44 Goodbye Alice(2)

Desmond paused, settling himself on the floor and patiently waiting for Alice to regain her composure. Several minutes passed until Alice finally calmed down, her gaze meeting Desmond's. "I'm sorry about earlier, brother," she murmured, her voice tinged with remorse.

Alice realized the weight of her actions and grappled with guilt. Despite initially viewing Desmond as a devil or cold-blooded villain, her recollection of the harrowing kidnapping incident reminded her that he had been the only one there to offer help. Her perception of Desmond shifted once more, no longer seeing him as a hero but as someone who deeply cared for their family.

Drawing strength from Desmond's words, Alice gradually embraced the harsh reality before her. Her eyes locked with Desmond's, witnessing the seriousness etched upon his face.
