Devon was able to witness how the young man turns into a crown prince.

The time he married the princess he pretends to be a loving husband toward the so-called- princess due to the threat of his so-called mother. It was a painful day the day he married and saw his beloved to walk at the side door of the manor and enter as a concubine. He has been dreaming she will be the mistress of the manor but alas it didn't.

One thing that the young woman didn't know is he did everything to make the young woman cancel the engagement. He wanted that she will have a good life, away from all the schemes. If she found a man who will love her. He is already satisfied as long she is safe and happy.

The moment he was threatened by his so-called mother that she will harm her. He did everything to make her cancel the engagement.

Unfortunately, she stayed. His heart has been torn into pieces every time he saw her in the distance looking far away.

There was a time he wanted to run away with her but that was the time she got poison by the empress. He wanted to go to her courtyard, but the princess put a spy on her. He is walking in a piece of thin ice that one single move everything will crumble. It might even cost her life. So he is very thorough in making plans.

One time he found out from his subordinate that the empress was trying to frame the General household. He found a way to prove their innocence without telling the General that he is the one who bought the evidence that they are innocent.

He didn't talk to her about the whole situation they are in because he doesn't want her to be involved. One wrong move and the whole clan of the general can be killed.

In a power struggle among the nobles. Some nobles pretend to be nice and good, but it doesn't mean they are friends.

One day the emperor's health is degrading. It was a time for all the children of the emperor to go out and pray for the king.

The day that he was waiting has arrived. It is time to reveal everything to her. He has accumulated enough power that no matter how his so-called mother tries to harm his beloved. She cannot harm her.

It took him how many years. For the first time, he was anticipating to talk to her.

The crown prince ordered all his household to hold a vigil in the mountain. For the first time, he seated with her in the carriage. He was always glancing at her while she was surprised that he seats next to her. It was also the first time she saw him up closed, smiling at her.

While on the other carriage the princess was angry.

Devon can see his blushing, sweating and was nervous all the way going to the mountain. Arriving in the middle of the mountain bandits surrounds them.

Devon saw how the young woman fought and the last minute was stab by the so-called princess.

When the crown prince saw what happened. He becomes still and pale. It was a gloomy sight to see.

Devon saw how he was devastated. During the painful day that he was not allowed to see her. He saw blood trickled in his eyes.

It describes how the pain in his heart, his hand was bleeding due to he was firmly gripping his hand. His injury was oozing with the blood but he keeps kneeling under the rain. All his works and effort were gone because she is gone.

When the general allowed him inside. He slowly walked toward her body. She looked like she is sleeping. His heartfelt like has been stabbed how many times. He couldn't believe that the woman that he wanted to protect for so long is gone.

After she died. He orders his men to look for the old woman to perform the rituals for them to be together. At the same time, he went toward his palace and executes his long-time plan. He didn't care anymore if he dies or not. He went to war and was victorious to conquer the southern kingdom.

During the war, the emperor. The empress made sure that the crown prince will be declared dead and cannot come back to take the throne. Her plan was seen by him. He was declared dead but during the day that the empress was supposed to take charge of the country. He came with his soldiers. The palace becomes a blood bath of battle. Nevertheless, he won.

When he becomes an emperor. He immediately vanished his mother without care. Not only vanished but it was a place where you better die than living. He punished severely the so-called wife of his and all the people who abused him. He literally cleans the whole palace. Not a single concubine, prince or princess stayed on that palace. His so-called brother and sisters were sent out of the country, and they will fend for themselves. He didn't care. All the pain, all the sacrifice he did was all gone because of one mistake.

The person he wanted to protect is already gone. He was supposed to tell her everything. His feelings, his longing, his love toward her once they arrived at the temple but who knew he miscalculated everything.

Every night he keeps on calling the name of the woman he loved.

After all the things that were shown to Devon. A man's voice speaks out.

"Xue Li"

Devon suddenly stirs up from his sleep and look where he is. His theory was right. The moment he kidnapped Sheri. He starts to dream more.

What does that voice mean?

"Xue li"

It is almost 4 days has gone by and Sheri is getting crazy she is stuck in that room and wasn't allowed to come out. She wanted to talk to Devon, but he never came. To make her time go by, she workouts.

Nevertheless, Devon provided everything she ever asked. Clothes, books, everything. One thing she was not allowed to have, is a cellphone or any gadget.

She is almost at the edge of going exasperated She wanted to see if she can break the window but it was so hard that no matter what she does. It never breaks. She even tried throwing the chair, but the chair was broken instead.

While looking at the window, the door opened with a loud bang. Sheri saw Devon breathing so hard and immediately runs toward her and embraced her.

Sheri was flabbergasted. She was supposed to push him but suddenly he captured her lips and kisses her so deeply.

Sheri was again shocked.

Devon breaks their kiss and looks into her eyes.

"At long last, I have found you. My Xue Li"

Sheri was shocked.

"Xue li, that name was very familiar. Where did I hear that?" Sheri thought to her self.

"Ah wait.. Mr. Devon. Can you please let go of me." Sheri was panicking of what is Devon doing.

"I have waited for this moment for so long. I have missed you." Devon was crying. Stream of tears in his eyes while Sheri was dumbstruck of what is happening.

"Huh" Sheri cannot wrap in her head what is going on.

Sheri did her best to push him, but he won't budge.

Sheri stops struggling. She can feel the tears in his eyes on her shoulder while embracing her.

"Release me now," Sheri commanded. She was flabbergasted about what is going on. Devon released her and was like a mad man keeps on apologizing.

"I am sorry, I am sorry I don't know what comes over me why I did those. I thought she was you. But I was mistaken. Please forgive me."

Sheri was completely confused.

"What on earth are you talking about?" Sheri commanded.

"If I knew that she was fake I would not have done what I did to you. I have waited for so long for this. Please forgive me. I would do everything you wanted. Anything." Devon clasps her two hands.

Devon kneeled in front of Sheri and Sheri was utterly speechless.

"Can you get up and explain to me what is going on." Still, Devon didn't get up and keep kneeling in front of her.

"If I have known.... I would not commit the mistake over and over..... If I have, just figure out I would not have done what I've done..... I know it was too late and perhaps you don't know but I know it too well what I have done. I was stupid." Devon started hitting his head.

Sheri was shocked and immediately hold his hand.

Sheri kneels and looked at him.

He was in a wreck, crying. Sheri felt pity for him because she doesn't know what got into him. Even her, she couldn't understand why she felt pain in her heart looking at him in that situation. Why her heart starts to beat fast and why a tear wants to fall on her eyes. Sheri was so perplexed.

She was holding his hand to stop him from hitting himself, and she can see his pain. She waited for him to compose himself and start to talk.

"I have no idea what you are talking about can you explain." Sheri gently said. Her heart starts to throb when she sees the grief in those eyes.

Devon looks at her brownish eye and slowly reaches out her face.

He gently holds it.

"I have loved you a long, long time ago. I was dumb not to confront you about my feeling. Every time I see you. I can't contain myself to hold you. As much as I wanted to be with you since we were young I cannot because of mother. I have thought that If I would marry that woman you would stop the engagement. I was wrong and it was too late." Devon slowly put his hand and hold gently the necklace of Sheri.

"I have let someone make this for me to be able to recognize you in the future. It has a specific glow that only the real Xue Li can. I have traveled far and tried to gain my memory back and now I found them but once again I hurt you anew."

She was silent the whole time.

Devon grabs at his back a gun and put it at the hand of Sheri.

"Two lifetimes I hurt you. This lifetime I am giving you the opportunity to stop me. If you don't do it. I will make sure that this lifetime I will follow you, be a slave to you, and do whatever you want me to do as long you don't ask me to be far away from you. If you don't want me better end it all cause I can't live without you. I am willing and happy to die in your hand if that will makes you happy and satisfied. "Devon gently said toward her while placing the gun in her hand.

Sheri was shocked by all the revelation that was happening. Sheri looked at the gun. She put it on the floor and carefully removed her necklace.

She looked at it. While looking at it. Indeed, it has a glow on it, but Sheri thought it was normal it glows. Sheri's face can't be described. Devon grasps her hand and together they touch the necklace. Sheri was flabbergasted of what he is doing while looking at the glow of the gem of the necklace.

Images were suddenly flashed in her mind. Everything has happened so fast that she suddenly drop the necklace.
