In the video, Damien was carefully disinfecting a small scratch on her knee. The caption read something that hurt her even more.
[Thank you, brother, for coming so quickly. Thankfully, it’s just a scratch from the electric car!]
Amelia stared at the insignificant injury and, to her own surprise, laughed out loud.
But as the laughter died in her throat, tears began to fall.
Finally, Amelia understood. Damien had made it clear that Victoria’s problems were always urgent, while anything involving Amelia could wait.
Damien, if he knew she came home to tell her parents about their separation, would he regret it? Would he even care? But she no longer expected an answer.
Just then, her phone rang. It was Julian. Their relationship had grown stronger since her divorce.
Amelia answered and Julian’s voice was lighter than before as he spoke, "All the procedures are complete. You just have to wait another week and you’ll be completely free."
He paused for a moment before suggesting, "How about we go out for a meal? We can celebrate your escape from the sea of suffering."
Amelia smiled faintly as she told him from the other end, "Let’s wait until the divorce is fully finalized."
