Chapter Five Hundred and Seventy-One: Meeting Each Other

The more she thought about it, the sharper the pain in her heart became, and tears surged forth. Amelia covered her tear-stained face with her hand, a voice within her uncontrollably calling out that man's name, Daniel, Daniel, I'm sorry…

Please forgive her for only being able to do this.

Forgive her selfishness, for choosing to protect her grandfather between familial and romantic love.

Forgive her lies, she just didn't want him to be placed in an awkward position when the truth was revealed.

So, let her bear all the ugly truth alone. Even if he blames her, it's better than having him face that painful dilemma of being caught between a rock and a hard place.

But, her heart really hurts.

It hurts to the point of death.

She raised her hand to cover the location of her heart, leaning against the door, and slowly sank to the floor. Tears pooled on the gleaming floor.

The air conditioning in the room was warm, but Amelia felt a bone-chilling cold through her entire body.
