Chapter 484
But even after Louisa said all that, Brian still wasn’t reassured.
He insisted on taking Hawk back.
Louisa didn’t argue.
For her, those years living with Hawk before she turned eighteen were the past she least wanted to revisit.
If her father could take him away and keep him out of her life, that was an ending she’d welcome.
However, Brian stayed in Silverlight City for two days, and Hawk never showed up.
She didn’t know if Hawk was aware her father was in town.
Brian couldn’t just keep waiting around–the farm back home needed tending. He had no choice but to head back first.
Louisa bought him a train ticket and drove him to the station.
Before leaving, Brian warned her over and over: if Hawk showed up, she shouldn’t be polite about it. Call him, or call the police.
Either way, as far as Brian was concerned, he’d never had a son like that.
Louisa was moved.
Brian brought up her relationship with Julian again, urging her to make a choice soon–either break up or get married. She couldn’t just drift along like this.
Louisa agreed.
After seeing her father off, she stood at the entrance of the train station, watching the crowds rush past in the plaza. For a moment, she
felt lost.
She suddenly remembered the last time she’d sent her father off, standing in this exact spot.
Julian had appeared in front of her, saying he’d come to take her home.
This time, he didn’t come.
Well, of course not. Her father had shown up out of nowhere and caught her and Julian together. She hadn’t acknowledged their relationship publicly and had even asked Julian to go along with the lie.
