"Tsk! You don't seem sorry at all!" Nova said in a louder tone as she approached Vicente. "Are you telling me that you wouldn't have told me your secrets if you had the chance?"
"Exactly," Vicente said bluntly.
"You!" She felt like punching the guy in front of her, seeing how bold he was to answer her like that.
"What about Nina? Does she know who you are? Are you hiding the truth from her as well?"
"Of course. Nina is a child. Why should she know who I am? As far as I'm concerned, she will never know my identity as Cesar, just as I wanted it to happen with you. Unfortunately, I couldn't protect you from this information."
"Protect me?" She made a more irritated expression. "I don't want to be protected that way. Besides, if I had known who you were from the beginning, you wouldn't have had half your problems so far!"
Vicente smiled. "Oh? Would you have helped me?"
