Chapter 958

• Gavin’s expression remained calm, but his voice carried a quiet weight as he spoke. "The only way to suppress the poison in my body is with Liza’s blood. But even after all this time, I haven’t been able to fully rid myself of it. The only thing I could do was stop it from worsening. Meanwhile, Liza kept getting weaker. I couldn’t let that continue."
• A faint smile appeared on his lips, though it didn’t reach his eyes. "That’s why I made the decision to stop using her blood. Even if it means suffering through the effects of the poison, I won’t let her bear this burden any longer. But she can’t find out about this."
• He slowly lifted his gaze, locking eyes with Jayden. There was a quiet intensity behind his smile. "I told you because I know you’ll always put Liza first. That’s why I can trust you to keep this secret. She’s lucky to have brothers like you."
