A: The meaning you are trying to deliver is not clear to me.
Can you explain more?

Anyway here are some more examples in case they help:
If you’re feeling so much envy that it’s not possible to feel a higher level of envy:
“I couldn’t be more envious of her promotion, I have been trying to get the same promotion for years”

If you were feeling envious, but can’t continue to do so and will stop:
“ I can’t be envious of her success anymore, she used immoral methods”
or “I can no longer be envious of her, it’s too tiring and I don’t care anymore”
“I don’t/can’t envy her anymore, she got in a terrible accident”

A: I admire you?

A: I think that is wrong. You could say “She envies me” or “She envies my success”, but me and my are repetitive. I hope that helps!

A: Envy, is mostly used when somebody has something( like a property) you wish to have.

Jealous is mostly used in relationships

You know, right?

A: "I really envy people who can speak English fluently."

Don't worry, I'm sure you will learn to be fluent in English in no time!

A: I envy your father, always surrounded by caring and kind-hearted loved ones. If my life were like his, that would be wonderful. Should I tell him that?

I would not say that to him without knowing him pretty well, unless the other person thinks it would be a good idea.

A: I prefer "I envy them instead of respecting them."
