CHAPTER 72

  Chloe grabbed the last object belonging to her husband, the snow globe. It was a glass ball containing white flakes and a girl doll dressed in a tiny dress and sandals. It stood at the center of the globe, one arm raised and the second one wrapped around itself. It looked like it enjoyed the weather, despite the inappropriate dressing. She remembered his words the day he brought home the ornament.

  "It depicts the fact that you can be anything, do anything regardless of the consequences because sometimes, we face consequences when we believe that there are indeed punishments for certain acts."

  She had placed a tray of tea on the table in front of him then, her face grim.

  "If that was so, then there will be no more good people in the world."

  "Look at you." He laughed. "Thinking everyone in the world is good or that anyone is good. Everyone has a darker side. A mirror of themselves that they are always afraid to let out. Until they are pushed."
