On it were Nicholas' strong, determined words."Wait for me to atone for my sins. Wait for me to come to you."Staring at t
"All the mistakes began with me, so today, I will end them."Because of my actions, those who deserved punishment were able to evade justice for four long years. I am willing to cooperate with the police investigation, provide the necessary evidence, and take full legal responsibility for any past a
