Chapter 118

With his words hanging in the air, he left the bar and got into his car alone. He lit a cigarette, taking a deep drag

in an attempt to calm his inner turmoil.

But the memories he had deliberately suppressed rushed back like a tide, completely overwhelming him.

He remembered their first ttogether.

Aurelia lying beneath him, her face flushed with shyness, her eyes full of trust and love.

"Nolan, will you loveforever?"

He had kissed her forehead tenderly. "Of course | will. I'll love you until becoming old."

Her body had trembled slightly, her eyes showing a mixture of nervousness and anticipation.

Nolan's movements had been gentle and slow, as if afraid of hurting her.

His fingers had traced lightly over her skin, feeling her warmth and heartbeat.

Her breathing had quickened, her eyes gradually misting with desire.

"Nolan, that feels so good..." she had whispered, her voice quivering.

He had claimed her lips, swallowing her words.

His movements had gradually intensified, their breaths intertwining as if they might meld into one another's very

essence.

Her fingers had gripped his back tightly, nails digging into his skin as if afraid he might suddenly vanish.

In that moment, Nolan's heart had been filled with contentment and happiness.

He knew then he could never let her go.

Nolan's hand tightened on the steering wheel, his knuckles whitening from the pressure.

His body responded involuntarily, his mind filled with images of Aurelia.

Her smile, her tears, her tenderness, her betrayal... everything seemed to link together in this moment.

He closed his eyes, his fingers sliding down to his pants as he began to masturbation.

All the emotions he had deliberately suppressed were released in this moment.

His breathing grew rapid, beads of sweat forming on his forehead until finally, he climaxed and collapsed back

into the seat, as if drained of all energy.

In that moment of release, he knew he was surrendered.

He could no longer deceive himself. No matter how much he hated Aurelia, no matter how hard he tried to forget

her, his heart could not fet her goShe was his mother's killer, someone he could never forgive, but she was also

the person he loved most in this world.

By dawn, he had smoked an entire pack of cigarettes.

The floor was littered with cigarette butts.

He made a decision and drove to the cemetery.

Rain poured down in sheets, striking the ground like broken strings of pearls, splashing water in all directions.

The cemetery was deserted except

for Nolan, kneeling motionless before his mother's gravestone, Rain streamed down his hair, face, and clothes,

soaking him completely, but he seemed oblivious to it.

His gaze was fixed on his mother's photograph on the tombstone. That kind and gentle face now filled with

ground.

"Mom..." Nolan's voice was hoarse and low, as if forced from the depths of his throat. "I'm sorry."

His voice was swallowed by the sound of rain, as if it had never existed. Images of Aurelia kept flashing through

his mind, each memory cutting into his heart like a knife, making it almost impossible to breathe.

He knew it was shameful to keep thinking about Aurelia. She was his mother's killer, someone he could never

forgive.

But why did his heart still drift to her involuntarily? Why did he still cling to her despite his hatred?

"Mom, I've tried... | really have..." Nolan's voice trembled. "But I still love her."
