Chapter 504: My Beautiful Wife

"The memories of that witch must have been tormenting you," he began softly. "I'm sorry I didn't realize what you were going through. I should have known that you were suffering. I don't hold you responsible for anything that happened in the past, and I don't want you to pay for it.

I have never hated you, not even for a single moment. What others did, the weight of their actions is solely their responsibility to carry and not ours. All I want is for us to be together and lead a happy life as husband and wife."
