Chapter 3210

At dinner, Jessie’s demeanor shifted between moods, at times acting petulantly while Shawn’s wife attentively served her.

Jessie eventually found herself feeling out of place amidst the cozy dynamics of Marcus and Melissa, along with Shawn and Janet.

She was struck by a pang of loneliness, pondering on a life that could have been with someone who loved and cherished her, imagining children of their own.

As Janet offered her more food, Jessie snapped out of her reverie, managing a smile despite the tears brimming in her eyes.

Retreating to her room post-dinner, Jessie lay on her bed, engulfed in silence, haunted by memories of Albert.

The reminder starkly highlighted the distance that now lay between them.

Albert had moved on, leaving Jessie clinging to the remnants of what used to be her whole world.

In her heart, Jessie knew she had been the one unable to let go, even as Albert had clearly moved forward, likely now sharing his life with someone new.

This realization deepened Jessie’s self-reproach.
