Chapter 315

MARCUS

The moment between Olivia and Luke touched me. I thought I was caring for my wife well enough. I thought I knew what she needed, but seeing her with Luke like that made me realize that I had missed some things. Like the relationship she should have had with her father.

Luke was the only family she had left besides the one she chose for herself: Lupita and her grandmother. As her husband, I should have helped her nurture that relationship, but I missed the signs. Yes, Luke was in our lives, but not in the way he was supposed to be. Not as Olivia’s father.

it.

Nick couldn’t hide his feelings for my wife as much as he thought he did. I could see right through him.
