Chapter 275 Why I Had To Leave

• As Aidan drove home that evening, a strange sense of weightlessness took over him. His heart hummed with excitement, his hands gripping the steering wheel just a little too tightly as the world outside blurred by. He had found her. After four long years of wondering, searching, and hoping, he had finally found Emily again. The disbelief still lingered at the edges of his mind, but it was soon overtaken by something stronger: pure, unadulterated joy.
• He replayed the day’s events over and over, her face, her voice, her touch—it was as if all the missing pieces of his life had fallen into place in those brief moments at the store. His mom had always told him that love had a way of returning, even in a world of billions. He never quite believed it, not until today. He chuckled softly, a strange mix of relief and disbelief.
• Arriving home, Aidan barely parked the car properly before rushing into his apartment. He tossed his jacket aside, his eyes darting toward his phone. He needed to call her, to hear her voice again, to make sure this wasn’t some cruel dream. His hands were trembling as he dialed the number she had given him.
