Chapter 57 Taken To The Palace

• Before sunrise, Mateo showered and got ready to leave. He then entered his son's room and watched him for a moment. Before leaving, he tenderly kissed the boy's forehead, taking great care not to wake him. Ava accompanied him to the door, and tears streamed down her face uncontrollably. Mateo wiped them away with his fingers.
• "Don't cry, my love. I'll be back soon, and this nightmare will be over. That man must pay for everything he's done. We need to live in peace, and we can't do that while he's still free."
• "I hope so. Please take care, remember that your son and I will be waiting for you," she said, giving him her blessing and bidding farewell with a kiss.
