Chapter 89 A Bond and a Wall

“I can’t…”

Feeling Rex’s resistance waning, Daron and Tyler silently let go.

“I just can’t…”

Rex covered his face and cried out. A few drops of tears flowed out from the gaps between his fingers.

The others lowered their heads and did not speak. The only sound in the large room was his sobs, which he tried to suppress. Hearing that, the others felt so bad for him.

“I know. I know you can’t. I understand what you are feeling…” Amelie could only silently hold Rex by the shoulder and patted him on the back.
