Joseph explained everything without hiding anything.
Despite the pained look on his face all while he confessed everything to both Sect Master Taric and Alice. One could see relief within his eyes. Finally, he didn't have to carry all of these burdens by himself. He now had someone whom he could trust and confide all his secrets.
Joseph's explanation only lasted for a few minutes, but his words were rich with content.
It took Alice quite a while to digest what he said.
She then let out a sigh and said, "I see... Now, I understand. You've done well." Alice patted his shoulder.
Joseph smiled once again.
But this time, there was no bitterness in his smile anymore.
