Chapter 270: Chapter 272

"You see, I told you so. I told you that that man is bad news but you refused to listen to me" Aito's mother said. "You kept on saying, he's my boyfriend, he'll never hurt me. He loves me. Now, look at where that love has brought you. You're miserable!"

Aito hugged a pillow on the couch and groaned. When his mum said she wanted to talk to him, he didn't think it would be about Ryu. "Not now mum. I already feel like shit. Don't make it worse."

"I'm just telling you to always listen to me. I'm always right," she said. She stood before him with her arms folded. "That man took your father away from us. He ruined your life and-"

"And I still love him, mum!" Aito snapped, cutting her off. He was already frustrated and she wasn't making his mood any better. "I still love him. I know what he did is wrong and I'm super mad at him but I still love him so stop it. It's not like you're innocent. You took his family first."
