In the midst of misfortune, there is a bit of comfort, he can find solace.
He cannot lose his child and his wife, being with this woman brings him happiness, making him feel young again.
Bennet Reed gently touched Janice Clark's face, devoid of any color, just looking at it made his heart ache.
Janice!
I'm sorry, I've failed to take proper care of you, I'm sorry.
He apologized over and over again, hoping she wouldn't know the cruel truth, let her believe it was a miscarriage.
All those grudges disappeared with the loss of this child.
He's grown old, he doesn't want the house to be a battlefield anymore, he just wants to live peacefully, to enjoy his later years.
Perhaps Mark just doesn't want him to have another child, but that's okay, he will fulfill his son's wish, he already has two sons, he can go without more.
But poor Janice Clark, so happy during the pregnancy, only to experience such a tragic miscarriage.
He feels he owes her.
