Chapter 95

• It brought me great pleasure to see him looking scruffy. The Cassius who took pride in his appearance, vowing to always appear clean and well-groomed after growing up as nothing more than a filthy beggar was staring at me looking exactly like the man he swore not to become. With unshaven beards, sunken eyes and dark circles that resembled a panda’s, he looked horrid.
• “I see you are doing very well.” His eyes were dull and his tone flat.
• There was something in there that I could not quite interpret. It was as though I was staring at a watered-down version of the Cassius I used to know. I could not believe I had fallen in love with such a sight.
