It was clear to me now, the only way I could truly be at peace with everything that was currently happening was either by dying or getting rid of Amelie Lodge completely. As long as she remained in the same realm of existence with Liam, he was going to keep chasing after her. It didn't matter where she runs off to, Liam would somehow figure it out, and everything will return to square one once again.
Amelie was like a pest, a parasite presence in our lives. Her name came up in conversations I've ever had with my husband, her picture occasionally surfaced in old photo albums. Each mention of her felt like a thorn, pricking at the edges of my patience. Becoming a third wheel in my own marriage was just beyond any type of pain I've ever experienced before.
