Elaine was shipped back to the same backwater village where Raina had spent her childhood.
Meanwhile, Lucian stuck to me like glue, day after day, waiting for some shred of forgiveness.
True to form, he showed up at the Simpson estate after work—only this time, he came armed with paperwork.
"I know you hate me," he said, voice tight, "but Raina and I were in love. We were engaged."
I dropped my gaze, willing my trembling hands to still.
His eyes burned with sincerity. "I swear I'll give her the life she deserves. I'll spend the rest of mine making up for everything." He tapped the document. "This proves it. Sign this, and everything I have becomes hers."
He slid the pen toward me. I hesitated—just for show—before scrawling my name.
Lucian signed beside it and handed me the papers. The second I took them, hope flickered in his eyes. "Now… can I see her?"
My answer shattered him. "You'll never see her again."
His brow furrowed. "What?"
"Not in this lifetime."
A strained laugh escaped him. "Ophelia, stop joking. Just—just bring her back. Let me see her. Please."
He hit his knees again, gripping my hand like a drowning man.
I yanked free, ice in my voice. "Raina's been dead for years."
The color drained from his face. "Wh-what? You're lying."
I leaned back on the sofa, crossing my legs. "Remember that trip with Elaine? Raina called you, begging for help. You didn't believe her. You hung up."
Recognition flashed in his eyes. He swayed like the ground had vanished beneath him.
"Kate miscarried. She bled out right in front of Raina. They died together." My smile was razor-thin. "You killed her. So tell me—what gives you the right to ask for her now?"
Lucian crumpled, staring at nothing.
"But… I planned the perfect wedding," he mumbled, voice breaking. "I loved her more than anything. Where is she? Where's Raina?"
He was spiraling, words slurring into nonsense.
I flicked a hand toward the maids. "Get him out of my sight."
