Love Began with the First Meeting

All of a sudden, Justin collapsed to the ground and shut his eyes. He tried to remember Molly's face at that moment but drew a blank. The last time he saw her face was that morning, and it was only very brief. Even then he didn't look at her seriously because all he could think about was Rory.

Karma was indeed a bitch.

As Justin collapsed, the last thing on his mind was that death was his only way out of all this. He would not be accepted by any faction; not the conservatives, not the reformists. Where was he to go?

But through all these, who would care? Even if they wanted to get to the bottom of what happened, there was no way to do it. The fight sparked by a 21-year-old war would be buried deep under together with Justin's execution and Jenifer's exile. Throughout the ordeal, the conservative faction and reformist faction both remained intact, or so it seemed. They merely sacrificed two people. But the truth was the two factions had been deeply affected by everything that happened.

There is a tendency among men to attribute mistakes to someone else. Rarely will someone take the blame even if it is his fault when it is more convenient to point to someone else as the culprit. The recent conflict was one good example. It was all attributed to Molly.
