Chapter 421

Leandro looked down at Gloria, a rare trace of fatigue appearing in his eyes.

“Do you even realize what you’re doing?” Leandro asked.

“I’m sorry…” Gloria still spoke, “I know you care about him, I know you love him… didn’t mean to hurt him, I really didn’t mean to…”

“He’s your grandson too,” Leandro said slowly, “Your own flesh and blood.”

These words seemed to pierce Gloria like a sudden, sharp knife, making her feel pained. She had been clinging onto Leandro, but now her grip slightly loosened.

“He’s just a child, he doesn’t understand anything” Leandro said, “Why can you bear to hurt him, again and again?”

“Do you

blame me?” Gloria’s tears fell, her eyes red, “I already said I didn’t mean to hurt him, do you still blame me?”

“He’s still in the hospital,” Leandro looked at her, speaking slowly, “As a father, I can’t even protect my own child. What else can I do?”

Gloria took a few steps back, tears still hanging in her eyes, but she started to laugh.

“Indeed…” she said, “I have hurt your son, I deserve to die! I’m sorry, I’ll pay you back! I’ll compensate you right now!”

As she spoke, she began frantically searching around the room.

“Where’s my knife? Where’s my knife?” she was looking for something, babbling nonsense, “I’ll pay you back! I’ll thoroughly pay with my life!”

Leandro watched her irrational behavior silently. After a long while, he finally spoke again, “What will it take for you to let yourself off the hook?”
