Celine sat on the bed, cradling the emerald necklace in her hand. However, noticing his anxiousness to get to the hospital, she quietly set it aside.

Despite experiencing a brief moment of joy last night, unresolved issues still lingered between them. Carly had consistently been the formidable obstacle keeping them apart.
