QUOTE : Through it all he was haunted by only one thing. His daughter. Not having had final words with her. Not being able to watch her prosper as an adult. It tore him up to think that he would never see or speak to her again. Guilt overtook him as he acknowledged that he had squandered the past several months as Maddie’s father trying to save a woman who didn’t want to be saved. In the darkest hours before dawn, hot tears of regret had rolled down his cheeks.
