Chapter: 780
The arrogance he once possessed had dissipated, replaced by overwhelming anxiety. He feared that
speaking another word might result in the police taking him away. His lips remained tightly sealed.
Witnessing Darian’s refusal to help, Jasper felt a profound sense of disappointment engulf him.
He recognized their relationship for what it truly was – a transaction built solely on self-interest, devoid
of any genuine family affection.
He should have realized long ago that Darian was nothing more than a profit-driven businessman,
incapable of fostering a true bond between himself and his son.
Jasper’s glare pierced Darian, accompanied by scolding words, “Didn’t you proclaim yourself as the
master of the Anderson family? Weren’t you the one who claimed to be a father? Why don’t you save
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtmy mother and me? What kind of a human being are you?”
Even in the face of Jasper’s reproach, Darian remained silent, withdrawing into himself. He hunched
his shoulders, avoiding any glimpse of Jasper or Sharon.
It wasn’t until the police escorted them away, their car slowly fading into the distance, that Darian
couldn’t hear Jasper’s verbal assault anymore. He finally exhaled, relieved to have escaped.
However, as he lifted his head, his eyes met Theodore’s meaningful smile.
Fear coursed through Darian’s veins, instinctively knowing that Theodore wouldn’t let him off so easily.
Just as he mustered the courage to speak up and inquire, Theodore shifted his gaze elsewhere,
diverting his attention.
“The ceremony goes on.”
The priest nodded and commenced the burial of the coffin.
After the ceremony concluded, Theodore bid farewell to the guests, and the guards whisked Darian
away to a secret place.
Now, amidst the silence of the cemetery, only Theodore and Ariana remained.
Standing before the tombstone, they fixated on a photograph of a youthful, resplendent woman, an
extended silence enveloping them.
Aimee’s eyes, shimmering Like summer blooms, captivated Ariana as she ‘looked at the photo.
She couldn’t help but notice Theodore’s resemblance to Aimee, particularly his striking eyebrows and
eyes that mirrored hers.
A wave of sadness washed over Ariana as she sensed Theodore’s sorrow.
At that moment, a torrent of thoughts flooded her mind.
Theodore grasped her hand firmly and directed his words toward the tombstone, “Mother, this is my
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmbeloved wife, my cherished love. She is truly exceptional, and my love for her knows no bounds.”
Although Theodore had expressed his love for her before, this declaration resonated with Ariana more
deeply than ever.
She tenderly held Theodore’s hand and touched the image on the tombstone.
Ariana’s voice quivered, her eyes gleaming with determination. “I vow to stand by his side until death
do us part.”
Their voices dissipated into the breeze, leaving behind a serene atmosphere.
After a while, Ariana asked softly, “Was she imprisoned in that cage at the manor in the southern
suburbs?”
That cage scared her. She could still recall the panic and despair that overwhelmed her upon seeing it.
She couldn’t imagine the fear and anguish Aimee had endured during her decade-long captivity.
