A heavy silence settled over the room, so oppressive that it was almost difficult to breathe.No one could find the words.The name André had just spoken still hung in the air, as though it refused to disappear.Isabella Harrison.Ethan slowly ran a hand over his face. His fingers were trembling.“This isn’t possible…”Clark kept his eyes on him.“You knew her?”Ethan shook his head.“No… never.”He remained silent for a few seconds before continuing in a quieter voice.“My father rarely spoke about her. All he ever said was that she had died very young… in a fire.”André was breathing with difficulty.His chest barely rose, and every word seemed to require an enormous effort.“She… she didn’t die… in that fire…”I immediately moved closer to his bed.Without thinking, a word escaped my lips:“Dad…”I froze myself when I heard the word come out of my mouth.André’s eyes immediately lit up.A faint smile appeared on his tired face.“Thank you…”He closed his eyes for a brief moment, as
