"I'm also very conflicted. This reality is even worse than Skye herself imagined," Coulson said.
"Yes. Such a tragic childhood left her resentful toward the parents who abandoned her. She originally thought the female agent who left her behind was her mother, which was why she wanted to find information about her."
"But she never expected that the person she had resented had actually died protecting her."
"She had also believed that the parents and relatives who had deliberately abandoned her had died protecting her."
"So many people had sacrificed themselves to protect her. Those whom she may have buried deep in her heart and resented for more than a decade had actually been the people who loved her most, and they had all died for her."
"For a girl who once held hope and longed for a perfect family, that feeling is simply too cruel."
Looking at Coulson, who had lowered his head slightly, Leo could not help sighing with emotion.
How could that once cheerful, strong, and hopeful girl withstand such a blow?
At the same time, Leo was somewhat shocked. Even under such circumstances, Skye had continued carrying out her missions with the team, suffering only from intense emotional fluctuations.
No wonder Leo had sensed such emotional fluctuations through the Golden Light in New York. He had initially thought she was injured or facing some kind of crisis, but he had never expected that it was because Skye had learned the truth.
"No. This is precisely what makes Skye remarkable. What I told her overturned everything. Her lifelong search had led her to a string of murders, and now she couldn't investigate any further."
"Her search ends here, and so does her story. But do you know what she said?"
Coulson raised his head and spoke softly
