Nolan was covered in injuries, his face bloodied.
He didn't utter a word in his defense.
With a thud, he fell to his knees in front of my parents.
He began frantically slapping himself across the face.
"Uncle, Auntie, I know nothing I say now will make a difference. I have only one request: let me see Melody one last time. If she says it's over, I'll never bother her again."
"Everything that happened before was my fault. I was out of my mind, I went crazy to hurt her like that. I know I was wrong now. I'm begging you, please have mercy and let me see her. I'll do anything, whatever it takes! I'm begging you..."
Mom, remembering the pain I'd been through, started crying.
"Melody was lying on a cold operating table because of you, while you were fooling around with another woman behind her back. Do you have any idea what she's done for you?"
