"The Artifact that you showed to me in the meeting,

That was what she used to run away that day."

Oberon glanced at Felix and spoke.

Hearing those words, Felix's expression changed.

'Make sure you show it to him,'

He remember how that Eaglekin gave him the Artifact, nagging him to show it to Oberon, he found it strange that time but when he saw Oberon's reaction after he did show that Artifact to him, he understood why he said that.

Oberon lost his calm when he saw that artifact, Felix was shocked that he was showing such a big reaction, but at the same time, he also wondered how that Eaglekin knew about it…

But…

If Oberon's story is true then…

Then…

Felix lowered his head again.

There were too many things going on in his mind right now.

Rune had a strange expression on her face as well.

She understood now...

The reason her father was acting like that all those years ago, it wasn't because of 'mother's death', it was before Ivy died...

However, Rune was still not sure.

Her father's story made sense but there were no proofs to back it up, what if her mother actually did not betray him? What if the story was different and her father was just twisting the facts and presenting the story as he wants?

Rune knows it well, her father was perfectly capable of doing that.

After their 'mother's death', she had seen her father turn into a cold and ruthless man. Actually, even before that, Oberon was a calculative man.

Yes, right now, Rune was doubting every single aspect of her life.

And how could she not?

Everything happening around her was just too much for her.

First her brother, then her husband, then her father, and now her 'dead' mother, every person around her seemed fake and seems to have a plan of their own.
