Chapter 0616

While Maximus traveled back from Germany, in Switzerland, Lucius was grappling with the only choice his mother was giving him. He refused, but every day she reminded him that she wasn’t well and that it would be better if he let her go.

“Lucius, think carefully about what you’re doing, son… You’re throwing your money away. I’m never going to get better. Let me go I’ve made my decision.”

“That’s not your decision to make! Damn it!” Lucius yelled, frustrated.

“It is! I lived a good life, son. I got to see you grow up, to watch your siblings and Laura. I know I wasn’t a good mother, but I always knew that at any moment, my father of Leonardo would take you away from me. I never wanted to get attached to you. I preferred to act like you didn’t exist and this is my punishment.”

“Mom! I already told you–you’re not going to die! I don’t care. Even if I have to beg Maximus for help, I’ll never let you die. Do you understand?”

“Lucius… there’s something I’ve never told you,” Alexia said, her eyes filled with tears.

“Mom… I told you I don’t like it when you cry. I hate seeing those beautiful eyes like that.”
