Laura's POV:

I turned my head in surprise. Ethan was awake.

I felt flustered. "When did you wake up? Did you hear what the doctor said just now?"

Ethan gave me an unguarded smile. "Yes, I heard him, and honestly speaking, I'm not surprised. This day was bound to come sooner or later."

With a sigh, he continued, "From the moment I heard the news of Leonard's death, I felt like the end of our era had arrived. I've been a strong man all my life. I've fought numerous battles. I've devoted my entire life to the people of the empire and never lived a single day for myself. I'm tired and it's time for me to step aside. The only person I feel bad for right now is you, Laura. I know it's too late to make up for my past neglect, but I do want to spend my remaining time with you."
