Chapter 220

Ephert widened his eyes in recognition.

That's right!

That little brat that bit me!

The one asking about those useless slaves!

Ephert smirked bitterly.

"You still haven't answered me properly," Shin stopped right in front of Ephert, his eyes darkening. "My parents. What happened to them? Where are they? Are they still alive?"

"Haha!" Ephert laughed mockingly. "Alive? You know the answer already, don't you? It's obvious!"

"..."

"They are dead."

Shin stiffened, lowering his head and clenching his fists.

Cecil placed her hand over her chest, looking at the back of the lonely man with a woeful look. Shin was a resemblance to Xue who lost his parents on that day. He was still but a growing child that lost his dearest parents who showered him with endless love.

How painful it must have felt to accept that truth.

How painful it must be to know he was all alone without a family.

How painful it must be to know how helpless he was.

The pain he went through...

I...can't imagine.
