As his voice fell, the woman in his arms gave no response.
He looked down to see she had already closed her eyes and fallen steadily asleep.
Watching her tranquil sleeping face, a hint of gentleness appeared on the man's handsome face.
...
The next day.
Drizzling rain fell continuously, in a cemetery in Narsus City.
Summer Shawcross, dressed in a black dress, stood silently in front of the tombstone.
Beside her, Noah Drexler, also dressed in a black suit, stood holding a black umbrella, shielding her from the rain.
And behind them, Sean Morgan and the bodyguards, all clad in black suits, stood at attention.
Looking at the young man's gentle face on the tombstone, Summer Shawcross let out a soft sigh.
"I'm sorry, brother." With that, she bent down and placed a bouquet of Sean Shawcross's favorite sunflowers in front of the tombstone.
If I had another chance, she would do everything to save him.
But unfortunately... there's no "if."
