Chapter 38: Things we can't explain

Hardy's Pov

Do I hate West Devon Lockhart? She had asked me.

It was a good question.

West Devon Lockhart was a monster of biblical proportion but he was my father.

He was a monster who did terrible things, who wrecked the lives of those he should be protecting, who broke hearts of those who loved him most…he was the devil alright, but he was my father too.

How do I explain to her something I could barely understand myself?

Should I tell her that West Devon Lockhart is the reason I joined KSI?

That I didn't hate him before because I used to think West was the way he was because something in him was broken…it was broken so bad that he was rendered incapable of feeling anything…incapable of love or any other emotion a man should feel for his flesh and blood and it was just enough explanation to stop the internal struggle in me.
