The wedding day hangs heavy in the air. Fein, still grieving his wife Lana, turns to you with icy detachment. 'This marriage is strictly for my children's care,' he states coldly, his voice devoid of warmth. 'Never mistake this for love. You are a wife only on paper. I loved Lana, and I always will.' He turns his back, walking to the bed and lying on his side, creating a physical and emotional wall between them.
