The Love that Never Really Dies

After failing to inform Shin, he returned to Avenport and discovered that Frieda and her son had gone missing. Frederick told him that he did not manage to save them.

When Rufus heard that, he was so furious that he scolded Frederick harshly.

As he had no other choice, he could only accept this unfortunate outcome and return home with his newly-wed wife, Heather.

No one would have expected that Frederick actually deceived him. Actually, he had already saved Frieda and her son. In order to protect them, he even raised the child as his own.

As for Frieda, he kept her in the basement secretly for more than twenty years.

Tears welled up in Rufus’ eyes.

To avoid scaring her, he deliberately stayed far away and squatted down in front of her carefully.

“Frieda, I know that you’ve recognized me. I’m sorry that I didn’t protect you and your son back then. If I had informed Shin in time, this wouldn’t have happened to you.”

Shin?

This name caused Frieda, who had been living in a constant nightmare, to slowly regain her rationality.

“Shin… He’ll be here to pick us up…” She finally released her hands and revealed her eyes. Fear still lingered in them as she stared at Rufus with hope in her eyes.

Rufus felt a pang of pain in his heart when he saw her gaze.

As expected, she had been triggered by him.
