please don't hurt him

When you love someone, take care of that relationship with all your heart. You may never have a second chance. This sentence gives the ending an answer. Between the memory and the novel, there are two things that have a profound impact on me: 1. In the novel, the male protagonist's daughter was tortured in various ways, and finally was brutally murdered, and wrote about Edward's inner feelings after knowing Susan's abortion. The accusation against the murderer at the end of the novel is actually telling Susan, I want to know if she (unborn daughter) is in pain, what was she thinking at the time! 2. What Susan's mother said finally became reality. Susan became like her own mother. The reason why she liked Edward at the beginning also became the reason for leaving him! Susan also cruelly left Edward. Just like the death of the hero in the novel, Susan did not wait for Edward in the end. After Edward gave her the sunshine of hope, he also gave her an ice-cold abyss to repay Susan for her past actions.
