"Yes, I've always turned down the idea of marriage because my heart belongs to someone else. But now I see she's happy, I think it's time for me to move on," Finnegan shared his feelings.
Richard picked up on who he was talking about. "You mean Esther?"
"Since you've figured it out, I'm relieved you won't make fun of me. I've been secretly admiring her for ten years."
Finnegan said those words calmly, but could anyone really understand the rollercoaster of emotions he experienced over those ten years, quietly admiring her from a distance?
And now, seeing her with someone else, how could he not feel heartbroken?
Richard stayed silent for a while, then chose to keep quiet because he knew he couldn't suggest his friend try to take someone else's fiancee. Esther was with James now, and nothing could change that, not even Mobius. So, what could Finnegan do?
Finnegan smiled a little and shook his head. "I'm ready to accept this."
After ten years of silently caring for her, his heart had no room for anyone else. In that case, he thought it might be best to let his parents choose someone for him, someone who could also help with his career. That seemed like the best solution for now.
Richard decided not to say anything, understanding Finnegan had his own way of dealing with things.
The room became quiet.
