Marina saw a face that looked exactly like Kurt's.
Even though she never saw Kurt's body, she knew Ethan wouldn't lie to her about that. Besides, if Kurt
was alive, he wouldn't have stayed away from her for so many years.
Back then, Kurt was like her lapdog. She never really cared about him. But she hated him after he took
her virginity.
She only had eyes for Ethan back then. She had the urge to get an abortion. When Kurt knew about
that, he pleaded with her not to do it.
He promised to take responsibility after his mission. When he left for the mission, Marina had just
gotten pregnant. It wasn't the best time to get an abortion.
She didn't expect him to die.
Some nights, she would think about him. She would think about him when she looked at Erina, too.
Seeing that face again, Marina couldn't just leave him to die, no matter who he actually was. She

advance.
She knew that Fabian would have his people guarding all the exits. It wasn't time to leave the city yet.
So, she found a place on the outskirts of the city and went to stay there temporarily.
The house was stocked with all the necessities she would need.
The sun was setting. She didn't dare to send Jack to the hospital. So, she asked someone to find a
doctor to tend to his wound.
The doctor was someone who had helped her a lot in the past. It was Tim Blake, the man who handed
Jeff the wedding invitation.
He had received help from Marina when they were abroad. So, he was happy to help her out.
In the past few years, when Marina was crippled, he had wanted to take her away. Marina didn't want
that, so he gave up on that idea.
Two days ago, he received a mission from Marina, which he completed marvelously.
"Why would you bring trouble upon yourself, Ms. Carlton? We'll be able to leave in a few days. This
man might ruin our plans."
Marina sighed. "I won't leave him no matter who he is."
Kurt was her first man, after all. She didn't forget about him despite how she felt about him. She had
many questions she wanted to ask Jack when he woke up.
"Is the doctor you found trustworthy?"
"Don't worry, he's a doctor working in a small town. I'll give him some hush money later."
"That's good. Thank you."
Tim was surprised. After all, Marina used to be very haughty and would never thank anyone. She used
to take everything for granted.
"Ms. Carlton, you've changed."
Marina shook her head resignedly. "Of course, I would change after going through so much."
"You must be hungry. I'll cook something for you."

"Sure."
Marina sat in the yard and looked up at the moon. She thought about the day when Kurt left.
She was throwing a huge fit. He got down on one knee and tried to calm her down.
"I have to go now. I swear I'll take responsibility when I come back. Wait for me."
He left in a hurry, but even while he took his last breath, he asked Ethan to take care of her and her
baby.
He knew Marina had always liked Ethan. That was why he used his death to force Ethan into taking
care of her. That was the only thing he could do for the woman he loved.
People had always been selfish. But they could also be extremely selfless for the people they loved.
Kurt was so selfless that all he ever wanted was for Marina to live a happy life.
Marina sighed deeply.
"Kurt, would things be different if you were still alive?" Marina thought to herself.
