"If only Edgary had married you back then. Those poor children... What have they become under Adrianna's influence? So young, yet full of lies and rude words. Thank goodness Edgary's genes are strong and that you have been there to guide them, or they would never have gotten into such prestigious universities."
For a moment, my heart broke.
When the Mckay family learned of the twins' illness, they left without hesitation.
For years, they ignored the children.
I juggled drug research with caring for two sick children, and I did not sleep more than five hours a night. My friends feared I would die from exhaustion.
For their sake, I bit the bullet and persevered.
Finally, Osvaldo and Shania got better and they got into their dream schools.
I was so close, just a little closer, and I could have seen them achieve their dreams...
Tears welled up in my eyes, but before they could fall, I met Edgar's cold gaze.
"Are you trying to disgrace the Mckay family on such a happy day by dressing like that? Where are Osvaldo and Shania? They cannot be allowed to be as unruly as you."
He lowered his voice, laced with threats.
