The physical pain in Gael's chest was one he was familiar with. He'd experienced it when his mother died and recently when Jino died. This time was similar, but at the same time, it was also different. Perhaps losing someone he didn't even know he'd lost or hadn't had the chance to get to know were the reasons. But he also believed it was because his unborn child didn't get to taste the world.
He felt extreme sadness and guilt that he wasn't there to protect Angela and their baby who were both suffering at the hands of a hateful scum of the earth.
Once again, Gael felt so helpless.
The significance of Angela's first book was something he couldn't have fathomed in the past. It turned out that he had known what had happened to her for a while now. He had known about it all along but just didn't realize how close to the truth it was.
