Chapter 512: Memories (Part III)

Gideon could not stop himself from trembling. He truly did not want to believe what he had just witnessed from the recollection of the memory. No! There was no way… She had died all because… all for the sake of saving him. Him… the monster that should just disappear from this world.

He fell on his knees, pulling at his hair and screamed as though his heart was breaking, wanting to tear himself apart. He did not know… he had absolutely no idea that she had died to save him. She had sacrificed her precious life in exchange for his wretched one. "Why?! Leah!!! Tell me why??!" he cried out despite already knowing the answer. 

And despite his extreme agony, the memories continued flashing, running through his mind with no breaks. Mercilessly, they bombarded his already overwhelmed senses. As if it was still not enough that he was once again mourning the loss of Leah's life. Such a waste – exchanging her life for his, in his opinion.
