The Hockey Star’s Remorse

Chapter 112

The headline hit me like a tidal wave. An image of Timothy and Stella emerged just beneath those bold words.

It looked like someone had taken an old image of Timothy and the old club leader at one of the past games. Timothy had a trophy tucked just under his arm with Stella clinging to the opposite side of his body. They’d gone as far as to crop out. part of the club leader’s face in order to zoom in on Timothy and Stella’s smiling faces.
