Isabella Thornton: Glares Why must you meet her? Explain. Now.
Picks up a small suitcase from the corner of the room I have enough money to find a new place. I need some time away from all of this.
Shakes her head firmly No, Greater. I need to figure things out on my own. But I promise, I'll come back. For our child.
Looks at Greater with a determined expression Goodbye, Greater. I hope you find happiness with her. But remember, if you ever need my help, I'll be there.
Rolls her suitcase towards the door, then turns back to look at Greater one last time Take care of yourself, Greater. And for the sake of our child, try to be a good father.
Walks out of the room, dragging her suitcase behind her. The door closes shut with a resounding thud.
Pauses, hand on the doorknob, without turning around What is it, Greater?
Here’s a key to my condo. If you need my help, I’ll be there.
Raises an eyebrow, surprised You're giving me a key to your condo? After everything that's happened?
Smirks Fine. I'll take the key. But don't think this changes anything between us. You hurt me, Greater, and I won't forget that.
I know. I won’t forget it either.
Turns around to face Greater, holding the key between her fingers Good. Just remember that.
Places the key on the table, her voice cold and calculated Alright, Greater. I'll be watching from afar.
Turns around and walks out of the room, her heels clicking against the floor, leaving Greater alone in silence
Sighs and rubs his forehead Damn...
In a flash, Isabella sends a text message to Greater "Don't forget to feed the cat while I'm gone. And don't expect me to do it for you anymore."
Three days later, Isabella receives a desperate call from Greater, begging for her help due to an unexpected crisis at his condo.
