90. Sergio's Wish

"I'm sorry, Alice. I'm sorry."

"Your apologies won't change anything. Your actions will remain in my memory. Your apologies won't be able to erase your mistakes towards me. Once again, if you really think of me as your lover then you shouldn't have kept me quiet for a long time. And I think you already know what that means."

Hearing that Sergio shook his head many times. "No, Alice. Listen to me first. Please don't say that, Alice. I'm sorry."

"We're done. Since one year ago. Just when you left for that other island without saying goodbye to me. At that time, our relationship was over."

"No!!! I promise to marry you!!!" Sergio said firmly and half shouted.

Alice stomped Sergio's hand hard. "I don't need a man like you. I don't need your promise that you'll marry me either. Just take care of the new kingdom you're building right now. And don't see me again, except for my job as a head of all maids."
