Chapter 811

“Barbara, what Corey is doing isn’t self–harm. Everything he’s doing now is my way of punishing Sheila. He’s taking on Sheila’s punishment for her, trying to tell me, in his own way, to let Sheila go.”

Barbara was caught off guard by Sheena’s perspective.

“Sheena, Corey hasn’t mentioned Sheila since that return banquet. He’s atoning for you.”

Sheena fell silent for a long time.

In the background, she could hear Corey’s weak, hoarse recitation from the altar room. She gently opened the door and saw Corey’s scarred back. For a brief moment, her heart softened at the sight of the crisscrossing bloodstains.

However, it lasted only a few seconds.

After pondering for a while, she smirked, her eyes icy.

“He does need to atone. Since he’s punishing himself, let him be. He feels guilty and won’t find peace until he clears his conscience.”

With tears welling in her eyes, Barbara whispered sorrowfully, “But Sheena, he’s whipping himself twenty lashes every day with a horsewhip! At this rate, he’ll definitely collapse from all the suffering!”
