Annabelle realized her mind was still quite clear. It seemed that after being around Kendrick for so long, even her thought process had started to resemble his.

But when would he wake up…

There were still so many tangled things ahead waiting for her—who could she turn to for guidance? Who would truly stand in her shoes, think for her, and give her honest advice?

Just then, their food was served. Annabelle stopped overthinking, picked up her chopsticks, and was ready to eat.

"Wait," Marvin said as he took the chopsticks from her hand.

Annabelle looked at him, puzzled. He pulled out a napkin and wiped her chopsticks carefully before handing them back. “Alright.”

It reminded her of Kendrick again. She hadn't expected the two brothers to be alike in this way too.

She couldn’t help but wish it were Kendrick sitting acros

Although he hadn't had any scandals in the past year, and it was said that he had found true love and settled down, Colten didn't believe that this guy could change so easily in just one year.Even if there was a chance for him to change, Colten still didn't want Sylvia to take the risk. But then he thought, was his concern a bit excessive? It had been over twenty years since Lily passed away, and he was just Sylvia's former brother-in-law. Even if Lily were still alive, he was still an outsider and shouldn't interfere with her private life.Moreover, how could he be sure that Eric wouldn't remain faithful to Sylvia from now on? Sylvia herself didn't care about the past, so wasn't his worry just meddling? Yet, if he noticed something wrong and didn't remind her, wouldn't he be h

    "When did you arrive?" Sylvia stared at his eyes, her voice tense."Just came up," Colten said calmly, walking up to Lily’s tombstone. "I originally planned to come tomorrow, but the old lady was worried about you being alone on the mountain, so she asked me to come get you."Her gaze relaxed, as if the danger had passed. She shifted her eyes away and said, "What could possibly happen in broad daylight? My mom just worries too much."Colten quietly stood in front of the tombstone, staring at Lily’s photo.Though his eyes were fixed on it, it seemed like he wasn’t really seeing anything. His mind was filled with a swirl of emotions.The sadness or nostalgia he had expected to feel at this moment was replaced by a tangle of questions.Sylvia had automatically moved two meters behind him, as if she didn’t want to stand together at the tombstone.Was she feeling guilty towards her sister?Colten wanted to ask, but he stopped himself again.He closed his eyes for a moment and then said to

    In the kitchen, Colten was helping his mother-in-law with some prep work.As he watched the elderly lady add salt to the eggs she had just beaten, he turned his head, only to see her reaching for the salt jar again."Mom, you’ve already added salt," he said.The elderly lady froze for a moment and then smiled helplessly, "Look at my memory."Colten observed her expression and asked with a smile, "What's wrong today? You seem a bit distracted."She sighed and sat down in a nearby chair. "It’s all because of Kendrick’s aunt!"Colten sat next to her, picking up some greens from the table to help prepare. "What happened with Sylvia?"She glanced at him, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Did she tell you about her divorce?"He shook his head. "She didn’t say anything, but I heard it from Scarlett.""Do you know why she divorced?"Colten shook his head again. "No, Scarlett didn’t mention it, and I didn’t ask."The elderly lady nodded and thought for a moment before she began to expla
