Trenton Smith's feelings toward him were not hatred, but an extreme aversion bordering on loathing.
Luke Moore felt guilt toward him and had almost no confidence in his presence.
Upon hearing Trenton Smith mention these things, he felt uneasy, frowning and pursing his lips, unable to utter a single word.
"She is your sister..." After a long while, he finally spoke softly, "Trenton Smith, I am sorry about your mother, but Norris is innocent. She has nothing to do with you. Why can't you let her go? You shouldn't ruin her life just because she loves you. If you really want revenge, come at me, don't hurt Norris anymore..."
Trenton Smith stared at him meaninglessly and then slowly inhaled a drag of his cigarette, laughing softly.
That laugh was void of any warmth.
