"Come on, Evelina. Breathe for me." Jin Liwei embraced his wife more tightly but still made sure to treat her with gentleness.
"I hated what I did inside," Iris said in a shaky voice.
Seeing her like this distressed him. He kissed her forehead and continued soothing her.
Lu Zihao came out of the holding cell and saw them. His expression changed upon seeing his sister's state. He was about to approach when Jin Liwei sent him a meaningful look. In the end, he only nodded and left the two alone without saying anything.
"Don't beat yourself up over what happened to Jenny Tseng," Jin Liwei told his wife. "She is not innocent to Rose Young's actions."
"I know but…."
"Evelina." He lifted her chin and forced her to look at him. "You might think of me as heartless but I think everyone involved in trying to harm you, me or anyone from our family deserve punishment. They are the ones who started it. We are only retaliating."
