Davis spoke with a bit of regret emerging in his voice, "I used you as the foremost bait in order to lower that bastard's guard against me.

"I'm truly sorry."
Davis sincerely apologized with all his heart, hoping that Tanya would understand, but seeing her lips curve down and tremble while tears emerge from her eyes and run down her face, he was unable to take it and pulled her into an embrace, cuddling her with all his heart.
"Ahhh~"
