The past... really hurt.

It hurt... and it was suffocatingly!

That was why many people were unwilling to face it, whether it was beautiful or not. Because alongside the beauty, there was also the ugliness.

The past between Cedric and Natalie was too heavy for them. It was the kind of heaviness... that suffocated a person.

"In fact, I could..."

"Irv!"

Irwin fell silent.

The word shattered all his resentment completely at this moment!

How long had it been? How long had it been since they had addressed each other like this?

What kind of presence were they in Wexford once?

If they hadn't broken apart because of Blair, would Wexford be in its current state?

No one could disrupt their alliance! No one could gain any despicable benefits from it.

However, now...!

"Take care of her."

After a long while, Cedric fiercely finished his cigarette and pressed the butt into the ashtray.

Cedric knew very well what Irwin's intentions towards Natalie were. Because he knew it so well, he could entrust Natalie to him with peace of mind.

And between him and Natalie...!

Humans... couldn't be too clear-headed. If they were, they wouldn't even resort to shameless means.

Cedric could clearly see Natalie's disdain for him. Once he did, he even lost the courage to persist. If her sight was restored, he would clearly see her repulsion and disgust in her eyes!

Those were the evidence of his wrongdoings in her world, which could never be erased, and he... didn't have the courage to face them. Because her repulsion represented the suffering she had endured by his side.

How could he bear to let her be unhappy again and again?

"Also, you must respect her!" When he said this, Cedric looked at Irwin.

But more than that, he hoped Irwin could carve a place for himself in Natalie's heart for the rest of his life because of Natalie's current environment.
