Jared Hughes watched the car driving away, and the indifference that once filled his eyes disappeared instantly, leaving only a sense of heartache behind.
He unlocked his phone again. Betsy Russell's radiant smiling face filled the screen. After a few swipes, the birthday wishes Betsy had prepared for him appeared.
"I wish every success to my darling husband!"
Betsy's sweet voice came from the phone.
The melancholy in Jared Hughes' eyes slightly faded, and a faint smile curled up at the corners of his mouth as he started to browse other photos and videos in his phone.
His phone album and video gallery only featured Betsy.
When they were married, Betsy would often send him photos and videos. He rarely replied, but kept each and every photo and video stored in his phone.
When Bill Treiber hurriedly drove to the scene, he saw Mr. Hughes standing by the car, watching his phone intensely, his lips pressed tightly together.
