Under the cold snow, Dario stood with a stiff body. An hour had passed since Odette found out who he really was.
‘When I missed the figure of a father, where were you?’
‘When my mother and I were starving on the street, where were you?’
Odette’s words kept ringing in his head, and it made his heart ache.
‘What must I do to make you forgive me?’ Dario muttered in his mind. He closed his eyes and cried silently. He had nothing to prove his regret other than those tears.
“Celestial, I’m sorry,” he said while looking up at the sky, letting the snowflakes fall to his face.
Meanwhile, Odette was already back in Lilium Residence. She was still crying and sobbing softly in Lucifer’s embrace.
In his subconscious, Rion, who had been sleeping since yesterday, opened his eyes. He heard Odette’s cries. It sounded very sad that his heart ached.
“Why is he so mean, Lucy? Why?”
Odette’s voice could be heard along with her pitiful sobs.
