Chapter 529 Change of Heart

Although Victoria knew her decision might have been a little unfair to Bane, there was nothing much she could do either. Maybe that's the kind of person I am. A selfish person. I can't please everyone because there is only so much I can do. I've been tired recently, so tired that I even wanted to take my own life and end all the suffering once and for all. Despite her initial suicidal intentions, Victoria subsequently managed to find the strength to live on and the way to make peace with her bewilderment, thinking she should save her time for the people she loved the most. As for the rest, she would leave it all to her fate, knowing it would only be a waste of time trying to control something beyond her power.
"Don't worry. You're the one whom I've decided to spend the rest of my life with, so you can rest assured knowing I won't see him again." Victoria walked up to Alaric and held his hand. "But please don't be surprised to see me a little down because this is going to last for quite a bit of time. However, I promise I'll be back to normal soon. I just need some time… okay? I'm sorry."
Alaric looked down, staring at his hands within her palms as his heart melted with sympathy. He then pursed his lips like he was trying to suppress something within him, but in the end, his emotions prevailed and prompted him to pull her into his arms. "Please don't be, baby. Please don't."
