Ivan's heart suddenly sank. He didn't expect that after he forced Emilia to faint, he still couldn't get Emilia's master personality to wake up.
Using such tactics before had supposedly worked. He knew that from Zac, but this time, it hadn't worked.
He could hardly hide the heavy look on his face as the woman laughed in front of him.
"What do you mean by that look? I didn't ask you to do anything harmful. The most outrageous request I have made is for you to kiss me and this is the look you're actually giving me. I told you a long time ago that she just looks strong, and this time, she is really stimulated to shut her down. Do you think it's that easy to get her to wake up?"
Ivan asked, looking up as soon as the woman finished speaking.
"If you knew it was so difficult, then why did you say before that you would let her come back if I promised you that I would meet your demands? I don't believe you can decide if she comes back or not."
The woman laughed when he finished his sentence.
"You've finally smartened up for a moment. Obviously, I was teasing you then, and you just didn't fall for it."
Her comment made Ivan inexplicably angry.
But the person in front of her was also Emilia, and there was no way she could bear all of Emilia's emotions and thoughts.
He shouldn't blame the person in front of him. Ivan sighed.
"What exactly do I have to do for you to feel comfortable and not make a scene?"
"I want to know what love is, and what it's like to be loved. Don't you love me? Even though I'm only a part of her, you should love me too. Isn't love supposed to be about liking each other and being happy with each other? Why don't I feel that way? Why won't you even kiss me? I'm not happy ..."
"What else do you want besides this request?"
Until now, Ivan had been reluctant to be close to the person in front of him. Because he didn't know if Emilia would hate the action once her mind was joined to hers.
"But isn't love in dramas all about love and kissing and hugging each other and being intimate with each other in bed when you're deeply in love? That's what I want too. In fact, it's easy if you make me disappear, as long as I know the meaning of my existence."
Her words made Ivan ask excitedly.
"What exactly do you want me to do? Just ask. I don't believe a kiss is enough to show you what love feels like. That's certainly not what you want."
"I want to know what love feels like. I want to know what it feels like so badly. I can feel that I like you, but I can't experience the joy of liking each other. I want to know what it's like. If you could make me feel that way, I would leave."
"That's also the reason I exist. She doesn't know what love is. In fact, I don't either. She separated herself from her emotions and wanted me to take them on. But I was clueless too. Before I passed out, I was actually just tormenting you on purpose. I just wanted to make a scene and see what you would do to me. I didn't know what to do."
Her words suddenly made Ivan's heart ache in particular. He took the initiative this time and stepped forward to gently embrace the person in front of him.
"I'm sorry. You didn't feel this way because I didn't do it right."
"Then do you know what to do?"
The woman asked in a confused voice. She no longer had that seductive look in her every move that she had made when they first met but was truly opening herself up and speaking of her doubts and what she was asking for.
"I don't know. Because I was once a fool too, and I have never been able to make you feel trusted. All I know is that I should respect your actions unless you go and do something to hurt yourself. I want to protect you. I don't know what else I can do. If you want to do something now, I'll just go with you. I think there is no concrete explanation for love, but rather to feel it with your heart. Since you want to feel this feeling, what do you want to do? I'll just go with you to play."
"Then can you take me to see him first? He's my father, right? I want to see Oscar one more time."
"Okay, I'll take you to see him."
After getting Emilia all dressed up, the two of them went out with the bodyguards and took the car to Oscar's current place.
Oscar wasn't at work today. He had his own house in the city.
The two knocked on the door outside the villa and as soon as they revealed their identities, the butler came and opened the door and took them inside.
Inside the house, Oscar was sitting in the living room with a newspaper. Seeing the two of them enter, Oscar put the paper down and then looked up and smiled lightly at them.
"Come and sit down. Have you guys eaten anything yet? What would you like to drink ..."
Emilia, however, slowly walked up to Oscar at this moment. She was not Emilia's master personality and was able to restrain her sorrow and anger.
She could feel all the emotions in her master's body.
"I've put up with this for so long-"
As soon as she finished the words, she slapped Oscar across the face.
It seemed that when a daughter hit her father, she would be scorned by the world. Yet this personality of Emilia's was not at all sorry.
This action made the servants and the housekeeper in the house freeze. Ivan was a little shocked, but he did not do anything. Instead, he stood by Emilia's side, in case Oscar did something to hurt Emilia.
Oscar froze for a moment and then asked calmly.
"If slapping me would make you feel better, you can slap me again."
"Nice try! If I do slap you a few more times and hurt you to the bone, you'll be so happy and you'll feel no more guilt in your heart. Oscar, you say you did four stupid things, but one day, you'll say you did five. You'll be sorry that you did this to me. You personally got a surrogate to give birth to me, and then you abandoned me without hesitation. You've regretted it all your life, and you'll continue to regret it later."
Her words silenced Oscar for a moment, and he looked up at the woman in front of him and said.
"You are not her. What happened to her? Why did she let you out?"
Emilia laughed.
"Does it matter if I'm her or not? I'm a part of her too. She's so sad about you that she's shutting herself up. Then I will bear all her sadness and anger. I don't think you deserve to be her father, and people like you should be deserted by your family and friends."
"There is no turning back in this world. Is it possible that if I make up for you now, you will agree to it?"
As soon as Oscar said this, Emilia suddenly burst into laughter.
Then she said with mockery.
"Look, this is how you've been all your life. You think you've done wrong and no one else will ever forgive you, so you don't even try to redeem yourself or atone for your sins. You're just a selfish villain. You don't deserve affection, and you don't deserve love."
"Margie had the bad luck of meeting you. And I was created by you, so let's say I owe you in my last life. Where is Margie? I need to see her."
Ivan hadn't expected Emilia to ask that, and Oscar smiled gently.
"She's at home, in the house where we used to be. You'll see her when you get back. Your grandfather told her not to go out anymore, and I told her not to go out either, so she stays at home and then tends to the flowers and watches TV shows every day like she always does. What's the point of you seeing her? If I still owe you, she doesn't owe you anything. It was always me who was sorry for her."
"You know you're sorry, too? But I just want to see her. If I don't do something myself, I'll probably be the first one to break down."
With that, Emilia turned her head and took Ivan's hand as she prepared to leave.
However, when she reached the door, she turned back to Oscar.
"You're a coward, the dumbest coward in the world!"
