In their 6-year marriage, Nora never succeeded in making Austin fall in love with her. Upon learning of her stage-IV cancer, she only begged for ten months. "After ten months, I will divorce you. Please, don't hate me." "What game are you playing?" "I'm tired and want to be free." Childhood sweethearts grew old as time passed. Nora loved Austin for 13 years, while Austin gave all his love to someone else. Austin decided to divorce Nora, who was suffering great pain from illness. "Austin, can you wait a little longer?" "Nora, don't love me anymore." In Austin's world, Nora was a restraint, but losing her felt like losing his heart. When all memories surfaced, Austin woke up and realized that the person he loved was always Nora. Nora died during surgery on the operating table, leaving behind their child. "I'm tired; I can't love you anymore. In the next life, let's not meet again. We forgive each other. From now on, we owe each other nothing!" Austin regretted not realizing it sooner and closed off his heart, living each day as if it were the last until one day. "Sir, I am Hannah, not Nora."

Love that Never Fade

"Nora, actually, Austin has improved in these years. He has been dedicated to taking care of his son and hasn't dated anyone. He has become the kind of man you might have imagined. I won't oppose if you come back. I've seen some things with my own eyes," Harper advised.


Hannah was still struggling, finding it hard to accept Austin for now. "Please, stop. I heard about the past from Colin. I can't forgive him temporarily. I came here because of Cherub. He's my son, and I must take responsibility for his growth."


"Austin hurt you for five years, but he also waited for you for five years. You've been going around in circles for over a decade," Harper held Hannah's hand, whether she remembered or not, they were still good friends.


Hannah felt comforted and squeezed her hand back. "I know. Give me some time."
