Chapter 423 Goodbye
Finished
When he “betrayed” them, Bryce had faced a lot of scolding and misunderstanding from colleagues.
He never expected that the injustice he suffered back then would only be cleared up 26 years later.
Kayson apologized to Wesley, “I’m sorry we came too late.
‘We’ll never forget your father’s deeds and contributions.”
After saying this, Kayson looked at Wesley with a complicated expression, his eyes holding so much that he didn’t say out loud.
When Kayson left, Wesley stood there stunned, his mind blank. He didn’t know how to respond the right
way.
He just stood there for a long time, then slowly raised his eyes to look at Nella in front of him.
His eyes were red, and the corners of his mouth twitched as he tried to force a smile.
But no matter how hard he tried, his facial muscles felt like they had stopped working. They wouldn’t
nove.
I…” he started to speak, but in the end, no words came out.
Nella had once hated him, but now even she didn’t know what to say to Wesley.
After a long pause, she finally forced the words out between her teeth, “Your dad was a great man. You should be proud of him.”
Hearing this, Wesley finally laughed.
And with that laugh came a few tears dripping from the corners of his eyes.
‘So what? All the anger and hatred I’ve carried all these years… What’s it worth?”
Wesley’s vision were blurry with tears as he looked at Nella. “In the end, was it all just a joke?”
Nella opened her mouth, but she couldn’t answer.
“The things I did… I’ve even tarnished the honor he earned with his life, haven’t I?”
He was crying and laughing at the same time, his face full of despair, shame, and a bitter, almost painful irony.
“Nella… Do I look like a joke to you right now? The biggest joke ever?”
Wesley looked at her, his voice shaking.
Nella still didn’t know what to say. After a long pause, she finally spoke, “Wesley, turn yourself in.”
Hearing Nella call him “Wesley” again, his dark eyes flickered with a tiny spark of light. But when he heard

her words clearly, that spark dimmed again.

“If you turn yourself in, it’s some kind of justice for the innocent lives lost, and for your dad, too.”
She couldn’t find the right words to comfort him, and she didn’t know how.
Even though his father had been great, that didn’t erase the things Wesley had done for his own selfish desires.
Wesley shook his head, firmly refusing. “No way. I’m not turning myself in.”
He stepped a little closer to Nella and gently took her slim arm in his hand. He held it lightly, careful not to hurt her.
The look he gave her was full of sorrow, sadness, and a barely noticeable trace of longing.
“I know, you’ve already told my grandpa and uncle about me. And probably the police, too. But they don’t have enough evidence, right?”
His voice was soft. His hand gently brushed aside the hair that fell over Nella’s face, and he smiled.
“It’s useless, Nella. They can’t catch me. As long as I’m not convicted, I stay clean, and I won’t tarnish my dad’s honor.”
There was a touch of madness in his eyes, making Nella feel a little afraid.
“Sunny… I won’t call you that anymore. I’m sorry for always going against your wishes before.”
After saying this, he pulled his hand back from her arm, giving her a bitter smile. “Goodbye.”
