Chapter 266 The Start of Tension

In the pitch-black silence of the night, memories of the torment from my past life often resurface.

Only fleeting indulgence seems to momentarily ease the hollow ache within me.

Turning away, he retreated to his room, his silhouette radiating an air of deep loneliness.

If he had foreseen this outcome, why did he make those choices in the first place?

I poured myself a glass of water and lingered in the living room, lost in thought for a long while.

I couldn't help but wonder-did Anna find peace in her sleep tonight?

The following morning, I felt refreshed and headed to the hotel, showing no trace of exhaustion
