Alger wept bitterly. It took him a while to say, "Our little girl hurts so badly, yet she still asked us to forgive him."

No one had expected that when Crystal asked her father to come in, she wished for her father to forgive Clark.
She knew how her father gets and knew that seeing her in such a state, her father would definitely seek revenge for her.
She was afraid her father would vent his anger on Clark, even knowing she was on the brink of death.
She was still using her last bit of energy to protect this man.
Clark's eyes instantly reddened.
In this lifetime, he owed Crystal too much—way too much.
