The way he spoke made Emily think there was also a slight pain in his voice. Another dead end in the conversation.
The first raindrops fell, and she checked her watch.
“I’d better be going. I’ll be back on Wednesday.”
Connor said his thanks before Emily turned to leave. She was startled, though, by Jack’s expression. The sadness stored from over twenty years was obvious in that moment. He must’ve heard their conversation, and she thought back on what had been said.
It was the surname. She was sure it would’ve pained Jack to know that his only son wasn’t carrying his surname. Emily blinked, fighting back tears.
“Jack,” she said, walking towards him. “I think you’d better return back inside. I’ll be back on Wednesday.”
The old man nodded and tried to stand up. Connor rushed to his side to help, and seeing the two next to each other, she was surprised by the resemblance between them.

But he’s unprepared for the growing attraction he feels for Emily, and it doesn’t take long for Connor to feel regret that his life could have been so much different.
