Daryl couldn't bear to listen to the rest of Cathy's conversation. He simply froze on the spot and felt as though an icy bucket of water had splashed down all over him.So, as it turned out, he was the one who had walked into a meticulous trap Cathy set up for him from the very beginning! Her so-called deep affection and forbearance for him had been nothing but an act!He never imagined that Cathy would turn out to be so vicious.He could still hear her laughing inside the room. Daryl clenched his fists, the last vestige of warmth in his eyes extinguishing.He stumbled out of the hospital and crouched over on the street, covering his face in anguish."I'm so, so sorry, Angela! I will find you! I promise I'll find you!"He then called Wilfred and got him to investigate Cathy's background. Since she dared to lie to him, he was going to settle every single score with her.Soon, Wilfred returned with a whole stack of evidence against Cathy that a hacker had provided. The evidence in

Daryl watched Cathy and Vince screaming at each other and felt utterly disgusted.When he was with Cathy and slept with her a couple of times, he used to think that he'd gotten addicted to her. But now, he wanted nothing more than to soak himself in a tub of bleach and get rid of every trace of Cathy's scent from his body.He felt even more guilty toward Angela now. He couldn't believe that he'd hurt the woman who loved him so much for the sake of a vicious woman like Cathy."Daryl!" Cathy exclaimed pitifully, still hugging his leg. "I hate Angela! I hate her with all my heart! Who gave her the right to gain your affection without even trying? Who gave her the right to be loved by everyone else since young? I just wanted to destroy her!"I'm the only one who loves you! Angela never loved you at all! You never saw her true colors! She's nothing but a scheming bitch! She'd been pretending to be good and put on a show for others to make them like her since young! Nothing she does is e

Daryl's arms fell limply to the sides. He didn't even notice that a few roses had fallen to the ground.He got Wilfred to send him the address for Angela's apartment and went over. When he arrived, he watched Angela return from the supermarket with the young man from before. They walked arm in arm, chatting merrily before heading upstairs.Daryl's heart ached terribly, but he didn't even have the guts to call out her name.He thought about it and wondered if Angela had felt the same heartache when he abandoned her and walked off with Cathy in his arms.After a long while, he took his phone out and sent Angela a text message with his new number."Angie. I'm in Alstaria. I want to meet you. I know that I did a lot of horrible things to you in the past. I'm not begging for your forgiveness. I just want to see how you're doing. Can we please meet up?"A long time after the message was sent, he finally got a reply."Sorry, but Angie is taking a shower right now. Can you bother her ag

Daryl didn't immediately return home after that.He remained in Alstaria for another month, going to Angela's office building and waiting downstairs for her every day without fail just to catch a glimpse of her from afar.He also received the court's verdict about Cathy and Vince. Cathy was sentenced to seven years in prison for intentional injury and instigating a kidnapping. As for Vince, he was sentenced to five years for his role as her accomplice.In prison, Cathy desperately pleaded to see Angela again. The letter traveled across the ocean and ended up in Daryl's hands. He burned it at once and said, "Stop causing trouble for Angela. She doesn't need your belated apology."Later, he heard that Cathy held on to the swallow-shaped diamond ring and kept acting like she was out of her mind in prison, babbling nonsense all day.In the end, she got into a brawl with a cellmate and hit her head hard, which left her in a vegetative state.Daryl felt nothing when he heard the news.
