He knew that the son of Linda’s stepfather had offended the gang leader, so he took that opportunity to stab the guy into permanent disability.

Seth had made some congee in the kitchen.

Zephyr answered after an initial daze, “It’s all in the past. No need to get worked up over it.”

“I want to keep the past in the past too.” Seth sighed. “But it’s not the past to Linda…”
