Lumma didn’t answer, but Judy insisted on hearing her views on love. “Lumma, why aren’t you saying anything? It’s
just the three of us today, so go ahead and share your thoughts on love.”
“Everyone has their own perspective on love, and my view represents only my personal opinion, which may not
hold much weight,” Lumma glanced instinctively at Adam who was next to her, who didn’t even look at her,
showing no interest in her opinion.
“We really want to hear your thoughts, especially my brother,” Judy tugged at Adam’s sleeve. “Brother, stop
focusing on eating and say something.”
Adam looked up. Although he cared about Lumma’s opinion, he pretended to be indifferent. “Well, since we are all

happier.”
Now that Adam had spoken, Lumma suddenly felt as if they weren’t at the dinner table on Christmas Eve but in a
conference room where she was asked to speak. She couldn’t remain silent. “If you want to hear, then I’ll speak

But let’s make it clear that if my views differ from yours, don’t get mad at me.”
Adam couldn’t possibly get mad at her. “No, we won’t.”
Judy liked Lumma far more than Lumma had imagined, and she wouldn’t get mad at Lumma just because of
different opinions. “Lumma, go ahead and speak.”
Lumma said, “Actually, personally, I don’t really believe in love.”
Judy asked further, “Why?”
Lumma then explained, “A man and a woman choosing to enter the realm of marriage isn’t necessarily due to love.
It could be because they’re attracted to each other’s appearance, or because of their families, or even due to other
unavoidable reasons.”
Judy said, “Lumma, I don’t deny the reasons you mentioned, but you can’t deny that some people do get married
because of love.”
Lumma smiled and didn’t want to argue with Judy. Everyone has their own perspective on love, and she couldn’t
dictate how others should think. “Yes, I don’t deny that.”
Lumma didn’t argue, and Judy found it extremely uninteresting. “Lumma, why don’t you refute me?”
Lumma said, “It’s impossible for everyone to have the same viewpoint. What is there for me to argue about?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJudy said, “If what you say is true, then a marriage between two people who don’t love each other can’t last.”
Lumma responded, “Because many people who marry for so-called love end up divorcing. Two people without love
coming together doesn’t necessarily mean they can’t last. Personally, I believe that if two people jointly decide to
enter into a marriage, they should take responsibility for that marriage and not engage in actions that betray it.
When one person is sick or in need, the other can take care of them. Problems that one person can’t solve alone
can be resolved together. Communication is essential in life, and by working together, two people can make their
lives better than when they were alone.”
Judy quickly concluded, “So, you’re saying that marriage is just about living together?”
Lumma nodded, “It’s more or less what it means. If life after marriage is worse than before, personally, I don’t see
the point of getting married.
