“Guy agrees, too, by the way.”

He what?

“You keep gaping at me like someone without brains.” Jack was now staring at her, visibly disturbed by her reaction. “Does marriage make one dumb?”

Jilly would have answered no in the past, but right now, she wasn’t so sure.

“Why... why did you say earlier that I hit the jackpot with Guy?”

“Whose idea do you think this menu was?”

“I...I...”

“You’d never be the type to tell your staff what you love to eat. Who else could have told them then?” Jack then pointed to the new garden beds, their blooms glowing in the lantern light. “See that?”

Tears began to prick her eyes as she realized that they were all her favorite flowers.

“And then there's that.”

The mysterious cabin that was undergoing renovation, its skeletal frame outlined against the darkening sky.

“Have you checked what that is?”

“They said it’s for new staff...”

“Judging by the square footage of the house, it can likely accommodate three new staff members, possibly a full-time vet and two caretakers to provide round-the-clock assistance.” Jack pointed to the specialized ventilation system being installed. “That’s likely where the lab will be located based on the medical-grade air filtration units. And that shows they have both a quarantine room and ICU prepared for all emergencies.”

This time, she just had to cut him off so she could ask Jack—

“What are you getting at?”

“Guy wants to make sure you have the best life, in case you can’t find it in your heart to forgive him.”

Jack patted her head awkwardly as she started to cry, the gesture both comforting and endearingly clumsy.

"I can't believe...didn't see...so stupid..."

Jack privately agreed. Marriage had remarkably lowered his sister's I.Q. It was a good thing he had no plans to tie the knot.

JACK HITCHED A RIDEwith her as Darwin took them back to San Antonio, and throughout the ride, Jilly could only fight back tears as Jack told her how he had been spending much of his free time with his new brother.

I'm so sorry, God.

Ever since that huge misunderstanding over Jack’s role in her life, the enemy had managed to flood Jilly's mind with so, so many fears—

What if Jack causes trouble again, but to Guy’s career?

Is it worth disrupting the orderly life I have with Jack and the babies?

Isn’t it easier to just forget Guy and move on?

I just don’t want to be hurt again.

I was happy before he came into my life.

I can be happy again.

—that she had ended up convincing herself she was doing the right thing by letting go.
