Chapter 283
At that moment, Rose’s father stood before Alice with a hesitation that had not been there earlier, because the pride that had once made it easy for him to criticize, judge, and dismiss the man standing in front of him had been stripped away by everything he had witnessed that night, leaving behind nothing except embarrassment, regret, and the difficult realization that he had been wrong about Alice from the very beginning.
