"I don't remember anything, Master Elliot! That’s all in the past. You should focus on the future. You should’ve burned all of these things a long time ago. You shouldn't let anything chain you down!"
"You were the person that my mother trusted the most. It's only natural that you don't blame me." Elliot smiled as he watched the CD being destroyed by the flames. "If I got another chance, I'll kill him myself all over again. He was a monster, but I'm an even more terrifying monster than he was." Over in Bridgedale, Avery walked into the bathroom and splashed her face with cold water after a long surgery.
She turned her phone back on and planned on getting Mike to come and pick her up.
However, her phone blew up with notifications the moment she turned it on!
Tammy: [I don't blame Elliot, Avery. What happened to me had nothing to do with him. Besides, he wouldn't have been able to retrieve his bargaining chip if it weren’t for Chelsea's help this time. I can understand that.]
Avery: [Sometimes, being too understanding makes it easier for you to be wronged.]
Tammy: [Do you know why I've come around? It's not that I'm that forgiving, but it's because Chelsea's now disfigured. Her face will never recover. She has to spend the rest of her life with that hideous face. If I became like that, I'm afraid I wouldn’t be able to live for another second longer. She won't be any better off than we were before.
Avery: [He who is unjust is doomed to destruction]
