"Won't you abandon me?" Veronica asked.
Saint Ava raised an eyebrow. "Should I not abandon you?"
Veronica lowered her head. "I'm sorry for everything."
Seeing her sorry state, infuriated Saint Ava even more.
She said, "That's a sudden change of heart. I wonder what's the reason. You are a stubborn fool who keeps making wrong choices.
"I know it's because you grew up not being able to make any decisions in your life and you are delusional.
"With all those responsibilities. I thought you could change for a better person but I was wrong."
Veronica lowered her head even more. The guilt she felt at that time, she wanted to bury herself in it.
She gathered some courage and said, "I know you must be disappointed in me but I'm ready to face him and tell him I won't look for my freedom anymore. Please give me a chance to live."
