Chapter two hundred and thirty nine

Mrs Whitney cried the more hearing him mention her children. That can only mean he knows so much more than she imagined.

"You don't understand Jack, she was going to kill me if I tried to even get in touch with the family. I had to leave for the sake of everyone. I didn't want more people getting hurt because of me. It was the best thing I could do at the time. At least that was what I thought." Mrs Whitney said and Jack walked closer to her contemplating whether or not to tell her about her children.

"And what do you think now?" He asked her and she sniffed back the tears threatening to fall down her eyes.

"I wished that I stayed back and fought for my children. I wish I wasn't so weak, and stupid. I can only imagine what might have happened now." Mrs Whitney said and Jack exhaled sharply.

"I pray that life will give me the opportunity to see my children once more and correct all the wrong." Mrs Whitney said and broke down in tears.
