Samuel Johnson sat on the sofa, finding it almost comical.
Everyone makes mistakes, right?
The suffering he endured was his due, so what about hers?
She would have to bear it alone.
His heart was cruelly indifferent, long numb to the emotional stimuli of the outside world, even to Annie spreading that kind of thing everywhere he felt it didn't matter.
Once Samuel Johnson said that sentence, Mrs. Johnson dared not say anything ever again.
She still remembered the shock she felt upon first seeing Annie and naturally understood what Samuel was really saying now.
Gone, never to be found again.
In this world, there would never be another person who loved him more, never be another who cared for him more, never again.
Mrs. Johnson felt her heart panic, only realizing how much that person had cherished Samuel Johnson after they had disappeared.
And that person would never come back.
Even if she found a similar face, she could not bring back that person.
