Mike looked at him coldly. "Doesn't this sc*mbag have a wife and kids?"

Jonell couldn't find the words to respond. He lay on the bed, feeble and powerless.

"Of course he does," Sean said indifferently.

In his youth, Jonell was a prominent figure in Eswadia's Capitalis. He attended the finest university, but his love for a girl from a lower social class brought about opposition from his family.

That girl was outstanding in both academics and appearance and was voted the campus beauty despite her troubled past.

"Yeah... I had someone..." Jonell's voice was hoarse.

"Seleni... Her name also bore the meaning 'moon'. She looked so much like Luna..."

He spoke slowly with a faint smile. Then tears welled up as he reminisced about the past.

Poor Seleni endured objectification by men in the village from childhood because of her beauty. Her own father was driven by greed, so he sold her virginity, which opened the door to further exploitation by others in the community.

Seleni always took half of the money from her father without fail and stashed away every penny.

Upon graduating from high school, she enrolled in the top university in Eswadia.

"I started digging into all of this when I first set my sights on her. Initially, I was furious, but Seleni couldn't have cared less," Jonell revealed and paused briefly. "Because of that, I saw her as someone beyond ordinary."

Of course, his reckless pursuit of Seleni was eventually revealed to his family, and Seleni's entire life became public knowledge.

"She claimed she didn't care... but still, she chose to walk into the river. That day, I held her body, which felt as cold as iron." Jonell's body shivered. "I was twenty-two then. Now I'm fifty-two, and not a day goes by without her crossing my mind."
