At 8 pm that night, Erin left the Garden of Eden with a suitcase.

Paulo stood by the window; he stayed in his office without seeing her off. The reason was that there were three things he hated the most- weddings, funerals, and farewells.

Although he didn’t personally see Erin off the island, Paulo remained standing by the window, watching the helicopter depart from the small island until it disappeared completely into the darkness. He stood there motionless for a whole hour, and his expression was so calm that it was terrifying. Paulo had wanted very badly to go back with Erin, but he didn’t act upon it.
