Capítulo 45: Chapter 45: I am a Child

What was there to regret?

Regret not insisting on searching for the body or regret holding that yacht party, or perhaps… regret getting involved with his wife's assistant?

Jade's smile on her face became strained.

She had worked so hard to get where she was today, not to hear this man confess his "regrets."

She gently hugged Nathaniel, her voice tender like water: "Nathaniel, I know you can't let go of Sister Suzanne. It's okay… I'll wait for you. No matter how long it takes, I don't mind…"

A woman's consolation is the best medicine for a man in his most vulnerable moments.

Nathaniel thought of Jade's deep love and lack of regrets, her sacrifices and patience. He was moved, and wrapped his arms around her waist, his voice hoarse: "Jade, thank you for always being by my side…"

Jade didn't say anything, but lifted her graceful neck, sealing the man's remaining words with her soft, red lips.
