In the stark interrogation chamber, Caesar encountered Lola for the very first time. She was there, unjustly accused of betraying her homeland, her appearance desolate – clad in a thin, sodden garment and bound to the floor by heavy chains.
As a commanding figure dressed in his imposing black military uniform, Caesar presided over her trial, embodying the role of a stern judge. Many years later, when the extravagant details of their wedding surfaced, people believed it marked the beginning of their romantic tale.
The popular narrative had it that Caesar, once a formidable general, felt an overwhelming wave of compassion when he saw Lola, trembling with pain and hopelessness. They said he gently removed his black gloves to offer her comfort with tenderness and love.
However, the truth was quite different. Throughout the trial, Caesar maintained his formal demeanor, keeping his gloves on as he observed Lola from behind the iron railing, his expression cold and unyielding.
It wasn't until yesterday that Caesar finally embraced Lola in his arms, breaking the silence that had surrounded them for so long.
