Zella's heart moved. He still called her as his wife, his significant other. Zella doesn't have any idea how to make him stop, but if she said it sooner, Leo would still insist and not follow at all. But she had to release all of her disappointments.
"How can you be more than horrible than me? I'm unpleasant than you are. I killed my family, I got imprisoned, I escaped, and now, I'm here. I put you in misery, Leo, so I'm the one malevolent."

"Don't make me an excuse, Leo. I was there because I was there, not because you chose me to be there. You didn't want to shed me under your wing at all, but you did. It was your choice to hide me! I'm not forcing you to do that!"
"Because I love you, Zella! I love you from the first sight…"
