That morning, Jade didn't get out of bed. She had cried all night, judging herself for her actions the night before, thinking of herself as the most vile and petty person. How could she not have gone to Júlia’s aid? That thought made her feel even worse, and Benicio was worried.
“Princess, I know it's complicated, but you need to eat.”
“I'm not like that. I'm not a cruel person who denies help to someone in need,” she whispered.
“Jade, I know you're not. You were overwhelmed with the discovery and just didn't know how to react.” She nodded and clung to Benicio. One thing was clear in her mind: she couldn't keep hiding. The relationship between Júlia and her father was real, and she had to resolve things before any more damage was done. She was going to do it that very day.
