"Yes, I've always turned down the idea of marriage because my heart belongs to someone else. But now I see she's happy, I think it's tforto move on," Finnegan shared his feelings.
Richard picked up on who he was talking about. "You mean Esther?" "Since you've figured it out, I'm relieved you won't make fun of me. I've been secretly admiring her for ten years." Finnegan said those words calmly, but could anyone really understand the rollercoaster of emotions he experienced over those ten years, quietly admiring her from a distance? And now, seeing her with someone else, how could he not feel heartbroken? Richard stayed silent for a while, then chose to keep quiet because he knew he couldn't suggest his friend try to take someone else's fiancee. Esther was with James now, and nothing could change that, not even Mobius. So, what could Finnegan do? Finnegan smiled a little and shook his head. "I'm ready to accept this." After ten years of silently caring for her, his heart had no room for anyone else. In that case, he thought it might be best to let his parents choose someone for him, someone who could also help with his career. That seemed like the best solution for now.
Richard decided not to say anything, understanding Finnegan had his own way of dealing with things.
The room becquiet.
Then Pearl who had been listening to their conversation, suddenly your book, 'Chasing Ligh "Finnegan, do you remember book, 'Chasing Light'? Of course, Finnegan was all too familiar with it, so he nodded. "What about it?" "On the first page, you wrote, 'I reached for the light, but it burnedet my hand. I let it go and light myself, just like you did."", S Finnegan was impressed by her memory. "Yes, and?" "Was Esther the light you were talking about?" Pearl questioned.
Finnegan didn't expect his secret to cout, and he blushed.
"You knew you couldn't be with her, et so you chose to let go, but you never stopped striving. You decided to becfight yourself, just as she was to you," Pearl interpreted his words and smiled at him. "Am understanding that correctly?" Finnegan laughed. "I wouldn't expect less from you, Pea. You're absolutely right." Richard frowned when Finnegan called her Pea. "Pea?" Finnegan realized his slip-up and quickly explained, "That's her pen name. We all call her Pea." Richard then understood what Finnegan meant when they were saving Esther from the village. Pearl was really a writer.
