Victor's pov. A meticulous and well-planned event was unfolding behind the scenes of the community soup kitchen. The primary aim of this intricately organized affair was to bring Mary and me together once again after years of separation.

Upon requesting Mary's aid, her face displayed evident confusion. It seemed as though her troubled history weighed heavily on her; a medley of emotions erupted in the form of astonishment at being asked for help, seeing a familiar visage once more and unspoken inquiries left hanging like dangling threads. Asking Mary for help wasn't my usual inquiry. The proposal of marriage was surrounded by secrecy and uncertain circumstances.

Noah's Perspective Despite the vastness of New York City and its countless opportunities, I recently undertook a clandestine assignment. While Victor conducted an extensive investigation for Mary, my methods were more restrained. Armed with cunning techniques and strategic deployment of funds as leverage, I commenced operations without incident. However, my hired informants had different intentions. Instead of leading me to Mary's hiding place, they directed me towards Judith's residence. Although it was a brief diversion from our plan, I could always count on dependable Judith who ultimately guided me to the correct destination - Mary's actual apartment. As soon as I laid eyes on Mary, an array of emotions coursed through my veins.

There was a tension, in the air indicating that something significant was about to be revealed. Jane spoke softly. With an imploring tone as she addressed me. "I want you to know that my feelings for you have never faded " she said earnestly. "The relationships you had with Victor and Noah in school were a facade, a way to hide our true relationship." The room filled with the weight of her words and memories, from our shared past came rushing. However doubts began to creep into my mind as I questioned Janes intentions. "I'm trying to understand what you meant Jane" I said, hoping for some clarity, in this situation. After a pause and averted gaze from her eyes she finally replied.
