Chapter 306 Blood and Blame

Ilon’t know what our Azure did to make you hate him so much, the woman sobbed, clutching Sierra’s sleeve. “but I’m begging you for the sake of him being our only child, please let him go

“We gave everything to raise him. He’s our whole life. We can’t live without him.”

Azure’s mother wept bitterly, completely deaf to Sierra’s words. Someone had already come to them earlier and told them that Sierra was the one who got their son into trouble. That if she would just speak up. Azure would be released.

The crowd around them was growing Sierra had no way to leave, completely surrounded Autumn, Erwin, and the others were trying to help, trying to calm the situation, but Azure’s parents refused to listen to reason.

Sierra had started out feeling a little sorry for them, but now that pity was quickly souring into something else.

Her voice went cold. “Whether you believe me or not. I’ll say this one last time–Azure’s situation has nothing to do with me. Coming after me won’t help you. Now move.”

Their tears made them look like victims. Meanwhile, Sierra’s calm, emotionless demeanor was working against her. To outsiders, it looked like she was cold and unfeeling.
