CHAPTER 14
Right now, the realization hit him hard. He wants to hurry things if he knows he made the right decision. He was aware that he had numerous regrets about marrying Jade.
"Sleep now, Emerald. We'll talk tomorrow. Get out of here like my hair is standing on end from the dark," Leandre said.
"It's okay; Daddy might be the only one here," Emerald said.
"Damn you! Stop scaring me like that!"
Emerald was laughing when she suddenly stopped.
"What's the matter, Emerald?" he asked.
But she didn't respond to his question, so he turned on the light and spread it throughout the kitchen, where he saw Emerald standing back in the sink. He approached her and looked at her; he noticed Emerald was snipping; she had just finished crying. He tapped her on the shoulder.
"What's the matter?"
Emerald turned to face her, wiping her eyes and leaning against the sink wall.
