That made hindistrustful. In the end, he didn't know who in the family to trust. I was in a vulnerable position, so I couldn't take any risks. If your wife wanted to kill me, telling you would make her eventually find out I was still alive." "No, I understand your logic..." "Con, Maximus. Back then, all I saw was that you were a proud businessman, and also completely in love with your wife. I understand it perfectly. I might've done the same." "It tookfive years to recover from the trauma, well, physically, what could be recovered. My memories were completely erased.

By the tI could leave the hospital, I had already learned everything about you all, my family, and even found Mary, but by then, she had been married to Marcus for two years. That's when I realized that it was true-you knew I was dead, and it was normal for you to continue with your lives. I had no reason to interfere. My presence would only disturb the peace of your lives, and adding to that, I couldn't recover my memories. I would only be a burden to you, since even Grandma Catherine was no longer around. She died almost the moment I woke up from the coma." Maximus's face was in shock, tears rolling down his cheeks The man in front of him, elegantly sipping his coffee, was his brother, but at the stime, a complete stranger. He spoke as if reading from a script.
"Peter, I don't know what to say. So much has happened, I don't even know where to start. I know Alexia hurt you, it was all my damn fault. I should never have let that woman into the family..."

I don't want to change things. You all are peaceful here, and I lived peacefully in Slovenia. I didn't need anything else," "Have you remarried?" "No! With my ailments, who would want me?
