In fact, if he was being honest with himself, he didn’t even remember who she was. But he couldn’t deny the strange feeling that had settled inside him–one he didn’t want to acknowledge.

“No, you are wrong. She left because she thought I was cheating on her… with Valerie. And all of that happened when she found out she was pregnant with my daughters,” Peter confessed, ashamed.

“And did you? Did you cheat on her?” Aria asked, a little worried.
