Chapter 85

Gwendolyn responded by patting him on the back to calm him down.

“Since you love her, go all out to pursue her. You have my support, as I'm not the kind who's dogmatic.

Gwendolyn patted him on the back of his head and answered with a smile, “Go now. Stay by her side in her time of need. Hopefully, I can see the day when both of you come out of this victoriously.”

“All right.”

Now that his family and friends resent me, what future is there to even speak of?
