Pierre hurriedly moved to support Selena, who was inconvenienced by her bandaged arm that was hung on her neck.

Selena slowly walked over to him, gazing at him as tears fell from her eyes.

"Dad, you always talked about what ifs with me, and I had always wanted to tell you something. On that day when you found out that Megan planned to take Finneas from me, if you hadn't solely shielded her and had taken my side, brought me justice, treated all of us fairly, been a good father, and taught Meredith and Megan well... If you had done all that, the later half of your life would've been so wonderful. I would not have hated you, and Meredith and Megan would have been proper women. Sadly, you had chosen to cover for them and shield them no matter what, which led to this."

I will hold a proper funeral for you and carry out every ritual you would've wanted. If you got to reincarnate, Dad, I hope you'd be a good man next time and treat your wife and children well."
