Chapter 760

Lincoln spoke earnestly. "Sky, I think seeing a therapist would be good for you. I'll accompany you. No one needs to know-neither Father nor Mother, Marcus or Nat. I'll make sure it stays between us."

Sky's eyes reddened, and after a long pause, he finally agreed. "Okay. Thank you, Lincoln."

Lincoln smiled. "Sky, we're family. I'm your brother. It's enough that you don't blame us for not helping you before. I'm sorry we couldn't do more back then."

Sky exhaled deeply. "I know, and I don't blame any of you. When I was in prison, I had a lot to think about. I don't have the right to blame anyone. If I should blame someone, it's myself.

"Lincoln, please go ahead and arrange the session. Once you have everything set, let me know the time. I'll see the therapist."

Lincoln nodded. "Alright. I'll make the arrangements soon."

He glanced at his watch. "Sky, take it easy tonight. I'll set it up tomorrow."

Sky nodded. "Okay, thank you."

Lincoln added, "Sky, don't mention it. This is what I should do as your brother. When we were kids, you took care of me so well. When I started my business, you helped me out a lot. My respect and gratitude for you have always been there."

Sky nodded once more. "Lincoln, thank you."

Lincoln smiled. "Sky, there's no need for that, really. Let's get some rest."

The two returned to the house, said goodnight to each other, and went to their separate rooms.

Lincoln sent a message to Naomi, made a quick phone call, then went to take a shower before bed.

Meanwhile, Sky sat on the balcony after finishing his evening routine. Since his return, he hadn't been able to sleep well. Some nights, he would finally manage to fall asleep, only to be tormented by nightmares.


In his dreams, Emma was covered in blood, crying out to him, "Sky, don't you want me anymore? Don't you want me? Sky, please save me. I love you...."

Each repeated "Sky" was like an incantation, haunting him, and every time he woke up, his body was drenched in sweat.

Sky sat on the balcony, intermittently checking his phone. It was a new phone, and everything inside was empty.

His old accounts had photos and videos, but he didn't want to restore them.

To him, Emma felt like a fleeting mist that disappeared as soon as it was swept away.
