"Max, I can't seem to come to your wedding," said Veronica, who was talking to Maxime over the phone. She was in her room alone, looking uneasy because Maxime had asked her to come to Seattle for his wedding to Adriana. 'If I go, I'm afraid Zach will go too since he's getting better. I have to keep him from moving at all until Maxime and Adriana's wedding is done,' he thought.
"Veronica, you are my only older sister... It's my wedding but why don't you want to come. Don't you care about me as your only younger brother, I want you to be my companion, replacing our dead parents," said Maxime, sounding sad.
"Max… I don't like marriage….I will feel sad because the image of my failed marriage past will come back to haunt me and make me sad. Understood ... My mentality also needs to be taken care of," Veronica said angrily.
