"Give her back? Ha, you must be joking."

Avery's voice was dripping with disdain, cold as the wind on a bleak winter night. "Thaddeus, Evadne was meant to be with me from the start. You took her away, flaunting your undeserved victory. You had her, but you never cherished her. You let her suffer, let her endure the kind of pain that no one should bear. You cost her the chance of motherhood forever."

Thaddeus felt like he was choking, his breaths heavy and laborious, his heart clenching painfully.

Avery's words pierced through him like bullets, carving an unhealable wound in his chest, bleeding ceaselessly, cruelly.

He knew Avery was toying with his mind, trying to shatter his defenses and leave him vulnerable.

Thaddeus tried to compose himself, but the truth in Avery's words was undeniable.

He stood there, body trembling with pain, heart sinking deeper and deeper into an abyss of regret.

"You nearly destroyed the one I love most, Evadne. She almost wilted because of you. Thaddeus, you're not worthy of being by her side. Your love, realized far too late, is utterly worthless.

If she hadn't been misled, deceived, and delayed by you, we'd be together by now, husband and wife.

I'd cherish her, love her, adore her. I'd sacrifice everything just to be with her for a moment. She's been the only one for me, Thaddeus. Could you ever say the same? You hesitate, you waver, you're so afraid. You can't even understand your own heart, it's filthy to the point I can't stand it. What makes you think you deserve to walk through life with Evadne?"
