“Dordrich, I'm sorry for what Danner did to your family. He confessed to me that he did it all out of jealousy, he knew about you and me. He thought to scare you off, to distract you from me so that I would get lonely and come back to him,” I whisper remorsefully. “It could have gone so wrong. I would never forgive myself if something happened to the kids.”
“He also used amnesia to keep me with him like that. All those media photos were published at his request," I continue with a sigh.
We are in each other's arms, Dordrich strokes my hair thoughtlessly. Fear holds me in its grip, I imagine Dordrich taking this seriously and breaking off relations with me. Ultimately, Elena is his wife and I now threaten the peace of his family.
