Chapter 545: OVERLAPPING IMAGES

AFTER a few seconds, the Gatekeeper's eyes were slowly filled with determination.  Although his pallor was still pale, he no longer looked like he was about to die from excessive heartache.  Obviously, what Shen Ji Yun said was very effective.

"I'm sorry for letting you see something unsightly," the Gatekeeper started.  "After your last visit, it made me remember a lot of the past.  All the memories I had with my wife.  And I was once again overcome with grief.  I couldn't control the sadness that had been filling inside me every day.  I couldn't eat, I couldn't sleep, no wonder I passed out and became sick. 

"And then after you told me what really happened to Finnea, everything inside me just shut down.  The sadness in me turned into hate and anger.  Then I realized, no matter how angry I get, no matter how strong my hate is, it could never bring her back again.  And I just- I just wanted to see her.  I wanted to be with her even just for a second."
