Chapter 10

Alec was arrested on suspicion of intentional assault.

Meanwhile, after several hours of emergency treatment, Faye didn't pull through due to the severity of her injuries.

My parents lost two children in a short span of time, their hair turning completely white overnight.

Mrs. Frost received something from my parents on her way to visit Alec.

They couldn't face Alec right now.

But they knew the cause of all this wasn't Alec.

It was their years of neglect towards me.

So my parents found it even harder to forgive themselves.

They would continue to live in pain and guilt from now on.

Alec looked at Mrs. Frost sitting across from him.

She seemed to have aged ten years.

Mrs. Frost took something out of her bag and handed it to Alec.

Alec's eyes, which had been as lifeless as death just moments ago, immediately lit up.

It was a Celtic love knot.

It was a gift from the school-wide matchmaking event in freshman year.

I had hidden Alec's name inside it.
