Silence finally befell after he said those words.

It was as if every sound and every vibration in the universe had paused. Sasha was as pale as paper, but at that moment, she simply couldn’t say a word.

All that was left was crystal clear tears rolling down her cheeks.

Everything he said was true.

Sasha couldn’t deny that she played a role in his mom’s death. Her intention was to protect him, but by keeping the truth from Sebastian, Sasha inadvertently caused Freida to die by the Jadesons’ hands.

That was simply how things were.

 

Sasha could tell him why she stole from the Legal department and let him know that the truth wasn’t what he thought it was…

But no one would believe that.

 

The tape she stole was the original and only copy.

Moreover, Solomon was spared by the legal system in the end. His freedom was something Sasha couldn’t explain away.

It only took a few minutes to kick Sasha down from cloud nine, and she felt like she had fallen to hell. All she could do was reach out with her trembling hand and grip the edge of his shirt like she did when she was a kid. Tears rolled down her cheeks like rain.

“That’s not what happened, Sebby. L-listen to me. Sebby…”

“Let me go!”

Sebastian pulled his shirt away promptly and cruelly like he did when he was a kid.

Distaste and hatred donned his face, as he walked straight away.

Sasha couldn’t speak.
