"I didn't let Olivia know that the violin was my sister's. I kept it a secret from her, I just wanted to help her."
"..."
"Out of several violins, she was the only one who favored my sister's. This proves it was destiny, I didn't force her to choose my sister's violin."
Tears gathered in Jay's eyes, slowly dropping. Jay started to cry.
A bitter pain spread in Jay's heart.
Jay was still justifying himself, not realizing his wrongdoings. Daniel couldn't believe it; he was utterly disappointed. With a deep, unfathomable gaze, he subtly reflected the flickering flame of anger inside.
Daniel felt a deep sense of desolation and disappointment in his heart.
Daniel, his thin lips barely parted, spoke with a voice as cold as ice.
"Olivia didn't know the violin was from your sister, Jay. But you clearly knew my reaction when I saw your sister's most cherished violin in someone else's hands."
