She swore she’d rebuild the Reids with her own two hands. She would climb her way back up and make the family name shine again.

By the time night settled over the Winter Estate, the house was glowing with light.

Virginia had ordered the kitchen to prepare a grand dinner. The whole family sat waiting in the living room, excited to celebrate once Tyrone and Aella came back from getting their marriage license.

But when the door opened, only Tyrone walked in.

He said nothing. His expression was dark as he sat across from his parents.

Virginia frowned and stood up.

“Were there a lot of couples at the office today?”

Her voice tightened. “Why are you the only one here?

“Where’s Aella?”

Tyrone’s gaze dropped to the fruit plate on the table. His voice was quiet and flat. “We didn’t get it.”

Virginia froze, her eyes narrowing. Her first thought was that they’d argued.

She stepped closer, her tone harsh. “Did you make her mad again? What did you do this time?”

Tyrone replied without emotion. “Nothing happened. We were just late.”

He had gone over every possible reason in his head. He couldn’t figure out why she’d suddenly refused.

In his previous life, he had failed her in every way.

He had never earned her forgiveness, not even at the end.

If she had also come back, she would’ve said it straight to his face. That was who she was. She would never walk away in silence.

Something else had to be behind it.

Ralph slammed his palm on the couch. “You begged for this wedding! You wanted that girl more than anything. The house is ready, the news is out, and now you’re telling me this? You better not screw it up!”

Tyrone finally lifted his eyes. “I’m not using that house. After the wedding, we’ll live at Bluchaven.”

Whether she remembered the past or not, he would never go back there.

Zera and her son had once stayed in that house. Aella had called it dirty.

She hated anything unclean.

He would never let her face that disgust again.

Virginia rubbed her temples. “Then go find her. Pick another date and go get that license.”

Before he could respond, Raine burst into the room, breathing hard.

“Mom! Dad!” she shouted, pointing at Tyrone. “He made Aella mad! She ran off crying!”

Tyrone’s jaw clenched. “Raine, stop talking nonsense.”

She ducked behind her mother, her voice dropping. “Brad saw it too. When they were taking photos at the office, Aella suddenly took off.”

Virginia’s face turned cold as she stared at her son.

Her tone was sharp as glass. “Tyrone, are you having second thoughts about marrying her?”

He lowered his head, silent. Then he shook it once.

Ralph’s voice thundered through the room. “You begged for that engagement. You’re not backing out now. You go to the Reids tonight, set a new date, and make it right.”

Virginia’s tone matched her husband’s. “Don’t think you can push her around because she loves you. You’re going over there right now to apologize.”

Tyrone rose to his feet and nodded.

He had been given a second chance at life, and he wouldn’t waste it. He would marry her again.

He would stay clean. He would protect her, care for her, and love her in a way no one else ever could.

At the doorway, he turned back to look at his parents and sister.

He would protect them too this time. He would never repeat the same tragedy. He would be their bedrock.

The summer sky dimmed slowly, painting the city in soft gold before it finally turned dark.

By the time Tyrone reached Aella’s building, it was just after eight. The streetlights had begun to glow, stretching long shadows across the pavement.

Clyde opened the door in shorts and a tank top, grinning. “Hey, Tyrone!” His hair was nothing longer than a buzzcut.

Tyrone’s eyes landed on the bandage around the boy’s ankle. He crouched down and pressed the spot gently.

Clyde laughed. “It doesn’t hurt anymore.”

Tyrone said calmly, “Don’t rush it. Weak muscles can tear your ligaments again.”

As they talked, Aella’s parents appeared and invited him inside.

He stepped into the living room and glanced around. No Aella.

His feet moved on their own toward her bedroom. Clyde knocked on the door. “Aella, open up.”

The door opened, and Aella stood there. When she saw Tyrone, she froze. Then she turned away, ready to go back in.

“Aella.”

Tyrone reached out, his arm blocking the door.

Her

parents exchanged uneasy looks. The tension in the air was thick.

Miriam spoke gently. “Whatever happened, talk about it calmly. Don’t keep it bottled up.”

Aella stayed quiet.

Tyrone’s voice softened. “It’s still early. Let’s take a walk.”

Aella hesitated, then nodded.

She had been meaning to face him anyway.

They walked side by side, silent as they left the neighborhood.

The city lights shimmered above them, and their shadows stretched far behind under the lamps.

At the corner, Aella stopped beneath the glow of a streetlight.

She turned to him, her eyes steady and serious. Tyrone stood opposite her, tall and composed.

Since he turned eighteen, his father and grandfather had thrown him into the world of business.

His white shirt fit his broad shoulders perfectly. He hadn’t styled his hair tonight, and it fell naturally across his forehead, softening his sharp aura. Still, his features were striking- handsome, defined, and far too mature for his age.
