Helena's POV
Victor disappeared an hour ago, and Patrick still hasn't come back.
He abandoned me weeping on the sofa, ignoring my pleas for him to remain. How is it possible to feel so deeply for someone who shows such indifference toward me in return?
Images from the waterfall keep drifting through my thoughts.
He appeared to genuinely care during those moments, though perhaps it was merely an act to obtain what he desired from me. Despite my repeated attempts to connect with Aria, she continues refusing to reveal details about her history with Victor. This leaves me with only scattered memory fragments that she occasionally allows me to glimpse.
