"Caden, you heard correctly. I called him by your elder brother's name."
"Listen carefully. He has been resurrected, but it's not you who was brought back. It's your elder brother, Ronan."

"Stella, what do you mean? Unable to have me, you're now fantasizing about my elder brother?"
"He's already dead! Why would you do something like this? You're being absolutely deranged!"
Listening to Caden's outburst, I felt utterly speechless. He really was full of himself.
"Do you remember something that happened at Ronan's funeral back then?"
