Scars Of A Broken Bond by Calv Momose

Chapter: 489
In that poignant moment, the reality of her father’s death truly sank in, as did the realization that she would never see him again.
After being adopted by the Blakely family, she often went to visit the house in which she and her father used to live. The familiar
place became a sanctuary for Sabrina-a space to remember, heal, and treasure the precious bond she once shared with her
father.
The house was eventually demolished. But Sabrina kept a collection of her father’s personal belongings as cherished keepsakes
in the storage room.
Each item in the room carried memories of her beloved father, evoking feelings of both sadness and fondness.
There were some of his favorite books and notebooks, often used for drafting news articles.
One item that held sentimental value was a worn metal lighter. Every night, as her father worked on his news stories, he would
use it to light a cigarette.
A classic camera also rested among the possessions, a faithful companion on her father’s fieldwork, capturing moments of
significance.
Amid the magazines and newspapers, Sabrina discovered her father’s news manuscripts.
Among them, the most renowned was the follow-up report on a food additive case. Sabrina had read and reread the original
manuscript countless times.
Sabrina even compared the published final drafts to the original manuscripts, contemplating the subtle modifications he had
made to individual words and sentences.
The storage room also housed boxes of negatives and albums containing photographs related to her father’s unfinished news
reports.
His neat handwriting adorned the pages, reflecting a meticulous approach to his work.
As Sabrina opened one of her father’s notebooks, she stumbled upon the beginnings of a news story.

The story focused on a kidnapping case and featured an intriguing photo taken from a unique angle. The image seemed to hold
a secretive connection to the investigation.
Regrettably, his life was cut short before he could finish the manuscript due to a tragic car accident. Amidst the overwhelming
grief, Sabrina found it difficult to concentrate on the fate of the hostage and whether they were ultimately rescued.
As sorrow weighed heavily on her heart, Sabrina tenderly closed the notebook, taking care to organize the rest of her father’s
belongings.
She then directed the wheelchair to the staircase and called out for Tyrone.
As Sabrina sat in silence, Tyrone arrived promptly and discreetly studied her face but found no trace of tears. In a gentle tone, he
asked, “Have you finished?”
“Yes.”
Tyrone gently lifted Sabrina from the wheelchair and carefully descended the stairs. Once they reached the master bedroom, he
gently laid her on the bed.
Sabrina inquired, “You haven’t been to the company lately. Is everything alright there?”
“Everything’s fine. I want to spend more time with you.”
Sabrina remained silent.
“I bought several books,” he said with a hint of enthusiasm.
