After speaking, the felon tossed Jack onto the ground like a piece of garbage, then ordered his henchmen, "Since it's his last night, you guys can have your fun with him. He's just a piece of trash, as long as he doesn't die, you guys can do whatever you want."
That sentence had Jack going through a hellish night.
In the midst of the excruciating pain, he finally felt regret.
If he had known that Erica had powerful backers, he wouldn't have messed with her...
But his remorse was useless now.
All that awaited Jack was endless pain and torment.

After a few hours’ drive.
Erica and Larkin finally arrived at their destination.
Harmony Monastery, a place where Larkin had once stayed. Erica looked at it from a distance then turned to Larkin.
Larkin was staring at the entrance, lost in thought.
Feeling Erica's gaze, he snapped back to reality, "Let's get some fruit and flowers first."
"Okay!" Erica nodded.
Over the span of ten years, not much had changed outside the monastery.
Larkin quickly found a fruit shop.
The shop owner was an old woman in her sixties.
Seeing customers walk in, she immediately greeted them with a smile, "Are you here to buy some fruit?"
"Yes." Larkin responded, then named a few fruits in season.
The old lady, however, was staring at him while he spoke, "Sir, you look familiar. Have you been to my shop before?"
Larkin looked at the old lady, "Mrs. Parsons, it's me, Larkin."
