Laura's POV:

Sighing, Ethan said, "Sylvia is a good girl. It has not been an easy road for her and Rufus to get to this point. I didn't expect that fate would play such a cruel trick on them. It would appear that neither Leonard and Olivia nor Rufus and Sylvia can avoid their destinies."

"Then what should I do?" I was at a loss, not knowing what to do. I know that any decision I made would be detrimental to Rufus and Sylvia. But I also couldn't bear to see them suffer.

For a long moment, Ethan just stared at me blankly. Finally, he sighed and said, "Just do as Sylvia said. That's the best way for now. No matter what you do, at least one of them is destined to get hurt. In this case, we should choose the plan that would hurt them the least."

"But I'm afraid that Rufus will hate me if he finds out the truth. It won't be easy to make amends after this." I was worried. There were only two men I cared about in the whole world and they were Ethan and Rufus. I didn't want to risk losing everything.

Ethan coughed wearily. "Laura, you have to believe that Rufus loves you. No matter what happens, you are still his mother."
