Bab 2129: Don't

The person that Leonel had thought of first, was, of course, Aina's mother. Of course, he had Hutch in mind as well, but the one he most wanted to see happy could be no one else but Aina. The weight that Aina had carried all this time had started from that very day her mother was executed for having the audacity to bear her as a child.

It wasn't just rage, but it was also helpless, exasperation and, most importantly of all… guilt.

If she hadn't been born, then maybe her mother would still be fine, maybe she wouldn't have to suffer such a cruel fate, maybe she and Aina's father wouldn't have been found out and so severely punished.

But, there was already no going back to reverse all of these things. There was only one thing left… revenge. And she could only hope that it would be enough to fill the void in her heart.
