However, the elderly ladies immediately shoved him back, preventing him from getting close to me. "I've already apologized to you! What more do you want? You used to always—" He hadn't finished his sentence, but I knew what he was going to say. I walked out of the group of elderly ladies and slapped him hard in the cheek. He stared at me in disbelief again. I chuckled coldly. "What did I always use to do? Love you? Forgive you that easily, no matter how terrible a thing you did? Sure, I loved you very much in the past, so much so that I even willingly left Cloudingham to move in with you in the city.

At that moment, I suddenly realized that when he smiled, there was something clean and boyish in his face. He was already in his twenties, yet he still looked like a kid who had never quite grown up. I looked away and handed him a document. “Sign these.” “What are they?” “Equity agreements.” Miles took them and was about to sign without even reading. “Aren’t you going to look at the terms?” “No need.” He shook his head and was already looking for a pen. “You wouldn’t hurt me.” I watched him write his name crookedly across the agreement, and something in my chest softened.

We might never see him again after this…" I gazed at Lyanna, who showed a heartbreaking maturity despite her young age. I wrapped my arms around her in a tight embrace. "I'm sorry, Lyanna. Mommy isn't sad. I'm just—" "I'm just heartbroken on your behalf," I thought. I was heartbroken that she still longed for Matthew's fatherly love, even though he would rather fake his death to abandon his wife and child. She was so pitiful.

"Ever since we were kids, you've been breathing down my neck, controlling every little thing I do. Who the hell do you think you are? "I let you have your way half the time, but can you just leave me alone already? I'm exhausted. Sometimes, I think the gossip was right. No wonder you were abandoned. Who could put up with a jinx like you?" A wave of intense nausea rolled through my empty stomach, a bitter lump forming in my throat. I couldn't throw up or swallow it.

When the sky turned grey, and the horizon released

She was more alive in the Land of Nod than in the current world. But, if dreams are films, do they have producers, script-writers, directors, and all the other crew members required to make one? Catherine asked that, and somehow her mom would then explain to her that her dreams were non-lucid, that they were often bizarre and incoherent. And just a simple thought. Nothing out of the ordinary. And her mother assumed that most of them were forgotten when she awoke. That was what she often broached. Unbeknownst to her, Catherine could recall every single dream she had since forever. Catherine's dream characteristics could even clash with those of a film.

“Have a seat. Do you need anything? Coffee? Tea? Wat—“ “I didn’t come to chit-chat.” She pushed her glasses up her nose and leveled me with her stare. “I got your latest email.” I winced.
