Chapter 1059
- Can you make me one promise, Ares? Please?
A woman lay in bed making her request with a bitter voice, smiling despite herself.
Despite the pain from the severe wound across her abdomen and death drawing near, she didn’t lose her smile.
- Please erase that child’s memories. This was just an accident. And it was my fault. So please... never blame her. Even in death, I’ll never forget you or Perserque. Goodbye, my love.
Rustle.
“Ugh. My head’s killing me,” Sword God Ares groaned as he clutched his messy hair and came to his senses.
It had been a long time since he’d dreamed of that. It was a memory that wouldn’t fade, no matter how badly he wanted it to. In his eyes, while Perserque wasn’t his biological daughter, she was still unimaginably precious. The same went for the wife he’d lost because of her.
At first, he’d taken out his misdirected rage on Perserque. Eventually, he had been crushed by overwhelming guilt and let everything fall apart.
A part of him had wanted to strangle Perserque right then and there, but another part couldn’t bring himself to harm the daughter he loved so dearly. The conflict tore him apart.
But the reason Sword Saint Ares couldn’t help but embrace Perserque was simple. The one who suffered the most; the one who was in the deepest pain; the one who was the most heartbroken and devastated by what happened wasn’t Ares. Nor was it his wife who’d died.
It was Perserque herself.
