While fans are enjoying the chemistry between Carson and Mylchreest on the screens, they are also left weeping by the climax of the film. Despite being attracted to Anna, Jamie wants to keep his distance from her. Not only because he is afraid of commitments, but also because he is terminally ill and does not want to ruin Anna’s life. 

However, Jamie could not fight his feelings anymore, and he ultimately went on to get together with Anna.

At the end of the film, Anna faces a tough decision. She could either stay back in the U.K. or return to her home country. Finally, Carson’s character decides to stay. She and Jamie spend the night together, only for Anna to find Jamie lying unconscious the other morning. He has severe leukemia, and the condition could also kill him.
