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 handso face.
...
The next day.
Drizzling rain fell continuously, in a cetery in Narsus City.
Sumr 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, Sumr 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."
She never imagined that even after living another life, hoping to make up for all regrets, her brother still left her...
After a long while, Noah Drexler glanced up at the gloomy weather, then suddenly reached out, wrapped an arm around her waist, and said softly.
"Let’s go."
Sumr Shawcross turned her head to look at him and spoke earnestly.
"Noah Drexler, I want you to promise sothing, here in front of my brother’s tombstone."
Hearing this, Noah Drexler furrowed his brows and stared at her for a few seconds before pursing his lips and speaking.
"Say it."
"You can’t send away again." She bit her lip and said.
She had no brother anymore... she didn’t want to leave him again.
As she finished speaking, Noah Drexler’s eyes flickered, and seeing her worried expression, his heart stirred...
The next mont, he swallowed and suddenly agreed.
"Alright!"
Seeing him agree, a hint of relief appeared on Sumr Shawcross’s face.
...
On the way back from the cetery, inside the car, Sumr Shawcross sat quietly in her seat, staring out the window at the street scenes, her expression indifferent, neither happy nor sad.
anwhile, Noah Drexler leaned against his seat, eyes narrowed, staring at her intently.
Though she appeared normal on the surface, he saw a worry in her eyes that had never been there before.
The woman who used to squeeze out a few tears and cried like a pear blossom in the rain whenever she acted spoiled with him, hadn’t had a big cry these days... it wasn’t normal.
Seeing Sumr Shawcross like this, he couldn’t help but frown, suddenly recalling the doctor’s previous words...
Just then, the phone rang inside the car.
Only then did Sumr Shawcross snap out of it, took out her phone, and glanced at it.
The call was from her agent.
She paused, then answered the call.
"Sumr, I’ve arranged the filming of that MV I ntioned to you before. When do you have ti to work in the coming days?"
Upon hearing the agent’s words, Sumr Shawcross paused.
"Sorry, Jessica, I think I recently..."
Just as she was about to decline, Jessica’s voice ca through the phone again.
"We’ve managed to schedule this famous director with great difficulty. If you break your appointnt, the company will have to compensate double!"
