Blare finished moving her things in a span of a week. She exhaled with satisfaction while looking at her new place. The white walls were decorated with paintings that Lilith had created. Yes, the woman was talented in architectural painting and even dancing.

Blare recalled in Lilith's memory that she stopped painting 2 years ago. Right where she found out that Aiken had a new lover. As for dancing, the woman was fond of ballroom dancing. Though it was never put into action because she never joined a competition and just didn't feel like dancing again.

"With all these talents, why in the world would she choose to build a Business Empire?! Wait... Donate to charities as well" When Blare mentioned charities, she saw the image of Clara falling to her death. Under Clara's pencil skirt was a pool of blood.

Miscarriage.

Blare understood what Lilith wanted.

"... Charities for women who miscarry... and mothers who fell into madness after losing their child..." As she said that, a new memory of Lilith was sent in her soul.

When Lilith was being raped in prison, she became pregnant. After she was brought to the hospital, two doctors came and made her abort the child forcefully. Lilith was aware that Aiken ordered the doctors. She was physically weak and couldn't fight back. Then she was sent into prison again, got pregnant repeatedly. Until her womb can no longer carry a child.

Tears flowed into Lilith's dull eyes when she received the news that multiple forced abortions made her infertile. She died, not because she was raped repeatedly. She died from extreme sadness, pain, and regret falling in love with Aiken Charleston.

Blare put her two hands on her parted lips. Tears flowed from her eyes as she weeps painfully.

Blare remembered the detailed suffering of Lilith Winterburn. Since she was remembering from Lilith's perspective, Blare herself, felt like it happened to her. But she was not crying because of that, she was crying because she pitied and feared Lilith's state.

But Blare understood Aiken's hatred. At this point, she can only understand why the man made Lilith suffer. Blare cannot pick a side. Both suffered, but the other was cruelly tortured.

Blare tried to feel Lilith's emotions through the body. She really felt nothing to Aiken and Clara. No anger, pain, and sadness. Blare was sure that the reason why she felt nothing in Lilith's body was that she understood the extent of Aiken's revenge on her.

Lilith thought that she deserved it. But Blare thought the opposite, Lilith did not deserve to suffer like that. She understood the man's hatred, but she's against torture.

Blare was a person who believed that a vengeful person can never have a happy life. Killing someone emotionally and physically can have two effects, it can either be satisfying or it won't be.

For normal people like Blare, she believed that it can never satisfy the person. Instead, it would prolong the unpleasantness of the original offence.

A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.

Blare would rather fight in court to get the justice she deserves. And after successfully gaining justice, she would surely be satisfied and would never carry any unpleasant feelings in her heart. Still, she would not forgive nor forget.

Thinking about Lilith's actions, she had really gone too far when she pushed Clara in the stairs. Blare can only frown in regret.

'... Then, Lilith, from now on we're going to curve your path and avoid your mistakes. (deep breath) Avoid falling in love as well, you're dangerous when you fall in love.' Blare shakes her head in regret.

Blare's face turned sour and her satisfied mood a while ago deteriorated. She sat on the sofa comfortably with her right palm on her chin.

"Good men are scarce, tsk. I'm not expecting great things in this world." Blare frowned. After several minutes, she stood up and took a bath.

______________

Aiken sat in his office while reviewing a pile of documents.

Aiken Charleston is the CEO of the Emerald Corporation that is under the Sapphire Conglomerate. Basically, he is one of the most powerful businessmen in the city of London ever since he handled one of the business corporations of the Sapphire Conglomerate at the age of 21.

A light knock was heard and his secretary, Travis Scott entered,

"Sir, a woman is here to see you. She said that you already know who she is" Travis informed,

Aiken looked up and twitched one of his eyebrows in annoyance, "Tell Lilith to go away and never bother me." he said, irritation was clear on his voice.

'I thought that her being silent for two weeks was going to be forever.' he thought as he turned his attention on the documents.

"Sir... It's not Miss Lilith.." Travis worriedly looked at his angry boss.

"What?" Aiken shot his attention to his secretary. He was baffled to know that it was not Lilith. Who could blame him? Lilith was actually coming to his company almost every day and would seduce him with her skin tight dresses. Even though Aiken would block her entrance, Lilith would then wait for him in the parking lot in the Emerald Company.

Now, how could Lilith enter the parking lot of the Emerald Company?

The woman has her ways. Either through bribery or stealthily sneaking in.

Two weeks ago, Maiko arrived in the parking lot and before Lilith could attack her, Aiken came and slapped the woman.

Aiken immediately fake a cough and awkwardly asked, "Who is it?"

"She did not identify herself sir" Travis answered instinctively.

"Ugh! You're so cruel brother!" a woman in her early 20s barged in the office and Travis widened his eyes in shock.

Travis was not informed that this girl was his boss's sister. He can only lower his head and shrink in the corner.

Aiken saw his sister and massage the bridge of his nose. He dismissed his secretary and once the secretary left, he looked at his sister.

"What? I just came to visit!" His sister, Flora Charleston sat on the sofa in his office.

"What do you want?" Aiken sighed and mindlessly scanned the documents.

Flora noticed her brother's tired expression, "Did Lilith bother you again?"

Aiken flinched but quickly regained composure, "No, she stopped harassing Clara and me two weeks ago"

Flora nodded and hummed. Flora did not know anything much about Lilith, but she knows that the woman was kind. During her senior high school, Lilith had helped her to hide a big dot of period blood on her skirt by tying an oversized jacket over her waist.

During those times, she did not know the identity of Lilith. But Flora discovered that it was her when she saw Lilith and her brother together at the University.

Flora had actually never witnessed Lilith crazed state, so she was neutral about his brother's perspective on the woman.

"Flora, I need to work. Can you just play around with your friends?" Aiken was feeling irritated.

"Jeez, fine. I just wanted to familiarize myself with the corporate world! You're so moody, hmp!" Flora stomps her foot and walks out of his office.

After Flora left, Aiken exhaled and slouch a little on his chair.

He was in a daze. Then he remembered the image of Lilith's smiling face back when they're in University.

Aiken closed his eyes and straightened his sitting position. He fully knows that he still loves Lilith. And knowing that she had given up on him pained his heart.

Aiken Charleston loves Lilith Winterburn the first time he saw her and even until now.
