Howard, seeing her crying so heartbrokenly, could not hold back his own tears.

He held Sheena tightly and comforted her, “Nana, calm down a bit. This isn’t your fault. Don’t burden yourself with all the responsibility. If you keep tormenting yourself like this, your body will collapse.”

Sheena clutched his sleeve tightly, her mind filled with the nightmare from the day before the incident. Elijah was covered in blood, kneeling in despair in the flames.

She could not absorb Howard’s words. Her tears seemed unstoppable.

“Howard, I always thought he hijacked the plane to kill me. That’s why I justified hating him and torturing him. I couldn’t listen to any explanations from him.

Howard lifted her tear–streaked face, gently reminding her repeatedly, “No, Nana, you’re not to blame. You didn’t kill him. It was his choice. He’s gone, but your life goes on. Don’t let yourself suffer anymore!”
