Leaving The Country After Divorce Chapter 1671-Did I Hear Him Right

Lucian stood before him. “Are you remorseful for what you’ve done?” he asked in a low voice.

Colby smiled bitterly. “What difference does that make? I will never forgive myself for nearly causing Dr. Jarvis’ death over my selfishness.”

He looked up at Lucian and spoke with a tone filled with hatred and disgust for himself.

“People are insatiable creatures. Initially, I was happy just working with her. Then, I wanted to be as close as possible to her, so I became her assistant. Not long after that, I wanted her to look at me like how she looks at you. My desire grew as the days passed. I don’t even know what I was doing.”

Lucian studied him, trying to discern the sincerity in his words.

Colby sighed. “Now that I look back on the two mistakes I’ve made, regardless of whether it was starting the fire or sabotaging the laboratory, the slightest lapse in vigilance could have caused a major catastrophe. Aside from Dr. Jarvis, the other researchers in the research institute might have lost their lives by my hand. I deserve to be where I am for my crimes.”
