It wasn't hatred for you just my prejudice resulting from my past experiences. While Lourden just proved to me that people in authority would do anything to get what they want. You on the other hand are like a breath of fresh air for me." He replied in a serious tone.
"What happened in the past? You can share with me if you like, maybe it can ease your pain a bit." I asked him in a calm voice.
