Carina's POV

I broke away from Eric's embrace.

Even if I could let go of everything from the past, there was no way I could let him go with such a big heart.

A year had passed and he seemed to have changed a lot, his face was firmer, but his eyes seemed softer, especially now when he looked at me like I had never been looked at before.

It's admirable that he can reduce some of his useless pride, but I'm thinking this from the standpoint of a bystander who has nothing to do with him. I didn't hate him just to spare myself, not to really forgive him....
