"I'm not considering a relationship right now." She said softly.

Brett sighed, "Still can't get over Harvey, can you?"

Eloise simply shook her head. After a while, she looked out at the night sky, murmuring, "I don't know if coming back was the right decision. Three years have passed, and whatever deep-rooted past Harvey and I had, it should be forgotten by now."

But Harvey wouldn't let go. His possessiveness towards her was clear. Eloise had a feeling, if she dared to marry another man, Harvey would make a scene.

She decided to take Michelle abroad once she recovered. She wanted to get away from Harvey.

Brett watched her expressions, guessing her thoughts. He felt both amused and annoyed. Harvey was indeed a pain in the neck, especially over the past few years. Despite divorcing Eloise, he still visited the Noland family in Brockville every year for Thanksgiving. This year, he even brought along his child, much to the shock of Grandma Noland.

Grandma Noland cried all night, with that jerk by her side the whole time.

So now, Brett just turned a blind eye. After all, Harvey had managed to keep Linda alive, raising her single-handedly till she turned three. For that alone, Brett felt Harvey deserved some credit.

Casually, Brett probed, "What would have happened if Linda was still here, Eloise?"

Eloise was taken aback. Over the years, she never dared to think about the "what ifs". Without answering, she simply gazed out of the car window. Her mind was filled with images of a rose garden and a tombstone bearing her and Harvey's
