Chapter 442 Why Does It Feel So Far When We're So Close

Aurora had no clue why Cormac was so worked up, but she figured he had his reasons, so she racked her brain to remember.

"That day, my dad said a lot," Aurora began. "He told me he loved me a ton and wanted me to take care of myself. He also mentioned that there are still good people in the world." "He said if he died, someone would surely look out for me. Then he mumbled something I couldn't catch. He seemed really sad."

"So I got really sad too. I cried for ages, and after I cried myself to sleep, he left and never came back," Aurora continued.

Could he have had an accident? Or suddenly felt unwell? Had a relapse? Thinking about it made Stellan's heart race. The more she thought,
