Harley said unhappily, “Lucas, I know you can’t accept Maddie’s death, but you have to face the truth sooner or later. You can’t be so selfish. Maddie’s death has nothing to do with Winnie. Do you want to deprive Winnie of her happiness?”

Lucas took a deep breath.

No.

It was not that he didn’t want Winslet to be happy.

However, Winslet had become different from before.

He wondered why no one in the family could see that.

Lucas glanced at Winslet and said, “You know it”

“Lucas…” Winslet’s heart skipped a beat. She bit her lip and said. “…”

Her tears were brimming in her eyes.

Lucas would have been heartbroken if it were before.

But now, he had his doubts.

He had thought a kind girl like Winslet couldn’t be so cold–blooded and selfish.

In the past, Lucas was overwhelmed by the idea of defending Winslet

With Madeline’s negative image, Winslet only seemed pitiful and wronged

Now that he thought about it, he wondered if Madeline had actually done anything to Winslet.

Everything he had heard was just Winslet’s account.

“Lucas, I’m sorry.” Winslet got up. I know it’s my fault. I insisted on going to the reservoir. If it weren’t for me. Maddie would have been fine. I have nightmares every night, and I begged for Maddie’s forgiveness in my dreams. How I wish I were the one who died.” Winslet said sincerely, “Please don’t misunderstand me. I feel guiltier and blame myself more than anyone else for Maddie’s death

Harley couldn’t stand it anymore. A trace of anger spread across his gentle face.

That’s enough, Lucas. You feel guilty toward Maddie, but you can’t blame Winnie for your mistake.”

Lucas shook his head and strode away.

He didn’t want to hear it

He admitted he was guilty, but it didn’t mean that others were not guilty.

He would never forgive himself.

However, he really couldn’t see anyone else and continued to live as if nothing had happened.
