Chapter 623 He was almost whispering, “I miss her, and I miss our baby.”
Sage looked at the mist that clouded her brother’s eyes and then subsided, as though they never appeared. Her heart twitched upon the sight. Her beloved sister-in-law, Tim’s dear wife, passed away five years ago. She had a baby of five months in her womb when she did. Sofia was her brother’s only love in this life.
She died to save her brother, however, a part of Tim seemed to die too after she passed away.
The Shelby’s had an old myth, passed down from a century ago, “Mister Shelby’s wife, will be sacrificing her life for the family.”
There was not one Mrs Shelby in history who seemed to dodge the curse.
After Sofia passed away, Tim was living like a walking corpse for a long time. His mother came to see him in Yathein, and she remembered Tim saying to her, “There were numerous times I felt myself nearing death, however this time, I felt it the closest.” Maybe, his soul died.
The one living right now, was not Tim anymore, but Duke Shelby, Mister Shelby.
“Tim,” Sage touched the corner of his eyes, and said, “You have aged so much, you have wrinkles now.”
Tim slapped her hand away, and said, “Go away. You have wrinkles.”

Kane has finally found the girl who kicked his ass when he was a kid. Seth is in a relationship with the prettiest girl ever in Salem, while Nigel and Sean are in a stable relationship and we could expect to attend their wedding soon, and Luther is still the same…”
Sage went on and on. She felt like spilling all about her brothers’ stupid stories for Tim.
Tim watched quietly as she blabbered. He was smiling slightly, and occasionally responded a sentence or two, most of which involved unexpectedly roasting her with no mercy.
It had been a long time since Meadow Castle was so noisy.
This little girl that grew up in his lap was finally an adult now, and started talking about love and relationship
What never changed was the fact that she was the sunshine to all her brothers. On the other hand, Jace heard from Laura and Yoel that Sage had been safely picked up by her brother Tim, and was finally relieved. Jace did not sleep the whole day and night yesterday. He rubbed his forehead, and laid on the sofa, exhausted, His lips were loosened in delight.
Thank God that she was safe,
Someone knocked on his door, Zayne came in and passed a stack of papers to Jace,
