Ten days after the wedding, Amara discovered a locked drawer in Edward’s study. Inside were letters from his late wife, including one addressed directly to Amara that had been written before the marriage.
In the letter, Edward’s wife expressed gratitude that someone kind had come into his life after her death. She believed Amara was the person who could care for him, keep him company, and help him feel loved again.
The discovery made Amara realize that their marriage was never about money or appearances. She and Edward had simply found comfort, companionship, and love in each other, despite what outsiders assumed about their relationship.
