Nothing Lasts for Eternity Chapter 25
Winter was finally over, and it was getting warmer as spring returned.The Green family received word from their lawyer back in their home country.After the first trial, Irene's appeal, the second trial, and several more rounds of procedures, the court officially confirmed that she had masterminded a crime and sentenced her according to the law.The one who had committed the crime had finally received the punishment she deserved. It was, without question, the best kind of comfort for the victim.That day also happened to be Jackson's birthday. Liana personally cooked, filling the table with dishes, and the three of them raised their glasses in celebration.They had been in Espada for almost half a year now, and Sinead had already grown used to life here.There were still plenty of inconveniences, but discovering new and interesting things as she explored had become its own kind of joy.She had made many new friends and had slowly found what her real interests were.On such a g

Three days later, Nelson returned to Lunacoast alone.When he got home, the villa next door was lit up again.The butler told him the Green family had already handled all their assets in the country, and the new neighbors had moved in two days ago.Only then did Nelson finally feel like nothing was going to ever go back to how it had been.He stayed in his room alone all night, unable to sleep.Early the next morning, as he was looking out the window, he saw the new neighbors taking down the swing in the garden, swapping the pink and white curtains for dark green ones, and cutting the wind chime at the doorway before throwing it away.Everything that had anything to do with the Green family, with Sinead, was slowly disappearing from his world.And he could not stop any of it. All he could do was drink himself numb day after day.His heart, already torn full of holes, slowly turned hollow as he stopped reacting to anything.Love and hate, pain and regret, joy and hope... All of

With every word Sinead spoke, Nelson's heart became even colder. He could only watch as she walked away, his hands falling uselessly to his sides as his exhausted eyes slowly turned red, welling with tears.A deep, crushing helplessness and despair surged up in his chest until even his breathing turned short and uneven.Nelson sat alone in a corner for a long time.By the time the restaurant was about to close, a waiter came over to remind him about the closing time, and he finally came back to his senses. He pressed the bag in his hand into the waiter's palms and quietly asked him for a favor.-The heat pads had brought the swelling down, but the pain was still there. As she had been busy dealing with the swelling, Sinead had not even eaten dinner.Jackson and Liana had specially brought a steak up for her, but when they saw the bruises on her leg, their heart ached for her.A hotel staff member arrived with some towels just then, so they asked a few questions.When they hear

Early the next morning, the Green family grabbed their suitcases and got ready to go skiing.Sinead let out a quiet sigh of relief when she did not see Nelson at the door, and she pushed her suitcase toward the back of the car.She had just set everything in place when she heard Jackson call out. "What's this? Sinead, did you leave a neighbor's birthday present at the door?"She turned and saw that all too familiar box. A slight frown appeared on her face. She hurried over, took the box from him, and handed it to the butler before giving him the Lane family's address, telling him to mail it back home later.Jackson and Liana only grew more curious and spent the whole drive asking who had sent the present. Seeing that she could not keep it from her parents, Sinead finally came clean and told them about the previous night as well as about Kenny and Opal's birthday messages.The car fell quiet for a while before Jackson nodded, slow and firm."Your mom and I have been wondering how

Sinead had not really let herself go in a long time, so she had a few drinks at the pajama party. After a fierce pillow fight, her mood hit a peak. She was so high she could have said hi to a passing cat.That giddy state lasted until the party ended. After she walked the last two neighbors, who were drunk to the point of being barely conscious, back to their homes, she hummed a song as she headed home.From a distance, she saw a blurred figure standing at her front door, a box in his hand.It was already late, and her party was already over. Who would be showing up at this time?As she walked closer and saw his face clearly, the smile slid from Sinead's lips, and her tone went cold. "What are you doing here?"Catching the shift in her mood, pain appeared in Nelson's eyes, and his voice came out hoarse."Happy birthday, Sinead."Sinead did not answer. She went straight to the door without looking at him and fit the key into the lock, heading inside.Thinking she had not heard hi

When the Green family got the news that the prosecutor's office would press charges on Irene, they finally let out a collective sigh of relief. They handed everything else over to their lawyer and flew back to Matrice.Sinead was far from her homeland now, and the people and worries of the past felt distant too. She could finally breathe easy.As the days passed, she slowly settled into life in Espada...-One day, Jackson and Liana asked Sinead what she planned to do next. She picked up a piece of fruit, held it to her mother's lips, and blinked. "Mom, I've been thinking about that too. I kind of want to keep studying, but I also want to rest a bit longer, find a job, and get some work experience. Do you two have any suggestions?"The breeze in the garden was a little strong, so Jackson brought out two blankets for his wife and daughter, smiling widely. "You'll still only be twenty-three even after your birthday in a few days. Work can wait, and you'll have plenty of chances late
