Asher continued, “After his identity was exposed, K abandoned him, and the Overcast besieged him. Traitors ultimately had one fate—death.”
“So... back when you were The Matrix, did you execute him?” Bella’s voice trembled lightly, chills spreading through her body.
Asher closed his eyes weakly, shaking his head in pain. “When I succeeded as the leader, I swore an oath that I would never kill anyone. That was my bottom line. But at that time, everyone pressured me to personally execute him.”
Bella felt suffocated, her heart racing.
“In order not to make things difficult for me, he took the gun from my hands and shot himself.”
When Asher spoke of the incident again, his tone was calm and deep. If not for his bloodshot eyes, Bella might have thought he was recounting someone else’s story.
How could anyone watch a loved one commit suicide before their eyes?
If she were in his place, she might have picked up that gun without hesitation and followed him.
“Enough, it’s all in the past... All in the past...” Asher murmured hoarsely. He pressed his chest with his battered hands as if trying to press down the bleeding wound on his heart.
“Ash, I regret his death. But I still have one question to clarify.”
Bella looked at him intensely, speaking each word carefully. “Did you choose to be with Arnold because of their resemblance?”
Asher gripped the photo tightly. He lowered his head and ran his tongue over his teeth harshly.
