Shadows Of A Forgotten Spring

Chapter 153

Inside the jet, the atmosphere was suffocating. The three of them sat in silence, each lost in their own whirlwind of

émotions.

Emma stared out the window, her hands trembling slightly in her lap. She tried to focus on the clouds forming in the distance, but her mind kept replaying the look on Jaden's face as he walked away. She wanted to scream, to cry, to undo the damage Alexander had done with just a few words. Even though Alexander was the real father of her twins, he had no reason to do what he had done because he wouldn't be more than that her life. He had thrown away his chance, and even all he had done and sacrificed for her, she couldn't dream of both of them being together again, and then her gaze fell on Annie, who was seated next to Alexander like two beans in a pod..

Annie sat stiffly a few seats away, her perfectly composed facade beginning to crack. Her jaw was clenched, her knuckles white as she gripped the armrests. Every glance Alexander stole in Emma's direction felt like a dagger to her heart.

Finally, after what felt like forever, they landed at the airport, and Emma tried to grab her bags, but Annie stopped her by gripping her wrist.
