Chapter 701 Feeling Guilty?

This was a lesson Hera had to learn the hard way. In the novel, she had shown nothing but kindness, pouring her heart into helping Alexi become a better version of himself. She gave everything—until it led to her own death. But it wasn't just her life that was lost; her kindness had also doomed her grandfather, dragging him down with her simply because she couldn't bear to harden her heart. 

So who said ruthlessness was the mark of a devil? Weren't those who ruled with ruthless decisiveness the ones who truly had control over everything? As long as she could balance kindness with ruthlessness, then everything would be fine.

Hera had given Emily countless chances to turn back, to stop her actions before things went too far. She had chosen restraint, avoiding harsh retaliation—but what did she get in return?

More attacks.

More schemes.
