My Ex-Wife and Kids Came In Like A Wrecking Ball novel Chapter 1671

Byron approached Yves and questioned further, "So you’ve realized your past mistakes now?”

Upon hearing this, Yves smiled bitterly. "What's the point of knowing my mistakes? I can never forgive myself for thinking I almost killed Dr. Jacobs because of my selfishness."

He lifted his head, and his words were full of self-mockery and self-loathing.

"Humans are the greediest beings. At first, I just wanted to work with Dr. Jacobs. I was satisfied just with that. Later, I wanted to stand in the closest position to her and become her deputy. I also wanted to be like you and let her notice me. My greed grew by the day, and it stacked. I don't even know what I was doing back then."

There was still an inquisition in Byron's gaze, trying to distinguish the truth from the falsity of his words.

Yves sighed. "Now that I think about it, I made two mistakes. The slightest mistake could have led to a disaster, whether it was the initial fire or later in the experiment. Dr. Jacobs and many researchers at the institute might have died at my hands. I deserve what I’m getting today."

On the day he was arrested, he vented his feelings to Rosalie. However, the moment he got into the police car, he understood.

By then, it was too late to regret it.

After his conviction, Yves never thought of appealing.

All he wanted was to finish his sentence to feel less guilty.

"What are you going to do when you get out?" Byron suddenly asked.

Yves was startled for a moment. He had never thought of that.

He pondered for a few seconds before answering, "Maybe a free doctor. I'm a prisoner, and no institute or hospital should be willing to accept me. As a free doctor, I can cure people who trust me for free and pay back for my sins."

Byron had watched him long enough to ensure nothing he said was fake.

Maybe Byron was out of his mind.

"I hope you can go back to work in the institute when you get out of prison."

After finishing, he explained slowly, "As you said, you’re Rosie's longest partner. You did do something wrong before. However, you’re making up for it now. I can be sure you’re remorseful after seeing you today. So, please work by Rosie's side again after you serve your sentence."

Yves was still dumbfounded.

Byron's expression changed, and he sounded cold again.

"However, you’ll be under my supervision. If you ever think of hurting Rosie, I promise your punishment will be a thousand times worse than this."
