Chapter 0263
“Say something, Ave, Travis says in an almost pleading tone.
I just stare at them. I’m not really sure what the hell to feel. Father and I have never
gotten along. Especially after what happened between Rowan, Emma, and me. I would
never wish that he was dead, but I also can’t really say that I’m sad.
Does that make me a bad person? That the man I’ve known as my father my entire life is
dead, yet I don’t feel any kind of sorrow?
“I don’t know what to say,” I mumble, telling them nothing but the truth.
Rowan guides me and helps me take a seat. We sit on opposite sides with the three people
who are supposed to be my family members.
I look at them, then shake my head in confusion. I used to feel a lot for them. Despite their
cruelty, my love for them wasn’t something that I could hide. Now, though, I feel nothing.
The place where my love for them used to reside is completely empty. There is absolutely
no trace of any feelings towards them.
It makes me wonder what the hell happened. Why is it that I no longer feel anything for
them?
I watch Rowan from the corner of my eyes. I become even more confused by his sudden
affection
towards me.

If there is someone who destroyed me, it’s Rowan. His actions hurt more than my family
has
ever done to me.
‘So why do you still love him, yet feel nothing for your family?‘
First of all, they’re not my family. If what Rowan told me is true, then Nora and Theo are
my parents. Second, I have no answer for that. I should hate Rowan for everything he’s
done to me, yet I didn’t. I don’t know why my love for him is still there while my love for
my so–called family is nonexistent.
“I’m sure you have a lot of questions,” Mother says after a stretch of silence.
“How did he die? What happened? Was he sick?”
He was a healthy man, but sometimes sickness just strikes without warning. Maybe that
was what
happened.
“He was shot,” Travis answers.

“Reaper,” I murmur “I heard you mention him yesterday.”
Mother, Travis, and Emma’s looks turn frosty.
