Chapter 804

Bitterness Turns Into Resentment

Abigail gently pressed her hand against her temple. “Sean, I killed someone abroad. The bullet went through his forehead, and since then, that bullet has accompanied me, piercing through my forehead countless times in my dreams.”

Sean’s eyes softened with tenderness. “If I hadn’t left that day and stayed by your side, would things have turned out differently?”

“I can’t say for sure. There are no ‘ifs’ in life anymore,” Abigail replied calmly. “The day you left, my vision was clouded by drugs. I couldn’t see clearly. I was lost in darkness.”

The dense darkness enveloped her on that shore.

She tried to push away all thoughts, attempting to find a way back. But the more she tried, the clearer the memories became.

Amidst the relentless insomnia, the recollections of those six months became more vivid, as if they had just occurred yesterday.

Sean held her close. “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have walked away. I shouldn’t have let anger cloud my judgment.”
