Chapter 105 Chasing Ghosts—Part 1

• Austin had every intention of taking Tim's call, but once he stepped onto the balcony, he couldn't bring himself to pick up. So he stood there awhile, thinking about Marybeth's revelations, the beauty of the sun sinking low on the horizon lost to him.
• He'd tried the whole afternoon to keep it together for her sake, but now that he was alone, he could finally confront the intense emotions swirling in his heart.
• Was he surprised to learn about Iris' infidelity? Not really. After all, for years, there'd been rumours about her. But now that those said rumours had been confirmed, he'd be the first to admit he was bitterly hurt and somewhat enraged. Maybe because when they got engaged, he'd poured all his energy into making their relationship work and never thought of straying, not even once. He was a fool for believing she would do the same.
