Goodbye, My Love

In reality, her anger had long since cooled. But she was torn by their tangled past and mutual misunderstandings.

Their three-year marriage ended in failure, and she was uncertain if they could truly wipe the slate clean and make it work a second time. NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

Their relationship was fraught with uncertainty, and Keely was just a spark in their underlying issues of trust and honesty.

Looking at Marco, Loraine asked, “Will you… be completely transparent with me and not keep secrets? WiLL you stop deceiving me?”

Marco nodded instantly and relayed his plans concerning Keely to

Loraine.

“I’ve made arrangements. I’m sending Keely overseas tonight.

She won’t be coming back. Loraine, since the incident where Keely hurt you, any lingering kindness because of Jorge has been utterly destroyed. If it weren’t for my wish to allow her to pay her last respects to Jorge, I wouldn’t have allowed her to come back this time…”

Loraine placed her hand on his lips, halting his words mid-sentence.

“I don’t want to hear anything more about Keely. I just need to know if you’ll be open with me and stop keeping secrets.”

In the past, she had been like a moth drawn to a flame. She married

Marco and concealed her identity out of love. Despite her trials in the

Bryant family, she refrained from burdening Marco with complaints, aware of his demanding schedule. She was merely a decorative wife.

She dared not seek too much of his attention, nor burden him. In their three years together, her biggest hope was for him to spend time with her, to notice her more.

This also resulted in their Limited communication over the years and their tendency to bury misunderstandings deep within themselves.

This was the heart of their problem.

It wasn’t until she reclaimed her status as the Torres family’s daughter that Marco slowly learned to express his affection for her, bringing them closer together.

Yet now, due to Keely, they had reverted to their old ways.

Ultimately, they lacked trust in each other.

Marco held her hand, placed it on his chest, and gave a solemn nod.

“Loraine, I should not have hidden the fact that I took Keely to pay respects to Jorge, feigning it was for your protection and out of concern. I promise, I won’t allow you to be hurt again, and I won’t deceive or conceal anything from you.”

Loraine bit her Lip, seeking reassurance once more, “Really? No more deceptions or secrets?”

Their trust issues extended far beyond just Keely. At times, Loraine was frustrated that Marco wasn’t communicative, yet she hoped he could genuinely be truthful and share what he had kept hidden.
