Althea could feel all her memories of Caleb rushing back into her brain like an unstoppable tide.
The image of him cheating on her with another woman had haunted once again and she didn't want to feel the pain she felt when she had caught him in that moment.
She couldn't bear to see the face she had once admired, the lips she had kissed goodnight, and the person she had loved so deeply. It all felt like a distant, painful memory, yet now, it felt as though it had returned to haunt her.
As Althea turned away, her eyes glistening with unshed tears, Caleb instinctively reached out to grab her hand, desperate to explain or make amends. However, Ladia, who had been observing the situation from a short distance, intervened. She gently placed her hand on Caleb's arm, preventing him from pursuing Althea any further.
