Burning Passion: Love Never Die

With his hands clasped behind his back, Hans bellowed with a forceful intensity,
striving to salvage his reputation.
His intent was to turn Millie into a laughingstock within the town. Moreover, rural
communities tended to be lenient with boys and strict with girls.
In the countryside, gossip could be a lethal weapon. Once, in this very town, a
girl who was found exiting a widower’s room was branded as indecent. Young
and unable to withstand the crushing weight of the rumors, she tragically took her
own life not long after.
Hans aimed to besmirch Millie's reputation, tarnishing her family’s standing
before her grandmother's return and ensuring their ostracism.
Millie, however, responded with a scornful laugh, deciding to withhold any effort
to save his face.
“Then, I sincerely wish you a swift discovery of a suitable daughter-in- law.
However, most men around Roland's age in this town are already married with
children who can toddle about. Why is Roland without a girlfriend? Didn*t you
boast of your annual earnings amounting to hundreds of thousands? Why would
these young women opt for ordinary families over yours? By the way, I've heard
whispers that when your wife struggled to conceive, you visited the andrology
department for a check-up, after which she miraculously became pregnant. One
wonders if your ailment might have a hereditary inclination.”
Hans simmered with rage, his impulse urging him to deliver a slap to Millie,
Discussing such topics was taboo among men, and he hadn't anticipated Millie's
audacity to publicly insinuate his son's inadequacy.
Deep within, Millie harbored a sense of remorse towards Roland. She had been
driven mad by his father’s provocation.
Hans shot Millie an incensed glare, playing his ultimate card.

“Yet the verdict remains unknown. Millie, the town’s premier student and its.
crowning jewel, weds an indigent youth with nothing to his name. As the adage
goes, men fear selecting the wrong occupation, while women dread marrying the
wrong man. You've become quite the disappointment, Millie.”
A shockwave rippled through the crowd.
“Millie’s married? And to a penniless lad?”
“What a pity! She's both striking and well-educated. Even the fat girl in town
secured a more desirable husband. It seems she truly lacks wit.” Hans continued
his onslaught.
“Her husband hails from destitution. Behold, everyone in town owns a car. How
did Millie return, you ask? She arrived in a shabby minibus. The couple can't
even afford a modest car. What a spectacle.”
Married to a poor lad? Millie's eyes narrowed, perplexed by Hans * assumption.
Scanning her surroundings, Millie caught sight of Laurel.
Laurel undoubtedly knew Millie had married into the Thomas family, yet here she
stood, arms folded, relishing the spectacle.
It must have been Laurel who divulged the falsehood that Millie married a poor
boy.
In truth, Millie deemed marrying a less affluent individual inconsequential.
Poverty wasn't inherently dreadful; it was a lack of ambition that posed the true
concern.
