"Celeste， I am sorry." He kneels in front of me ."I believe that I am still in love with you."
I know who he is . He was my boyfriend before but he broke up with me because he falls in love with someone else . She is also my best friend from erudite : Abby.
"Max， I am not stupid." I spit at him."You know Abby was in love with Amar and you killed Amar and pretended that it wasn't you."
"Celeste， why don't you trust me ." Max grabs my hand
"Why should she trusts you." Someone comes in
He laces his hand with me . He has lighter skin and has no hair . He has brown eyebrows and eyes . His beard around his chin are all brown . There are black stripped tattoos on his neck and back of his hand .
He is the new mafia boss of dauntless: Alan Davis . He kisses my cheek.
"Celeste， why are you here alone . I told you that he is a dangerous man." Alan says
"I trust that you will protect me ." I rest my head on his shoulder."Because you love me ."
"Of course I love you but I am worried sometime I will not be here on time ." Alan kisses my hand ."Just like last time you and tris went to erudite alone."
"Alan， I and tris wanted to protect you and four . We don't want you guys to get hurt." I look sad
"I know but we will not live without you and tris ." Alan holds me tight ."You heard me confessed in Candor right?"
I recall the memory from that day he said that he wanted to leave but I showed up. My tears come down.
"I was so stupid . I thought the reason why you push me to Candor is that you don't love me anymore ." I bite my lips ."I never think that is because you love me ."
"Celeste， you are my world . I will never give up on loving you." Alan grabs my hand ."Max your execution will be this afternoon if the trial deemed you guilty."
He grabs my hand and walks away. I know that Caleb is here in the prison. I don't know what should I say
"Anything wrong Celeste ?" Alan stops in front of me
"It is about Caleb . I don't know what right do I have to trial him without my parent being here." I shake my head ."There is something that I want to tell you. You may not believe me and you can put me under truth serum."
I blink my watery eyes at him and he giggles .
"I believe you Celeste . Come to my office now and you can tell me ." Alan brushes my hair
"I want four and tris and Maria all be here， Including Caleb and Sam." I shrug."Caleb……."
"I will ask four to do this ." Alan sighs ."It is about him right"
I don't say a word . I follow him into his office and sits down . He types something on the computer .
"Four is maybe in the control room so I am sending him a code ." Alan says
I rest my head on his recline chair which he used to take a nap every single day afternoon.
"Are you feeling okay?" Alan asks me ."You seem tired."
"A little but this thing is far more important than this ." I shake my head .
Four and tris come in . Maria and Sam follow them and Sam is escorting Caleb . He sits down on the couch.
"So everyone is here . What are you going to tell me ." Tris folds her arms
"Tris， you know that mom told me to leave abnegation to come to dauntless for a reason right? Now I know why." I nod at her
"What is that reason?" Tris smirks
I don't know why is she acting so weird . Four grabs her arm
"I wasn't from Chicago." I sigh."I born in a city called Detroit. Clearly， theses two cities are the experiment for the outside people ."
"How do you know ?" Maria narrows her eyes
"The woman in the video is our grandma . I was born in dauntless in Detroit， when I was 13， I became their instructor and ambassador ." I choke on the word ."Before I came into Chicago， they erase my memories so that I didn't have any memories before 16."
Tris opens her eyes wide . I know that mom told them a lie .
"Mom told you that I got fever so I forgot everything. That was a lie . Mom knows why I am here . The founder of the city told me that I will have to stop what Jeanine is doing and I have to choose dauntless . Our mom sent here for a purpose too." I lower my head ."They used one of my favorite initiate's Life to threat me . I lost my instructor but I can't lose him again."
"Him?" Alan raises his eyebrow
"His name is Jason walker ." I response ."He was also from abnegation like four and his father is one of the most influential leader of the government."
Sam nudges Maria . Maria stares at me like she doesn't know me .
"Are you fine babe ?" Sam is worried
"So you lived there until when you were 16 and comes in." Maria says
"Yes ." I nod at her
Alan pinches his lips together . He is thinking about something
"Yesterday we received some strange code from an unknown location. I think that is a message for you ." Alan stands up."Want to go and see it."
Alan gives me his hand and I take it. I do need support. People follow us out of the office
"I am sorry Alan. My memories have been coming back since everything was finished . I should tell you but I don't know how ." I say
"It's fine babe . I trust you." Alan smiles at me ."I love you so I trust you."
We get into the control room. Alan sits in front of the computer and types something on the pad . A series of code appears on the screen and I narrow my eyes
"It is telling us that we should leave the city and seek refugee in Detroit. They will provide us with necessary protection." I nod at alan."I think that is the best option we have ."
"That make us look coward ." Sam hissed
"Sam， how many people do we have to fight back evelyn? We don't have enough people Sam." Alan frowns
No one are speaking now . Elizabeth and Elisa come in after a minute . Christina and Cara with all of our people and friends come in as well.
"Where is Abby." I ask
"I don't know ." Cara shrugs
"I have something to show her if we plan to leave ." I say
I want to tell her the truth about Amar . Amar isn't dead for real. I sit beside Alan and types something. I want to tell Alexander that we will be going.
"We have to pass Evelyn but then we will have to fight." Alan bites his lips
"So that's why we need our people . There are some of my people in factionless as spy. They will help us and they will go back to Detroit with us ." I smile
"If they are your people ， how can Evelyn doesn't figure that out." Elizabeth raises her eyebrows at me
I know that they are all shocked with the information now .
"They have the memory serum."
Sasha comes back from the Candor when the trial begins . Sasha is now with Jack kang.
"So the trial is beginning? Jack wants me to do it." Sasha sighs ."Charlie is with him."
"Charlie likes him or not?" I wrap my arm around her
"Yeah he is a good father . I feel guilty because I am his first girlfriend." Sasha shakes her head
Alan stands in front of max . Sasha takes out the truth serum
"Jack had a crush on you before you transferred ." Alan rolls his eyes
"Hey Alan ， you promise me don't get angry with Sasha ." I say seriously."Can we go on with the trial."
Sasha opens the box . I know that she can't do it.
"I will do it." I stretch out my hand
She gives me the serum and I grab it. I walk toward max and sam has his gun on him
"Don't need to be this nervous sam." max smirks ."I am not going to kill my ex girlfriend."
I insert the needle into his neck. He sighs .
"May the truth set you free." Sasha says calmly.
I walk back to Alan and he holds me into his arms
"Let us with some fact to test how the serum kicks in." Sasha smirks ."What's your name ."
"My name is max." Max says
"What is your faction of origin and your choice ." Sasha lifts her chin
She doesn't look like someone who is panicking.
"Dauntless and dauntless"max inhales deeply.
"So why you broke up with Celeste ." Sasha folds her arms
"I never intend to broke up with her but I didn't see my heart clearly. I assume that I fall in love with Abby." Max shakes his head
Alan holds me tighter . He is always afraid that he will lose me if he doesn't hold tight enough.
"So when did you start working with Jeanine Matthew ?" Sasha asks
"Three years ago." Max blinks his eyes
"Did you ever know Celeste is divergent?" Sasha spits out the word
I know that she isn't happy. Max loves me more than her
"I know that is why I deleted all her footage and record ."'max is crying.
"I was the one who deleted it." Alan says
"I have the copy of it. Ultimately , I have to be the one who delete everything." Max shrugs
Max was protecting me . How about Eric ?
"So do you ever regret on working with erudite ." Sasha says
"No , never ."
