Sophie experienced an eerie sense of deja vu as the group gathered to approach Jude at the shores where he was diligently checking his traps for fish. The familiar setting stirred memories of the past, reminiscent of the time when the twelve women had come together to make a life-altering decision to marry him.
As they all lined up on the sandy shore, the sound of crashing waves served as a backdrop to the weighty conversation that was about to unfold. Jude turned towards them, his expression a mix of curiosity and apprehension, as he sensed the gravity of the moment.
