Hank closed his eyes. After a moment of silence, he opened them, fixing Bradley with an expression of determined
resignation. “You love her.”
As Hank uttered those three words, the invisible fear that had held him seemed to vanish instantly.
“Mr. Warner, love is the most inexplicable emotion in the world. Two strangers can become the closest people in the
world, and the actions of the other person can stir your heart.”
“Based on my psychological assessment of you, you love Esther, or at the very least, she is the most important
woman in your life.”
“You—”
Bradley stood up, his cold gaze locked onto Hank’s serious face. “It’s impossible! I can’t possibly love Esther!”
Hank was slightly taken aback but maintained a calm tone. “Mr. Warner, I don’t understand why you refuse to admit

possessiveness toward her. Because you love her, you wanted to keep her by your side forever. Because you love
her, you thought you were betrayed”
“Mr. Warner, loving someone is nothing to be ashamed of! Admitting your love is not—”
Before Hank could finish, Bradley yanked the door open and left, ignoring Hank’s calls.
“Mr. Warner!
Bradley didn’t respond, so Hank had no choice but to call Kevin.
Kevin intercepted Bradley in the hospital garden.
“Bradley, what’s wrong? Did the psychologist hit the nail on the head with your secret, and you’re reacting in
anger?” Kevin’s gaze was mocking.
“Do you know what the saddest thing in the world is? It’s not that you love someone and you don’t know it! It’s that
you love them, but they’re no longer in this world!
“I’ve reminded you before that you love Esther. You’ve been arrogant and refused to admit it. Now that Esther has
passed away, you’ve realized your feelings. But what can you do? Esther is gone, and you’ll never be able to say ‘I
love you’ to the woman you love!”
Bradley seized Kevin by his collar, still unwilling to admit it. “Did you and the psychologist conspire against me?”
Kevin sneered. “Bradley, it’s quite pitiful that you don’t even have the courage to admit your own feelings.”
Bradley released his grip on Kevin’s collar, left the hospital, and flagged down a taxi. “Take me to Coastal Highway
9!”
“Alright.”
Fearing that Bradley might get into trouble, Kevin reluctantly followed the taxi and arrived at Coastal Highway 9.
The highway had returned to its bustling state. Because of its beautiful scenery, countless newlyweds were taking

Bradley stopped the taxi and made his way through the crowd of couples, heading to the cliff where Esther had
fallen. The roadside guardrail, which had been damaged by the car, had been replaced with a new one. The rocks
scorched by the fire had also been covered in graffiti.
The sea breeze ruffled Bradley’s silver-gray hair, and his hair gently danced in the wind. He gazed at the cliff, his
mind filled with the tragic scene of the car tumbling off the edge.
He wondered…
If only time could be turned back, he wouldn’t have collided with Esther’s car.
If only time could be turned back, he would have risked his own life to prevent Esther’s death.
An emotion known as “heartache” spread from the depths of his heart.
Did he love Esther?
Even though he was convinced that he didn’t love Esther, why did everyone keep saying that he did?
