On the way down the mountain, the three of them walked hand in hand, Anthony asked
Derila about the specifics, and Derila briefly recounted.
Uncle Lincoln kept his head down and did not say a word.
He did not scold Derila, nor did he ask for specifics, nor did he even show grief.
It seemed that he didn't react in any way except for that slip at the beginning.
He just bowed his head in silence, as if he was thinking about something.
"How outrageous, the president and his wife are so abominable, they fought with
Daemon, why did they bring you into it? And dragged my aunt into it."
Anthony shouted angrily in exasperation.
"It's my fault." Derila remembered her aunt's words and repented –
"Originally, you and Daemon were simply a matter of affection, but now that the things
will become extremely complicated, have you thought about the consequences?"
"If you stay, then you will have to face such things anytime in the future and have to be
on your toes every day, can you stand it?"
In fact, her aunt had foreseen all this long ago and had advised her bitterly, but she
hadn't listened.
Auntie knew that it would be dangerous, but she still righteously accompanied
Derila to face it, cleaned up the mess for her and relieved her.
In the end, she even gave her life to protect her.
Derila remembered again the words that her aunt once said, "Just be a naive child,
my aunt will protect you!"
Yes, she was really naive.
Many people advised her that it was a road to nowhere, but she just didn't listen and
dove in head first and end up like this.
"Derila, what are your plans for the future?"
Uncle Lincoln, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke up.
This question put Derila at a standstill, she didn't know how to answer.
When Daemon hid it from her and took Penny to M nation, she was very angry, but later
on, with her aunt's reminder, she understood Daemon's bitterness towards her and
chose to trust him.
From an emotional point of view, she and Daemon were in love with each other and
she also hoped to grow old with him, not to mention that she was now pregnant with his
child.
But from a rational point of view, she really didn't want to go back. Love is beautiful, but
reality is always cruel.
Even if Daemon returned safely, the war with the president had only just begun, and
there would be many setbacks and tribulations to go through in the future. Staying by
his side was like having countless time bombs that didn't know when another one would
explode.
She was not afraid of dying, but she was afraid of dragging the people around her down
with her.
She had already lost her aunt, she couldn't lose Uncle Lincoln and Anthony again, and
those orphanage children, and the baby in her belly! So ….
"Once I've avenged my aunt, I'll go back to S Nation." Derila quickly made a
decision.
"Fine, fine." Anthony nodded repeatedly, "It's long overdue to go back to S Nation, don't
come to this kind of right and wrong place in the future."
"Have you thought it through? If you want to go back to S Nation, that means you have
to give up your relationship with Daemon?" Uncle Lincoln asked seriously.
"Thought it through ……" Derila nodded heavily, "I'm still suitable to live that free
and heartless life, I don't want to be entangled in this kind of deceitful environment."
"Hmm." Uncle Lincoln nodded in relief, "It's right to think that way, you're still young and
have a long way to go, as good as Daemon is to you, it's really too dangerous to stay
by his side."
"Yes, yes." Anthony excitedly agreed, "Once we've avenged our auntie, we'll go back to
S Nation and never come back to this he_llhole again. Isn't that right, Uncle Lincoln!"
"Yes." Uncle Lincoln nodded and raised his eyes to look ahead, "Hang on a bit longer,
the car is parked on the roadside ahead."
They had driven up, the section of road at the top of the hill hadn't been opened up
before, the car couldn't get up there, so he had to take Anthony up the hill on foot.
