Chapter 170

Dark red wine dripped onto the floor with his blood. It caused beautiful but poignant flower patterns to bloom on the expensive carpet.

A roiling hatred was spreading in the bedroom.

Beep! Beep! Beep!

There was a call on his phone.

The man calmed his hatred and anger down before answering the call. “What is it?”

“Yes.”

If it's possible, I never want to set foot back there again. However, I was born there. It is also where my ancestors and my parents are buried. The only source of my love and hate is also there.
