Chapter 721:

The scene before him brought back a memory—one he wished he could erase. At the audition site, he had rushed past Carrie with Lise in his arms, too preoccupied to even glance back at her. He had left her there, hurt and alone. This time, at least, he had noticed her pain. He thought that was an improvement.

Not getting a response from Carrie, Kristopher squatted down, preparing to lift her.

Carrie jerked away from him, her voice sharp. “What’s more important to you, Kristopher? Your sister’s heart or Lise?”

He didn’t blame her. He thought he understood—she was angry, and she needed time. In his mind, everything would be resolved eventually. All he needed was time to fix it. He would handle Lise. He would handle Omar. He would make it right.
