Chapter 992 - Is It Over or a New Beginning? (1/2)

When Evelyn just told the truth, Anna instantly relayed the message from Evelyn to Alex, and it completely stunned him.

Alex fell silent and looked at Silvia. For the past few hours, she kept sitting on the ground while crying. This might be the first time she felt very hurt when no one believed him, yet she couldn't say anything to Alex because of what her father did.

No matter how you looked at it, there was no way Alex would believe her. She was at a complete disadvantage. To that end, she could only wait for the next news without attempting to do anything to show Alex that she didn't know.

She didn't know why but this felt even more painful when she recalled everything they had experienced during the past few months. At this time, she realized that Alex had a big part in her heart despite not knowing him for long.

The time she spent with him was fulfilling and fun to do. She noticed that her feelings weren't that shallow anymore. But this was why the whole thing became even more painful.

At first, she and her father did this to get Alex, but when everything went well, and her feeling gradually bloomed, the fall was also harder.

Alex also felt uncomfortable doing this, but he just couldn't endure a betrayal. He had it enough with Sandra, but this thing reminded him of her.

The moment the truth came out, he dropped his sword and fell to his knees.

Silvia obviously couldn't understand his action. Despite the pain, she tried to put on her best smile and asked. ”What happened? Are you sick?”

Alex felt even more guilty. Even though he treated her this harshly and wouldn't believe her anymore, she still showed her concern to him.

He lowered his head and said the only thing he must say at this moment. ”I am sorry.”

”What…happened?” She became even more worried while grabbing his hands.

”Everything is my misunderstanding. As soon as I heard someone important than me got kidnapped, I blocked everything despite not knowing whether it was the truth or not. I…”

”It's okay.” She slowly hugged him as she couldn't bear his guilty face. This wasn't his fault. She and her father knew about his character, and yet, her father actually did a risky thing that destroyed their relationship. Even if it were fully restored, they wouldn't have the same relationship anymore. If what he did wasn't known by Alex, everything would indeed go according to his plan.

After all, Lin Xingzhi and the others would need a long time to search for their location, allowing him to successfully make Evelyn his daughter. At that time, Alex had no choice than becoming his son-in-law.

Unfortunately, he didn't know the power of the Gacha System that was able to locate his position that easily and ultimately destroyed everything.

She blamed everything that happened to her father.

Alex decided to tell her about the truth of what happened.

She never expected that her father wanted Evelyn to become his daughter. She had a mixed feeling as his daughter. On one hand, he blamed the father for doing this reckless thing. On the other hand, she wondered whether her existence was only for this and didn't mean anything to her father since he could easily choose to adopt someone?

Including this misunderstanding, her heart finally broke. The tears that she had been holding on finally fell again.

Alex reflectively hugged her back. It was his turn to calm her down.

After crying for five minutes, she let go of her feelings and released Alex.

”I am truly sorry…Telling both of us to forget about it… Won't be possible, right?” Alex scratched the back of his head. ”That's why…Can you forgive me for this? I will do my best to—”

Before Alex finished, she stopped him with her hand and smiled. ”I…I need time. Can I go to your room for a while? I promise it won't take long.”

Since the situation became like this, he nodded his head.

”Thank you.” She weakly rose from the floor and walked staggeringly to his room. Closing the door, Alex could hear her sobbing sounds, but he couldn't do anything.

Three hours passed, but nothing happened. There was nothing wrong with the room, and Silvia was still there.

Suddenly, Alex sensed the fluctuation of the energy. He immediately went to his room, finding no one in the room.

He thought she went to her mansion just to get some time alone, but he saw a body on the ground. The body was like a doll, and its purpose was none other for his dead body. On the body's right hand was a piece of paper that seemed to want to address him something.

Bending down his knees, he took the paper, found the writing behind it, and read it.

”I am sorry, Alex. Everything is my and my family's fault. I never thought that the person you cared about got kidnapped by my own father. I don't want to say something to make me look like I am not at fault, and I am sorry, I really can't handle it anymore.
