Eventually, Rose could not keep her eyes open and fell asleep.

Jay heard her steady breathing and opened his eyes.

He turned his body to his side and looked at her sleeping face. Her appearance was starkly different, but the resemblance to Angeline was undeniable.

He had never looked at her straight in the face, perhaps because her appearance was not the same, much less tried to understand her since seven years ago, when she had given up her all to marry him. They could have spent their time happily together, but he had squandered it all.

He had hurt her deeply, and she had learned how to hide her scars.

Jay lifted her hand and gently touched Rose's cheek.

The woman he hurt the most was the woman he loved the most.

He hugged her close to his body, allowing his solitude over the years to be washed away by the bliss of her presence.

With her and the children, what more could he ask for?

If he had a regret, that would be the daughter that she bore while married to another man.

Jay felt his heart ache whenever he was reminded of that unknown man.
