Mystery of Raven's Love Breaker
Claire's in jail
Chapters 20.
“There is a guest for you, Miss Claire,” the exclamation from the warden awakened Claire from her long daydream.
Claire got up from her seat on the floor behind the bars.
The prison warden opened the bars, and Claire walked out.
He walked on until his steps came to the front, where the prisoners usually talked to the visitors.
Claire sees Raven and Caroline coming to see her. They are waiting for his arrival.
Claire sat down on one of the seats lined up and picked up the phone to talk to Raven.
He could not come into contact with either Raven or Caroline, as their opposite positions were separated by a high barrier. And the phone is a tool to connect them.
“You okay?” ask Raven through the device.
“Iya,” Claire replied back.
“I told Caroline everything,” Raven spoke again.
Claire glanced for a moment at Caroline who was sitting next to Raven.
Raven continued, “With a heart, Caroline told me to visit you. He holds no grudge against you, even because of your plan, almost his life was lost. That's not all, Claire. Just so you know, at the suggestion of Caroline also, I will find a lawyer who is the most reliable in order to defend you later in court.”
“No need, Raven,” Claire shook her head. “I don't want to be defended. Just let the prosecutor prosecute me and I'm ready to accept the sentence, whatever the length of time. Even if it was a death sentence, I was ready as well. Because I deserve it.”
“Claire...,” Raven mentioned the girl's name. In a moment, a feeling of pity arose in her heart, replacing the resentment that had arisen since she knew Claire had done so, as well as the abomination committed by her father Claire, which caused both of Raven's parents to die.
“I'm fine, Raven,” Claire said. “Now, all the business of the company I leave to you. In your hands, the company will run well and smoothly. Ohya, can I talk to Caroline for a minute?” claire asked while looking at Caroline who had just been silent watching them.
Raven handed the device to Caroline.
“Caroline, forgive me for what I did, huh? Because of me, you almost killed Kyle. May you forgive me,” Claire's heartfelt request.
“I've forgiven you since the other day, Miss,” Caroline is breastfed.
“Then, thank you, huh? You have to work back at the company. Help Raven to take care of and advance the company. Never give up. I trust my papa company in the hands of both of you.”
“Will I do it,” answered Caroline.
“Teetttt..!” The bell in the room rang, a sign that the visitation time was up.
Claire put down her phone and stood up. For a moment, he looked at Raven and Caroline. Then the next moment he lowered his head, and walked away. Leaving behind Raven and Caroline who were still looking at him with pity.

Raven placed the wreath over her parents' graves side by side. He prayed a prayer for a moment.
After being ready to pray, he said his own words, like he was talking to his parents who had rested quietly.
Shortly afterwards, he walked a few feet away from it, stopping by the other tomb. This is Claire's father's grave. Raven placed the remaining wreath in her hand over the tomb.
“I'm sorry, Uncle,” Raven said her own words in front of that tomb. He used to call his father Claire Uncle. “I'm sorry because I can't take good care of Claire. Even because of me, he has harmed many people. Ii'm sorry. I have also forgiven your actions towards my mom and dad.”
He took a deep breath. Now, his heart was relieved. The blood flow in his body was flowing smoothly. His heart was pumping quickly, feeling excited. His mind was calm again.
Raven turned her body, walking away from the place. His eyes were staring straight ahead, into many things that still had to be resolved. He continued walking and walking, ignoring all obstacles that would stand in his way. Because in his heart, he wanted to meet the tomorrow he believed in, it would definitely be brighter.
