Chapter 720
He smiled. "Okay." That word could have meant so many different things, and | wasn''t sure which was it.
| didn''t have much appetite at the dining table, but Hendrix had ced some food in my te. If | didn''t eat them, he''d just worry
about me, so | forced them all in.
After the meal, | went back to the bedroom. There was a bit of difort in my stomach, but it was bearable.
Hendrix was still in the study. | let myself rest for a while, but | suddenly remembered that the USB was left by theputer in
the study.
| didn''t intend to hide it from him; | just felt like if that past was revealed to him, it would leave quite an impact on him.
| went out of the bedroom and crept my way to the study. The door was half-closed.
| lightly pushed the door open and entered. He was right in front of theputer and was surprised by my sudden entrance. He
looked at me, his gaze bore no warmth and it seemed like he was trying to suppress some of the emotions he had.
That was rather odd of him to do.
My heart skipped a beat. | knew that he saw the video.
"It''s gettingte, are you going to sleep?" | said while standing by the door, feeling a little helpless.
He pursed his lips and there was a faint smile in his eyes. The sad look in his eyes faded away and he replied, "I''ll head over ina
while.”
| nodded and tried to calm myself down as much as possible. When | walked to his side, | saw the video that was being yed
on the screen and my body froze.
He did see the video after all.
| wanted to say something, but my words seemed to have gotten stuck in my throat.
"You do me me for this, right?" He asked indifferently.
| pursed my lips and pulled the USB out. | calmed down and sat beside him. | inhaled slightly and mustered enough courage to
speak. "At first, | also thought that | med you. But | gradually realized that at the time, | felt more self-me and fear. It was
my fault that | couldn''t keep my child."
He grabbed my hand and our eyes met. He raised his hand and tucked my hair behind my ear. "It''s not your fault."
| looked down and didn''t want to drown in this feeling. Then, | looked up at him and said with a faint smile, "It was snowing
heavily yesterday. What were you thinking?"
Seeing me like this, he smiled out of the blue, "I thought you''d feel sorry for me."
"But if | did, you wouldn''t be able to get through it, would you?" The hidden scar was there within him. | had the same scar as
well.
One wrong decision led to another.
ording to Freya, the person who suffered the most was Hendrix. When he had the DNA swapped, he had thought it was for
my own good. But in the end, he found out that he was the one who pushed me into the darker valley. He not only caused our
rtionship harm, he also dragged an innocent, unborn child into this mess.
Every night, he would need to bear this immense guilt and torment in his heart.
He stretched out his arms and pulled
me into a hug. He took a light breath
and said in a low vaige, (ayiaarte)

justice. Hearing myself tell you that
I''ll make it up to you sounds feeble to
me as well. Stay with me, but if you''re
in pain, I''ll let you go." Please read the

| reached out, wrapped my arms
around his waist and buried my head
in his chest. | sighed. ‘Freya toldirie

have to look forward. It''s fine to look
back sometimes. But if we keep on

He hugged me tightly and said no more.
Artionship between two beings started once they were attracted to one another and it would eventually grow from there on. |
knew that the past could hurt. Even so, there was still more to life than this.
We shall just let time do its magic.
| returned to the bedroom, my stomach still twitching in pain. He was taking a shower in the bathroom, so | decided to walk over
to the balcony.
When he came out of the bathroom,
he was wrapped in a bath towel ual
his waist. His shoyiderd treré broad
