Chapter 88 Tears

• Alexander’s POV
• The weight of the room's tension hung heavily as I sat there, feeling the weight of responsibility for the pain that my presence had caused. Sophia's parents, Richard and Anne, were still visibly upset, and Richard's disappointment had cut deeply. I cleared my throat, trying to find the words to mend the broken trust.
• "I want to sincerely apologize once again," I began, my voice steady but filled with remorse. "I deeply regret any pain and disappointment my actions have caused you, especially Sophia. We didn't take this decision lightly, and we knew it was time to confess to you, to be honest about our feelings and intentions."
