Chapter 247: Then why did you marry him?
Kim flew out of the country to the town she got so familiar with many months ago. Sitting in the private jet owned by Jackson, Kim stared at the dark sky and thin clouds through the window.
"She’ll never going to live again if he dies, Jack. I’m putting a stop to my mother’s suffering, and I hope since you’ve already had a chance to be together... you’ll be able to let her go."
Those were her words to Jackson, but they were also for her and Dustin. Fil had died and was reborn many times over the course of centuries. If Fil knew about this — if the original Filomena knew about this — she would be disappointed in them.
But how could they easily let go of someone who changed their lives?
"But this time..." she trailed off, thinking of the relationship she built with Fil.
These past several months, although Kim volunteered to lead the search for Quentin, she would occasionally see Fil. They were good friends; it wouldn’t be a stretch if they were called best friends now.
’After 21 lifetimes, I was able to laugh with her, stay with her, have meals with her, and show her my heart.’ Her eyes softened at the thought. ’I can live with that last memory.’
If Kim managed to end Quentin in this lifetime, Fil would never get reborn again. This would be her last life. Perhaps it would also be Kim’s last lifetime as well. After all, she was also exhausted from living without an end.
Just like Jackson, Kim also wanted one thing in this lifetime. Aside from putting her beloved mother to rest, she wanted one good life with her. One was enough.
