Jiang Yue froze when she heard Gideon's confirmation. Her body became rigid as she felt a gush of coldness in her soul. Like a bucket of cold water was poured all over her being. His words seemed to still echo inside her.
Fu Jin's death…
Fu Jin's death…
She lowered her head and closed her eyes, as fear tightly clutched her chest. For the first time ever, Jiang Yue felt so much fear, she was shaking inwardly. She took shallow breaths as she tried to find a way to release the tension inside her. She couldn't let her emotions overpower her judgment. She needed to use her logic and think rationally.
She couldn't let her raging emotions muddle her mind…
Fu Jin…
Fu Jin…
Jiang Yue clenched her other hand, her knuckles turning white.
"You don't have to be so sad… You can always find a new fiancée. Weaknesses are actually life-threatening. They must be taken care of sooner or later." She heard Gideon add. His voice was righteous as if he was a father… giving her some advice.
