Henry was on his way to meet his fiancée’s parents when an incident on the bus changed his plans. He stopped a teenage boy from stealing an elderly woman’s wallet, missing his stop in the process. The grateful woman, named Agnes, warned him cryptically, “If you go there, a funeral is inevitable. Never tell her father your real last name.”

At Emily’s parents’ house, Henry lied about his last name, following Agnes’s advice. Charles, Emily’s father, grew suspicious and eventually revealed he knew Henry’s true surname—Blackwood, associated with a dark past involving a hit-and-run by Henry’s uncle. Charles was furious, and Emily felt betrayed, needing time to think.

Days later, Henry explained his reasons for hiding his last name. “I didn’t want my family’s past to affect our future,” he told Emily. With Agnes’s guidance, Henry sought forgiveness from those wronged by his family. His sincerity gradually earned their trust.

Emily saw Henry’s efforts and gave their relationship another chance. Together, they worked to build a future free from the shadows of their past, proving that love and honesty could heal old wounds.
