Aria Grant had never expected George to have experienced such events before. As she listened, tears streamed down her face too.

As Aria wiped her own tears, she asked George, "But why didn't I know about such a sensational incident? I never heard anyone discussing the grievances between the Flack and Yates families."

George wanted to cry too, but tears wouldn't come, as if he had cried them all out. The worst part was the bleeding in his heart. He picked up a tissue and handed it to Aria.
