the end

Well here's how it ended just in case anyone was wondering. Ellen goes back to Europe but doesn't go back to her husband. Newland and May stay together, and eventually have several children. Many years later, after May has passed, one of Newland's sons Dallas goes to Europe and asks Newland to go with him they go and Dallas says that, before May died she asked him to go see her cousin Ellen. So Dallas and Newland go to her house but Newland is too scared to go in because he feels like his part in her life is over, so he sits outside and visualizes Dallas talking to Ellen then goes back to his hotel. Also at the end of the book, Dallas has just became engaged to Fanny Beaufort who is rumored to be the illegitimate son of Beaufort. However New York is finally changing and people don't seem to care as much about people's past and instead try to move on. Fanny is a good, nice woman, and Dallas even says to his father that they actually talk, implying how May and Newland were married but very separate.
