Aunt Emilia’s POV
It breaks my heart.
Not just a c***k—a full-blown shatter. Years… wasted. Decades spent clinging to a child that wasn’t mine, raising him, loving him more than I loved myself. I gave up everything for Liam including my very own family. I made him my world. And now? Now he’s stabbed me in the back and chosen her. The enemy. Daisy.
I wish I could lie to myself and say I didn’t see it coming. That I was blindsided. But the truth? The truth is uglier.
I did see it coming.
Every little sign. Every glance he gave her, every hesitation in his voice when I warned him about her. Every time he looked through me as if I were just a shadow in his life. It all makes sense now. Everything has fallen into place. All the loyalty I gave him, all the sacrifices—it meant nothing.
