can you write such atmospheric stuff?” “Do you underestimate me?”

“No!”

“Alright then, I can pretend to agree with you, then get married and secretly write. When we die, it can be published. Isn’t this the best of both worlds?”

Harrison Clark was dumbfounded again.

Indeed, he underestimated her. This was the real her, not so honest, and nothing could change her mind once she set it.

“This…”

He secretly thought it might be a perfect solution.

Just at this moment, Carrie next to him suddenly let go of his hand, turned around, leaned on the railing by the lake, and said softly, “Actually, you don’t like me, right? You used marriage as a condition just to force me to finish this song, right?”

Harrison Clark’s heart skipped a beat, and he shuddered, “I… I…”

Carrie sounded a bit gloomy, “You really underestimate me.”

Harrison Clark turned his face away, unable to continue the conversation.

Carrie continued, “I don’t need conditions to do anything. I just feel a little sad. You said I can’t lie, but neither can you. In fact, I knew from the beginning that you didn’t like me. Conditional love is not real love.”

“I’m…I’m sorry.”

He finally said it.

As expected, lying was a difficult thing.

“I knew from the beginning, so you don’t have to apologize. I wasn’t a likable person before, so it’s nice that you didn’t hate me. No, you hated me at first.”

Harrison Clark shook his head, “No.”

“You’re lying again.”

Harrison Clark, “Well, there was a little bit, but it wasn’t that serious.”

Carrie: “What about later?”

“I don’t hate you anymore.”

Carrie: “But after you stopped hating me, you felt guilty, which made you uncomfortable?”

Harrison Clark felt completely exposed, “Yes… yes. How do you know so well? Have you studied psychology?”

Carrie suddenly smiled sweetly and shook her head, “I haven’t studied psychology, but I have studied you. I don’t know what you’ve been through, but I understand your emotional changes. I understand you better than anyone else in this world, maybe even better than yourself..”
