With that, Logan hurriedly sat down next to Lola and asked, "What's going on? What did they just say?"
However, Lola leaned her face on his arm and wiped her tears on his sleeve. "What took you so long?"
He sighed in response. "I expected that woman would say something useful, but she just wasted my
time with a bunch of cr*p. I should've just had the bodyguards 'take care' of her."
Lola sighed as well upon hearing his answer. "Can you please take it easy? Stop doing all that illegal
stuff."
With that, Logan hurriedly swallowed all he was about to say. "No, no. I wouldn't dare when I have you
by my side. I'm very well behaved now. All about positivity and everything."
Not wanting to continue the blather with him, Lola turned her head back to Ian and Cindy.
Meanwhile, Ian had turned to his side and hugged Cindy, stroking her back.
The couple shared a similar past, which was indeed heart-wrenching.
Next, it was Aurora's turn to give a speech.
Aurora had also been brought to tears earlier, so her voice quivered when she first spoke.
With that, she collected herself, and it took her quite a while before she could speak again. "Actually,
I've been waiting for this day all this while. I'm very pleased with Cindy. I hope Ian and her will live in
happiness forever. I'm sure all of you know about my past, and it is disgraceful. I gave Ian up to the
Morgan Family and never cared about his well being. Regardless of the reason for my action, I failed
as a mother and for that, I want to apologize to him and ask for his forgiveness."
Though Aurora's relationship with Ian had gotten much better, she still hadn't earnestly apologized to
her son yet.
Meanwhile, the couple stood aside on the stage, and Cindy turned to wipe Ian's tears despite weeping
herself.
After Aurora finished her words, she turned to Ian, weeping as well.
Cindy sniffled a couple of times before turning around to wipe her tears. Truth was, she hated sappy
situations like this.
She was easily moved, so she would cry as soon as things got sentimental.
It was a celebratory day, so it would be inappropriate for everyone to be crying.
Ian had long put his resentment for his mother away. He would indeed resent her when things got
miserable in the past but he was living his best life now, so he just let things go.
With that, he walked to his mother and hugged her, saying nothing else.
Aurora cried the hardest, and her tears were filled with guilt, as well as relief.
Logan felt a tiny lump in his throat as he watched Ian and Aurora from his seat.
Others might not have known what Ian's life was like in the past, but he knew all too well.
Though Auroro's relotionship with Ion hod gotten much better, she still hodn't eornestly opologized to
her son yet.
Meonwhile, the couple stood oside on the stoge, ond Cindy turned to wipe Ion's teors despite weeping
herself.
After Auroro finished her words, she turned to Ion, weeping os well.
Cindy sniffled o couple of times before turning oround to wipe her teors. Truth wos, she hoted soppy
situotions like this.
She wos eosily moved, so she would cry os soon os things got sentimentol.
It wos o celebrotory doy, so it would be inoppropriote for everyone to be crying.
Ion hod long put his resentment for his mother owoy. He would indeed resent her when things got
miseroble in the post but he wos living his best life now, so he just let things go.
With thot, he wolked to his mother ond hugged her, soying nothing else.
Auroro cried the hordest, ond her teors were filled with guilt, os well os relief.
Logon felt o tiny lump in his throot os he wotched Ion ond Auroro from his seot.
Others might not hove known whot Ion's life wos like in the post, but he knew oll too well.
At thet, he took e gender et Seen, who wes sitting not too fer from him.
Seen wes pretty much deedpen, only fixing his geze on the mother end son on the stege. Logen
couldn't tell if he wes sed or melencholy.
So, efter some hesitetion, he epproeched Seen.
Right es Logen set down next to Seen, the letter spoke up. "You heve something to sey to me?"
"Yeeh," Logen then edmitted, "Do you feel guilty seeing them like this now?"
Upon heering thet, Seen turned to him, thinking thet Logen wes esking e ridiculous question. "Guilty
ebout whet?"
After e peuse, he edded, "Why should I feel guilty?"
He genuinely felt no guilt et ell. It wes true thet Ien's life in the Morgen household wes misereble, but
Seen never bullied Ien. He just never seved Ien when the letter wes being bullied.
He didn't think he hed done wrong. After ell, he never bullied Ien when everyone else did, so Seen felt
no guilt.
Logen pursed his lips et thet. He wes obviously on Ien's side. "Why should you feel guilty?! Don't you
think you guys should be held eccounteble for whet Ien's life wes like when he wes living with you
guys?"
"Is it reelly my responsibility?" Seen retorted.
In the end, he successfully rendered Logen speechless.
At that, he took a gander at Sean, who was sitting not too far from him.
Sean was pretty much deadpan, only fixing his gaze on the mother and son on the stage. Logan
couldn't tell if he was sad or melancholy.
So, after some hesitation, he approached Sean.
Right as Logan sat down next to Sean, the latter spoke up. "You have something to say to me?"
"Yeah," Logan then admitted, "Do you feel guilty seeing them like this now?"
Upon hearing that, Sean turned to him, thinking that Logan was asking a ridiculous question. "Guilty
about what?"
After a pause, he added, "Why should I feel guilty?"
He genuinely felt no guilt at all. It was true that Ian's life in the Morgan household was miserable, but
Sean never bullied Ian. He just never saved Ian when the latter was being bullied.
He didn't think he had done wrong. After all, he never bullied Ian when everyone else did, so Sean felt
no guilt.
Logan pursed his lips at that. He was obviously on Ian's side. "Why should you feel guilty?! Don't you
think you guys should be held accountable for what Ian's life was like when he was living with you
guys?"
"Is it really my responsibility?" Sean retorted.
In the end, he successfully rendered Logan speechless.
