the blood of our children,
He regretted it, trembled, and slapped himself again and again.
He faced the vast ocean, facing each body on the ground that wasn’t mine, repeatedly calling out apologies, repeatedly confessing his love. But no one answered him:
A that moment, Damian understand.
He had completely lost me
Endless regret gnawed at him, torturing laim to the brink of madness.
He wamed to hate, to shift all the blame and guils onto Ivy.
But he couldn’t
He understood deeply that the person I hated was him

Damian sat on the beach until late at night.
His tears dried up, and he couldn’t help but think.
During our cold war, during
the month he and by were preparing for the wedding-
I must have felt such despair.
He’d allowed by to show off
allowed Ivy to make the wedding news public.
He’d wanted her to let everyone know that his wife was Ivy.
He thought this would keep me safe.
At least, the target of revenge wouldn’t be me first.
But now, he understood how foolish that had been.
Despair and regret filled Damian’s eyes.

According to the plan, he would use the wedding as bait, luring the Falcone Family out.

He would eliminate them.
That way, he could completely go legitimate.
Give me the suble life I wanted.
But he couldn’t anymore.
At that moment, I was hiding behind the rocks, watching Damian,
In the name of loving me, he had hurt me, hurt my children.
And in the name of avenging me, he had harmed Ivy’s child, throwing her into the sea.
Watching his ruthless, cold ‘back, I felt a chill.
When I was thirteen, he found me by a dumpster.
He gave me a bowl of rice,
and a home.
I’d thanked him countless times.
I’d seen him as my only salvation
Even though he made me have multiple abortions,
even though I’d long known he had a mistress,
I never thought of leaving him.
Until that woman appeared before me,
until they announced their wedding,
until Damian threw her into the sea.
Only then
n did I understand how ridiculous Damian’s love was
Only then did I realize that he had given me life, yet made me do all his dirty work.
A month ago,
I made two phone calls from the incubator room.
One was to the Falcone Family,
Damian had a long–standing feud with them.
I used Damian’s information to get their help in faking my
wuicide.
The other was to the doctor.
He was the only one who gave me a beads–up when Damian brought. Ivy back,

the only one who dared to speak up for me in front of Damian.
I asked him to show Damian the evidence.
Seeing the evidence, Damian, as I’d expected, came to the beach.
I closed my eyes. It was almost over.

As dawn broke, the Falcone Family came ashore, surrounding Damian.
Damian tried to fight back, but when he saw me in the crowd, his strength vanished.
He opened his mouth, his dull eyes suddenly lighting up.
Tm sorry, Elara!“
I was somewhat surprised.
I thought his first words would be asking me why.
Damian was held down, his handsome face smeared with muddy grime.
His hair was disheveled, his face covered with stubble.
It was the first time I’d ever seen him so disheveled
Elara, I’m sorry! I was too arrogant, too careless, and let Ivy hurt you and our children!”
That venomous woman, and her child, I’ve dealt with them. If you’re still not satisfied, you can tell me, and I will avenge you, I will make it right! I’ll do anything!*
