Catalina's tears broke.
Not a cry because Nick gripped his jaw, not a cry because the grip was very strong, not a cry because the grip was very painful. Nick is not the cause of his crying. But the crying happened because the pain coming from his heart was really real.
Everything, the rejection, rebuttal, elation and tepisan that he did was only part of his disbelief in the reality that was in sight. Just because it had not been plastered in front of him, he thought 'refusing to believe' was the only thing he could do.
But it turns out he was wrong.
The fact that he loves Sehan is a shame. Love made him think of many reasons. Reason to reject all of that.
He hates being betrayed by people he trusts, he hates being lied to by people he loves. That was the reason why he still refused and refused to admit it. Yet after being completely slapped by the circumstances, now he understood.
Right, it can't be selfish.
Whatever it is, it should not be just fixated on its own wound. He is not the only one who is hurt, he is not the only one who is hurt. Other than her being hurt by her own greed, Tatiana almost died from someone's actions.
And right, he wanted to know all the reasons. He wanted to know the reason why Sehan sent people periodically to see Tatiana's condition. He wanted to know why Sehan who already knew his identity chose to keep lying to him. He wanted to know why the woman wanted to kill Tatiana. He wants to know all the answers.
Tatiana who heard this conversation, also dropped her tears.
Tatiana knew how destructive Catalina was right now.
If he could move, if he could talk, he would hug Catalina and calm her down. But it is so useless. Not only could he not walk, he could not say anything even one word. He can't do anything when Catalina needs him.
Nick loosened his grip and helped her wipe away her tears. "Catalina, I let you enjoy your beautiful days but you're getting drowned in them. I'm happy to see you happy, but that happiness really blinds you. You forgot who to hunt. You forget what to pursue. And now I'm reminding you. So that you can get back on the road. Now that Tatiana is conscious, you must remember not to make mistakes. The enemy is still the enemy. Whatever the reason, they are still enemies. You can't forget that." Nick doesn't mind reminding Catalina of the things the girl forgot about. As much as anything, he was willing to do it.
Catalina looked at Nick after managing to put her thoughts together. "You're right, Nick. I was wrong." Catalina shook Nick's hand and got up and walked to the window. He folded his hands on his chest and looked out the window with a sharp look.
Catalina became strong in an instant as if the one that had just cried and shattered was not her. He managed to forget all the pain after removing all helplessness in him.
Being weak is a tragedy.
And it cannot be weak. Really can't.
Nick looked at his wet hands with Catalina's tears before getting up and walking towards the sofa. He sat himself down and leaned his back against the back of the sofa. "It's good that you realize it" he said.
"However, you know, this pain is really waking me up. Now I'll never hesitate, now I'll never waver." Catalina laughs. "really stupid. I'm really stupid, aren't I? I was crying over a man who was most likely involved in Tatiana's accident. You should be angry. Facing a fool, it should indeed slap him a little." Catalina never blamed Nick. Never once was.
That guy is too right.
That guy was right.
His folly of being immersed in feelings that he believes are true. Her stupidity for thinking Sehan sincerely loved her. His selfishness in feeling that he has got the world in his hands. Now he realized that it was all an illusion.
Happiness, love, affection, all that is just nonsense.
Now it's time to wake up from the dream.
Now it's time to forget that disgusting dream.
Nick was silent, not responding. He doesn't know how to entertain. He only knows how to wake up. He only knows how to wake someone from a deceiving dream.
Catalina took a long breath. He knew sooner or later his relationship with Sehan would end. However, he did not expect that their relationship would end so soon. That means, the breakup, it shouldn't be this bad.
He thinks they can still exchange news and Sehan can invite him if one day the man finds a suitable girl to marry. He thought they could still make friends and visit each other. But hope is only hope.
That man was the worst man he ever knew.
The situation became silent for a while until Nick's hoarse voice broke the silence. "You know who tried to kill Tatiana?"
"Yes, you're right. Pamela was the cause of the accident" Nick said. "And you ask me, where does Pamela's hatred come from." - Chapter 92-
"Uh huh's. But you didn't answer." Catalina always wondered about the reason for Pamela's hatred for Tatiana. But as much as he searched, he still found no reason. Even until this second, he was still curious, which part of Tatiana made him envious.
"Are you still curious?" ask Nick.
Catalina nodded. "I'm always curious."
"Should I tell you?"
Catalina turned her head, looking at Nick with a slight smile on her lips. "I thought you knew it." But of course the man will not say it before he gets karma for all his bad deeds. Loving his sister's fiancee, maybe this was the price he had to pay.
"I have a reason why I didn't say it."
"You want to wait until I realize?" guess Catalina.
"M."
"I'm always sober, Nick. I'm not drunk."
"You're love drunk."
Catalina chuckles. "Yes, you're right. I'm love drunk. So drunk it's stupid." But it is natural, because in addition to making happy, falling in love can make someone stupid.
According Prof. Robin Dunbar, an evolutionary psychologist from the University of Oxford, argues that rational parts of the human brain are closed when a person is in love. And that has been proven through a series of studies.
So if he became stupid for loving Sehan, he would not blame himself too much. Blame the man for being too seductive.
"At least you can learn a lot from that stupidity" Nick sneered. But it is also an input. Do not repeat the same stupidity.
"Although a little embarrassing, I admit it." Catalina walked towards the sofa, then laid her body there. He closed his eyes and used his arms to cover his eyes. "Now say, why does Pamela hate Tatiana so much? My cute and adorable Tatiana doesn't have a pleasant life, but why is she so envious?" Catalina turned the discussion to the original topic. He will not allow himself to be the object of discussion anymore. Moreover, the title of the tagline is 'stupidity out of love'. Haish, that's so embarrassing. Totally disgraceful.
Remembering something, Catalina opened her eyes. "Say one reason that makes the most sense, Nick. That's all I need. Because after that I can conclude it myself," he added.
"Yes, yes, I know," said Nick.
"So?" Catalina asked casually.
"Pamela is Lexus' fiancee."
Catalina surprised. "What's? What did you say?" He forced his body to sit down and looked at Nick in disbelief. He felt his ears were a little troubled. He hears Nick say Pamela is Lexus' fiancee. Something that is clearly impossible.
Lexus is Sehan's younger brother. So then..
Waitaminute!
Catalina.
Makes sense.
Actually, it all makes a lot of sense.
Lexus is Sehan's younger brother. Not only that, he is also Pamela's fiancee. If that's true, it's no wonder Nick said the accident that hit him and hit Tatiana was done by the same person but covered by different people, so... this? - chapter 89-
Pamela was the cause of the accident and Sehan helped Pamela cover up the case?
