Chapter 824

"I used to worry about everything-so many fears, so little confidence in myself, no trust in others. I never dared to love who I liked, never went after what I wanted, and what I could fight for always slipped through my fingers.

"But Michael gave me strength. And Khloe did too. I've also come to understand something. "Narrow-minded emotions are what trap a person. True love has no forms, no deadlines, no chains. Even if it only lasts for a moment, it's never something to regret." Winnie had once feared that friends would dislike her, feared that a lover might change.

So she had built a hard shell to shield herself from the world. But inside, she had been fragile and powerless. Ironically, the person least able to handle love was herself. Sometimes, the ones who fear getting hurt the most are the ones who end up hurting others.
