“I want to protect her, but I can only distance myself from her right now. I even dream of being with her all the time. My heart aches whenever I think of this. I really love her a lot. I had never suspected her when Claire died, and I have never thought of seeking revenge on her. I know her the most. How could she kill an innocent woman like Claire? She’s a righteous person who would even send help when she encountered an accident. How could such a kind person like her harm Claire? Naomi, I only hope to protect her for the rest of my life.

“I-I’m not going in.”

With that, Ashlyn turned around and left the scene.
