As Jenny walked back into Dark Dream, Nick looked at his three distant employees.
Petra's words made Nick feel strange.
He genuinely didn't feel like he had done anything to be proud of.
They had had an agreement, and he had simply fulfilled his part of the agreement.
He had protected his employee.
But when Petra had been so thankful, Nick felt unnatural.
It was like he was not supposed to be in this situation.
People were not supposed to be thankful to him.
He felt like he didn't deserve their thanks.
Nick knew that he had done horrible things in the past, and he knew that it was almost impossible to redeem himself.
His only hope of redemption was to make Crimson City into a utopia.
But the chances of that dream coming true were low.
