章節 147: Sorry

April digested her father's words, he was remorseful and she knew that he was vulnerable and engulfed in grief when he had married Rachel. She understood that, but he had ignored all the hurtful words Rachel had said to her and he had known how she had been treated by her and Lucy. 

Could she forgive him fully? She could forgive but she could never forget. So she said, "I forgive you for the past. The past isn't who we are, each day we learn from our mistakes and we can only move forward and improve."

Martin beamed, he had got his daughter's forgiveness. That was all he had wanted, but he asked, "So can we move forward? Can you let me make amends for my actions?"

"You don't have to make amends. I don't harbour any ill feelings for you. We can start a fresh from today." April said. She held Dean's hand giving it a squeeze as she needed his support. This was a big step for her.
