Chapter 1687
Jeremy had always thought that he was of a calm disposition, but now, he was on edge.
Felipe was giving up on himself. As his nephew, Jeremy was extremely worried.
Jeremy knew that if Felipe were willing, Felipe could certainly avoid the death penalty. However, he seemed to have accepted his fate.
He had also thought that, after meeting with Cathy and learning that he had two children, Felipe would certainly aspire to continue living. On the contrary, the meeting only solidified his determination to walk resolutely towards death.
“Felipe, have you thought about it, truly?” Jeremy sought his confirmation yet again. “You only live once. There’s no turning back.”
After listening to Jeremy’s earnest reminder, Felipe seemed to be lost in contemplation.
A long while later, Felipe lifted his gentle and narrow eyes.
“Jeremy, I need your help for the final time.”
“Tell me.”
“I hope Cathy will have a blissful and carefree life from now on.”
“You can give her the bliss that she wants.”
Upon hearing his words, Felipe curled his lips into a small smile. “Her bliss would require a condition, and that would be for me to withdraw from her life.”
Jeremy frowned at this. “How in the world do you want me to help?”
Felipe only gave a mysterious smile. “Jeremy, I believe that with your ability, you’d certainly be able to assist me in performing this task with perfection.”
Jeremy stared at Felipe’s smiling face in confusion. Felipe’s words slowly made it clear to Jeremy what Felipe’s favor would entail.
Jeremy could deeply sense Felipe’s love for Cathy in his words.
He pitied them and felt a pang of heartache for Felipe.
