"Death is the least significant thing I am willing to do for you."
This was the unconscious utterance from Lynn when he was on the brink of being tortured to death by Xiya's relentless interrogation.
It was this very sentence that overwhelmed Tiya with guilt, leading to all that happened subsequently.
But ultimately, it was actually due to Lynn's dire state at that moment that such thoughts arose within her.
Setting aside this major factor, Tiya didn't actually give much thought to the sentence itself.
Given her personality and public image, how could she, who never minces words with any man, ever succumb to a man's sweet nothings?
She was mostly indifferent.
She found the seemingly profound statement out of place.
Because the words were too vague.
So vague that they failed to evoke a sense of reality, more like an oath aimlessly made by a man in a moment of passion toward a woman.
Therefore, Tiya hadn't taken the sentence to heart.
