CHAPTER 300

It wasn't just a simple request, but a heartfelt request of Phileo. Could it be that he really is starting to think and considering their option to finally let her go? 

It was heavy, solemn, and at the same time, it felt wrong yet the right thing to do. 

Who are they to refuse him off seeing his wife? When it could be the last time for him to let all of the frustration and pain go. To end the misery that everyone has been living ever since she ended up in that situation. 

"Yes... Of course, alright." Aethan granted the request. "You can... Go now, Phileo..." He even added, making way for Phileo to find the last resort of having inner peace. 

He was shaking, trembling as Phileo tried to take a step, standing tall but then staggered as he felt his knees weakened. Everyone was quick to assist him yet he paid them no attention, as he stood up on his own and left the room with a heavy heart.
