"Freya, I've told you about this before. I've realized what I felt towards you was gratitude and not love. But my promise about always protecting you and not letting anyone hurt you will still be valid," Byron said.
"So, are you determined to be with Chelsea?" Freya asked.
Byron did not hesitate and answered, "Yes."
Freya laughed amid her cries and said, "Byron, do you love Athena that much?"
Byron still did not hesitate. "Yes, she's more important than my own life."
"Does Chelsea know that she's a substitute herself?" Freya mocked, "Will you develop feelings towards each other and eventually fall in love with that substitute instead of Athena?"
"Your question is meaningless," Byron replied.
Freya lowered her eyes and smiled dejectedly. "Yes, it's meaningless. The dead is always unbeatable, after all."
As she said that, she looked up at Byron again and said, "Byron, is it possible that Athena would never be able to defeat me if I died at that time?"
She tilted her head slightly, and the tears carrying all her grievances rolled down from the corners of her eyes.
She looked so sad and desperate.
Byron didn't answer.
He knew the answer, but he just didn't want to overly make Freya upset.
He had understood that his feelings for Freya were only gratitude for saving his life.
When he was young, he had mistakenly thought that it was love.
But since he had never loved Freya, Freya would never be able to compare with Thea.
"Freya, it's not worth holding yourself back for someone like me," Byron said seriously.
Freya gazed at him deeply.
When Athena died, Freya honestly thought that she would definitely be Byron's wife.
As a result, she waited for a year, two years, and three years, and when there was no woman around him anymore, everyone thought that Freya must be Mrs. Crawford.
But after two years passed, Chelsea appeared and shattered all her dreams.
The dead was always unbeatable, wasn't it?
Freya lowered her eyes and thought, "But how would the dead fight with me?"
