The ending was pure FICTION and a Regression of Elijah's character. The words were flat and fake. As a reader, I did not believe any of it. It just reeked of bad writing and the author's inability to bring about a believable reunion of the two. My comments are Harsh but true.
Lets say Elijah married at 28 , then she had a miscarriage and scientifically if I am not wrong it's not safe to conceive until 2-3 years after that she got preggi and then 6 years later she comes back that adds upto around 37-38, at this age nearly 40 I would rather she be mature and go to celibacy than go to that toxic piece of shít.
That was crinnge like ewwww. I would have loved a more mature ending. She said that Raymond was the light of her life. This definitely means she's has gone blind.
