Chapter 15 I turned, my voice ice cold: "Look Hudson, you're officially the last face I ever wanted to see in this lifetime." The pain hit his eyes hard. He gave this awkward nod: "Yeah... I found Noah's note. I know I messed up beyond fixing." "I just... I wanted to see you. Just knowing you're alive, that's enough for me. How are you, Reese?" "Without you around to destroy my life? Yeah, I'm great. I'd be even better if you never showed your face again." He went ghost-white. Couldn't get a word out.

Finally, a bitter laugh: "Knew that was coming. Still had this stupid hope, you know? Like maybe... but seeing your eyes now? That's it. I know I've lost you forever." "Won't bug you anymore, promise. You gave up everything for- your career, your dreams, fifteen years of your life." "I failed you both you and our Noah. I'll make it right. Go be free, Reese. I'll always wish you happiness." The only trace of his presence was a damp spot where he had stood moments before, tears splashing onto the ground beneath his feet.

At least, until tonight.

Clark and I had been together for nearly two years.

We met at an international jewelry exhibition where his company, Trifleming Jewelry, was scouting new talent.

He'd been captivated by my designs, and even more by me, he claimed, His charming smile and gentle manner had slowly broken down the walls I'd built after Hudson's betrayal.

Also, he had been patient, understanding why I kept parts of myself closed off. Never pushed for details about my past when I said it was too painful to discuss. He'd even understood my insistence that we take things slowly physically, respecting boundaries I'd established after my trauma.

At least, that's what I'd believed until this night I met his cheating.
