Chapter 112

Travis was shocked. He'd known Aidan for twenty years, but he had never seen him like this... Grief tugged at Aidan's heart, and his tears fell onto Eliana's arm. Travis came forward to pull him up. He was a little worried. "Aidan, don't..." Aidan grasped Travis's arm tightly and said bitterly, "I'm a sinner. Travis, I killed her. I helped those people kill her. It's me... Travis, tell me what should I do... to get Ellie back." Seeing Aidan in such a state, Travis didn't know how to comfort him. Aidan turned around and sat down beside Eliana. He held her again, pressing his cheek against hers and his tears slid down her face. He didn't dare to raise his voice, fearing that he would frighten Eliana. He pleaded softly, "Ellie, I was wrong. I'll give you my life. Just wake up, okay? Please, Ellie, please." He turned his head and kissed Eliana gently on her eyebrows, cheeks, and lips. "Ellie, as long as you wake up, I'll die if you want me to. All I want is for you to wake up. What do you say? Hmm? Ellie..." Watching Aidan, Travis' eyes rimmed red. How could he make Aidan understand that Eliana was dead, and that she wouldn't come back? Aidan would go mad if this went on. Travis sighed. He grabbed Aidan's collar, and forced him to look at him. "Aidan, look at me." Aidan tried to struggle out of his grip and crawl back to Eliana's side. But Travis raised his arm and swung his fist at him, landing a heavy punch on his face. It was as if Aidan couldn't feel pain. He continued crawling back to Eliana. Travis had no choice but to pull him up again. He roared furiously, "Aidan, Please listen to me!" Aidan lifted his eyes and looked at Travis feebly. Travis sighed, "Aidan, you've been deceived. Someone used your name to torture Eliana in prison. Yes, it's partially your fault, but the person who used your name to hurt Eliana is the main culprit. Eliana is dead, you can grieve and you can be sad, but you have to avenge her." Aidan froze for a moment and stared into Travis' eyes. Seeing the look in Aidan's eyes, Travis knew that he had gotten through to him . He added quickly, "You're Eliana's husband. Are you going to let her suffer this humiliation and torture for nothing? Aidan's face was full of grief, but his fists were clenched tightly. No! He couldn't let Eliana have suffered in vain. Aidan had done Eliana wrong. He needed to pay for his sins. But... those people who had hurt Eliana needed to pay the price! Aidan pulled himself away from Travis. He turned and caressed Eliana's face, with a gentle voice, saying. "Ellie, wait for me here. Don't worry, I won't let those who hurt you go and I will make them suffer. I'll be back once I avenge you." After that, he kissed Eliana's lips gently and took one last look at her. Then, he got out of the bed and left the room. Travis breathed a sigh of relief inwardly. He bowed to Eliana and then turned to leave the room. He stopped Robert, who was about to head downstairs and whispered to him, "The weather is too hot. We can't leave Eliana's body here any longer. Call Auntie later and tell her to bring Connor here to handle it." Robert hesitated. "But..."
