Chapter 76. The Reunion

• I left with an optimism that I had not felt for a long time; I had never thought that I would have the chance to see Christian again, to discover that we were only victims of circumstances and that most of the things my mother's family had told me were not true... I could not help but remember the image of a completely destroyed man trying to convince me not to get married, while I despised him, my heart shrank in my chest, numerous hypotheses opened up inside me, if something had happened to him, if Christian had suddenly lost the will to live, if he had lost his will to live? I shook my head and dismissed these thoughts because he had to know that we had a son and now we had a chance to start over.
• I was very nervous, it was a moment of uncertainty for me, but I was determined to find him and tell him everything, his friend Isaac decided to accompany me while Leonard stayed at Christian's house because he needed to talk to Abby, he was certainly worse off than I was because in his case he had acted to harm the brother of the woman he loved, knowing he was innocent and although Abby was a good girl, who knows if she would be able to forgive him.
• "I think we should have left the boy at the mansion, because we don't know where we're going or what we're going to face," Isaac suggested, worried about little Saul.
