Esther lost the baby and spiraled into madness after the incident. As for Clarice, after my dad divorced her, she disappeared.

"Of course. Now, get up, and let's get ready." With the music filling the air, they moved in harmony to the tune of Ellie Goulding's "How Long Will I Love You." As the song concluded, Ian cupped Kim's cheek, gazing into her eyes. "How long will I love you?" he posed.

Time sure zoomed by. Today was my 19th birthday, but my science project flopped. It made me wonder if I was just not cut out to be a doctor. I ended up turning on my old phone and saw a few messages.

Eleanor watched the closed door, reached up, pulled the necklace off, and tossed it into the trash as casually as if she were throwing away an ordinary piece of rubbish. "What a shame, Harrison. If you'd said all this in my last life, I might've been moved. But now, I don't want your 'one and only' anymore."

Every inch of the screen was soaked in color and sound that turned my stomach inside out, leaving nothing but raw disgust. Only when the first gray light of dawn crept in did Claire finally end the call reluctantly.

You are under investigation for tax evasion and related charges. Please come with us."

"You want that plot of land in the east district Ettore's been after, too? What's in it for me?" Vittorio smiled at me. "Freedom. Real freedom, and a chance to make Ettore regret everything."

But my eternity only lasted seven years.

As he closed the door, my son suddenly shouted loud enough for him to hear, “Daddy!” Henry froze for a moment, sticking his head out and meeting my son’s red-rimmed eyes. After a long silence, he finally spoke. “Drive safe.” This time, he did not correct Lyle. However, that was the last time my son would ever call him Daddy.
