Mara's lips curved into a smile, the first genuine one she had managed since her arrival in this wretched place.
Despite her weakness, she summoned the strength to speak, desperate for Peter to hear her plea and show her mercy.
"Pete, please, I need your help. I promise, we can be together," she implored.
In that moment, Mara realized the gravity of her mistake.
She shouldn't have confided in Peter about her pregnancy.
Even more so, she shouldn't have rejected his advances when he wanted to be intimate with her.
If only she had acquiesced, he would never have turned his back on her, and their relationship wouldn't be in ruins.
Regrettably, Peter remained unconvinced. He had hacked into the surveillance cameras in Mara's room, witnessing everything firsthand after Robin informed him that Mara had shot him.
The truth was disheartening for Peter, as he had hoped Mara would have a change of heart towards him.
