When the message flashed across Finnian's screen, he sat frozen for a long time.
His fingers stiffened around his phone, realizing he had no right to ask any further questions.
He fell back onto the bed, throwing an arm over his exhausted eyes as a wave of regret washed over him.
Kaia was finally starting her new life, yet he felt trapped in the past.
Savoring the bitter taste of remorse.
Because of his emotional indulgence and lack of boundaries, he had deeply hurt the wife who loved him. Sometimes, he wanted to blame Kaia. She had married him because she loved him, so why hadn't she just told him? Why had she kept him in the dark, leading him to make all the wrong judgments about their relationship?
That night, Finnian tossed and turned, completely unable to sleep.
After finally managing to drift off for two hours, a dream jolted him awake.
He dreamed he was attending Kaia and Simon's wedding. She was wearing a pure white gown, holding a bouquet of flowers. Brynlee looked like a happy little fairy skipping in front of her, scattering petals from a basket. The mother and daughter were absolutely radiant, while he sat at a guest table with red, tear-filled eyes.
Jolted awake, Finnian found it impossible to go back to sleep.
The hospital room was deathly quiet, save for the faint, steady beeps of the heart monitor.
The city lights in the foreign country flickered in the distance.
Elaine had hired several nurses from back home to take careful care of her.
She had passed the critical stage and was now in a regular room. She was pale, but her spirits were much better.
She looked at her son sitting on the sofa. He had been in that position for a long time, staring down at his dark phone screen as if desperately waiting for a message or a call.
"Finnian!" Elaine called out.
