However, as night fell and Loraine hadn’t returned nor called anyone, they grew concerned. They waited until
Aldo was asleep before jointly deciding to call Loraine.
Wesley, having a more impulsive nature, had just overheard the entire conversation. If not for Rowan’s
intervention, he would have snatched the phone and given Marco an earful.
Rowan understood how protective Wesley was of their beloved niece, a sentiment he shared. However, having
experienced so much, Rowan saw the situation in a deeper Light.
“Wesley, we need to respect Lorrie’s choices, regardless. If she decides to be with Marco, there has to be a
reason for it,” Rowan reasoned.

Wesley looked at him in disbelief.

“Have you Lost your mind? Lorrie is young and naive, so she gets fooled by Marco again and again. How can you
be so gullible? She fell head over heels for Marco, abandoning everything, even forsaking hand concealing
her identity to marry him. And what was the outcome? She endured heartache for three long years! During those
years, what trials did Lorrie face? Have you forgotten that you were the one who brought her back home? Have
you forgotten all of that?”
Rowan recalled those circumstances, a wave of emotions flickering in his eyes.
Of course, he hadn't forgotten.
He would never forget. He still vividly remembered the desperation in
Loraine’s voice when she called him. When he rushed to the hospital, he found their family’s precious gem,
feverish and frail, standing unsteadily by the roadside, teetering on the edge of consciousness.
In that moment, Rowan wished he could bring down wrath on all who had hurt Loraine.
Despite the passage of time, the memory of that incident still filled
Rowan with rage and resentment. His eyes hardened as he said, “I haven't forgotten.”
Wesley, though impetuous at times, was deeply protective when it cto family matters. He stared at Rowan
and sighed, “Brother, do you really think | object to Lorrie being with Marco simply because | despise him?”
His voice softened as he continued, “You know better than anyone the toll that previous ordeal took on Lorrie.
She was deeply wounded. Can we genuinely trust that Marco has truly changed and will sincerely care for Lorrie
based on just a handful of kind gestures?”
Rowan lapsed into silence for a moment before analytically addressing the situation. “I will never forget the harm
he inflicted on Lorrie, and | won't forgive him for that. However, based on our recent interactions, | must admit
that Marco isn’t as abhorrent as we initially believed.”
Before Wesley could interject, Rowan calmly cited an instance.

“After all, he put himself at risk to savein the past, and it was thanks to him that Dad's surgery could
proceed in a timely manner. At the very least, this demonstrates his sincerity.”
Wesley faltered, unable to counter. But after pondering for a moment, he still couldn't reconcile his feelings and
stated, “Even if he has done numerous good deeds for Lorrie, does that absolve him of his past transgressions?
Moreover, all those individuals who harmed Lorrie have sconnection to him. Consider that recent arrival,
Keely, and the incessantly meddlesBryant family members... They're all ticking tbombs. Can we truly
place our trust in Marco?”
Upon hearing this, Rowan furrowed his brow. This was indeed his primary concern.
Even if Marco barely met their minimum criteria, there remained a plethora of unresolved issues surrounding
him.
If Marco didn’t deal with these issues now, they couldn't possibly entrust Loraine to him with a clear conscience.
However, before Rowan could formulate a Logical response, the sound of a car horn outside disrupted his
thoughts.
