Chapter 140

Owen's pov: I didn't expect that Darren would tell me that Emily was still alive. At that moment, the strongest emotion I felt was excitement. It had been three years. In fact, I had never thought of giving up my beloved. But after failing miserably despite doing everything in my power to save my beloved, I had started to accept the reality of things. I accepted the reality that Emily had left me forever. I accepted the reality that I would spend the rest of my life in remorse and guilt. I accepted the reality that the rest of my life would be spent being accused by Lucas and in complete darkness. I had accepted all of that, but at this moment, someone was telling me that he knew how to save Emily. Although I couldn't tell how true his words were or whether he was worth trusting, I still chose to hear him out. My heart harbored mostly doubts, but hope still lived on in a small corner. I hoped she could come back.
