Bab 649: Chapter 152 : More Than I Could Have Imagined

*Oliver*

Mirage, Five Years After Lena’s Wedding

Sunlight poured through the kitchen windows. All of Elaine’s flowers were in bloom. Early spring roses trembled against the glass in the soft breeze. From the windows, I could see Old Town rising out of the blinding sunlight reflecting in a shimmer against the moisture from last night's thunderstorm. The kids had slept terribly, which meant I had also slept like absolute shit.

Thankfully, Elaine was due home in a few hours. She’d spent the weekend away, enjoying some time with her twin sister at some spa near the port of Valoria while Abigail was visiting from Egoren. I’d been the one pushing for my wife to spend some time away, to take a break from the kids. I told her I could handle it, that everything would be fine.
