Kylin did not speak.
Yesseca lowered her head and clenched her fists tightly.
She knew that he must be blaming her, or hating her already.
No man would be able to accept something like this. Although they had not registered their marriage or completed the wedding, they were already practically married.
No man could tolerate his fiance giving her virginity to another man.
Yesseca sniffed.
She said, "Kylin, go ahead and scold me. I was wrong. I deserve it."
Even if she had had done it with Tremaine while semi-conscious, she was wrong to do so, and she was sorry for Kylin.
She hoped that he would scold her so that he could vent the hatred in his heart.
Hearing this, Selina was about to defend her when he suddenly stood up.
He walked towards Yesseca.
Then he bent down.
Their gazes were at the same level.
She was forced to look up to meet his gaze.
All kinds of complicated emotions surged in his eyes.
It was something she had never seen before.
The next second, Kylin suddenly hugged Yesseca tightly. His somewhat hoarse and choked voice sounded in her ears. "It's my fault for not protecting you. You're not wrong. It's me. I didn't protect you well."
She was shocked.
Her eyes were filled with disbelief.
He wasn't blaming her, not scolding her. Instead, he was blaming himself.
She panicked. "Kylin, you were not at fault. It was me. I wasn't a good person. I got married to you, but I had intimate relations with another man. I'm a sl*t..."
Kylin suddenly stretched out his hand and covered Yesseca's mouth with his hand.
The pain in his eyes deepened. "Stop it. Don't say that about yourself. You're a good person, and I know it."
Since he had covered her mouth, she couldn't speak. She responded by shaking her head.
All sorts of thoughts began to form in his head.
He loosened his grip and stared into her eyes. "I am going to say a few words. You must listen to me, alright?"
She swallowed the words that she was about to say.
His handsome face was pale and expressionless, but his eyes were sparkling as if there were a million stars in them. "When you decided to get married to me and to hold the wedding, you wanted to spend your whole life with me, am I right?"
She nodded her head.
"That was just an accident, right?" When he said this, he felt like his heart had been stabbed by a dagger, and blood was gushing out.
It was the same with her.
But she still managed to nod.
Kyi in s eyes darkened, and they became bottomless like the ocean. "Nothing is absolute in life. If you are still willing to be with me, and if you still love me, this would all be just an accident. I would understand." He paused for a moment, and his voice was tinged with iciness. "I know his identity, but as long as you are still willing to be with me, he couldn't take you away from me no matter what. But if..."
This time, he paused for a very long time, dragging his words. When Yesseca thought that he would not continue, he spoke, "If you love him, I will set you free."
When he said this, he thought about her hesitation on the day of their wedding. He had to endure the pain to finish his sentence.
Yesseca felt air flowing into her heart, filling it up, and it was crushing her heart continuously.
She looked at Kyi in, and her heart was about to jump out from her chest. "Do you still want me? Do you not mind?"
She thought he would push her away and leave her after what had happened, even if she did not initiate a breakup.
His expression froze. "Don't say such a thing. I said you were not at fault. You're you, and you are a good person."
Her mind was a mess.
What should she do now?
He still wanted her.
