Cornelia said, "Mr. Rivera."
Zavier replied, "Spill it."
Cornelia continued, "If Skyler is really alive and if you can find her, I hope you can respect her choices, not to disturb her life. Let her live as she wishes."
Zavier asked, "Has Skyler ever talked about me?"
Cornelia said, "Yes.”
Zavier asked, "Can you tell me what she said?"
Zavier this time looked more matured, no longer as crazy as before, and Cornelia believed that he was slowly changing. She said, "Skyler said she used to really like you. But your coldness after marriage made her slowly lose trust in you. And those things you did to her made her want to run away from you."
Cornelia looked at Zavier, "As for what you've done, you should know better than me, no need for me to say."
Zavier stayed silent.
Cornelia looked at Zavier's hair, which turned gray overnight due to Skyler's death. Zavier must have Skyler in his heart, but he just expressed love in the wrong way.
Cornelia continued, "I sincerely hope Skyler is still alive, living freely and happily as she wishes. So I really hope you can accept my advice. If you find her one day, don't disturb her life. Knowing she's doing well is enough. Can you do that?"
Zavier counter-asked, "You really don't know where Marc is?"
Cornelia shook her head.
Zavier said, "Well, since you sincerely care for Skyler, I'll tell you something."
