As soon as the old lady urged him, the guy couldn't bear to look into her face as he tilted his head down, tears sliding down his cheeks.
Suddenly Rifan fell on his knees before the old lady, folded his shivering arms, and pleaded sorrowfully, "I am so sorry, Madam… I don't even have an excuse to defend what I did to my other fellow brothers and sisters here. As our senior, you treated all of us equally and guided us like a mother should do…but…we betrayed you! I am so sorry!"
As soon as he quivered, all the fellow servants who aided Mark also frowned their sorrowful faces and knelt on the ground, folding their shivering hands. None of them had the courage to look into the old lady's face and only stared below, wiping their teary eyes.
