After Death, Love Unveiled

"This is just your excuse," Lysander said coldly to Sully. "You know exactly what you did to my mother."

Sully's face flushed with indignation. "What did I do to her? I loved Yessenia more than anything. She's gone, and I still can't get over it. You all are living your lives, and I'm the only one who still remembers her. She was your mother, but you've already forgotten her." Lysander's expression remained icy. "You cheated on her. And right after she gave birth, you told her about it. It was your who caused her death."

"I told her because I knew she wasn't happy with Wyatt," Sully retorted. "She didn't like Wyatt at all. It was Wyatt who forced her to stay with him. I only wanted to save her."

"But you killed her." Lysander shot back. "She was happy with her life at the time. If you had just waited... if you'd told her later, she might not have been so paranoid and desperate to divorce him."

In the journal Elara had given him, his mother had written about everything. At least before Sully appeared, she had been happy. Sully had ruined everything.

Sully's eyes narrowed. "What proof do you have?"

"She left a journal," Lysander replied. "It's all written there. You were the one who caused her death."

"That's impossible." Sully's face darkened at the mention of the journal.

At that moment, a person rushed out of Adam's hospital room. "Doctor!"

Adam was gravely ill. The doctors quickly arrived, and Sully, who had a broken leg, sat quietly nearby. The room was eerily still.

The doctor came out to deliver the news that Adam had passed away. Sully remained silent. He probably knew what that meant. Without Adam as his protection, with Lysander now determined to seek justice, Sully had lost all his support. After Adam's funeral, Sully was taken into custody. Lysander had made a backup of his mother's journal and showed it to Sully.

Reading the journal, Sully saw how Yessenia had been content with her life in the Hawthorne family, and how his arrival had destroyed everything. Sully still couldn't bring himself to believe it, but now, with no other options, he had to accept it.
