His love

Love had made Skyler the epitome of beauty. 

Skyler was beautiful in Zayn’s heart because he loved her so much. 

“Zayn, thank you.” Skyler snuggled contentedly in Zayn’s embrace. 

Willow didn’t want to see them showing off their affection. After confirming the contract signing and filming schedule with Thane, she turned and left. 

Actually, Thane wanted to sign the contract with Willow Immediately. 

But he needed to adjust some contract details as she wasn’t a well–known actress. He could only schedule the contract signing for the next day. 

Skyler knew she couldn’t win this endorsement by arguing with Thane. Only Zayn could help her, but he showed no interest in intervening further. 

Since Skyler did not want to appear too opportunistic, she decided to snatch the endorsement herself. 

A brand emphasizing a positive image would never choose a spokesperson with a tarnished reputation. If the world knew about Willow’s dirty secrets, Thane wouldn’t risk using her. 

With that thought in mind, a sinister smile tugged at the corners of Skyler’s lips. She wanted Willow to be 

completely ruined before she even became famous. 

Willow was deeply concerned about Kenan’s condition. Although she had interacted with Quintus a few 

times, she didn’t have his phone number to contact him. 

She knew Quintus would let her see Kenan in the hospital room. However, the bodyguards were stationed at the hospital entrance and the underground‘ parking lot. It made it impossible for her to go directly to the hospital room. 

After leaving Dawson Group’s building. Willow bought Nicola’s favorite daisies and visited her grave. 

Willow couldn’t find Nicola’s body. Hence, she had to bury her bloodstained boots just like she buried 

Aaron’s clothes 

Nicola had no relatives in Havenpoint except her grandmother, who had been sent abroad by Silas. Thus, her funeral was simple. 

Today was Nicola’s 22nd birthday. They had promised to celebrate each other’s birthdays every year. This year was no exception. 

Nicola’s grave was next to Aaron’s. The plot was meant for Willow herself, but in the end, Nicola rested there. 

Willow bought another plot next to Nicola’s, hoping to be close after her death. Their three graves, positioned so close together, would unite them eternally. 

Nicola’s photo on the gravestone showed her radiant smile, like the most beautiful spring flower. Yet, 

such a wonderful girl perished in despair and silence. 

“Nicola, I’m sorry. I still haven’t avenged you. Your murder charge has been cleared, but Sylvia found a scapegoat. She’s unscathed for now. 

“Nicola, I wish I could live longer to plan and avenge you, Aaron, and Grandma. Be happy down there. Don’t shed tears for scumbags anymore. 

“It’s not worth it. I won’t cry for scumbags anymore.” 

Willow placed the flowers in front of the grave. She reluctantly turned away and walked toward the 

cemetery exit.

The chilly wind made her instinctively pull her clothes tighter around her, trying to ward off the cold. Then, four burly men appeared before her. 

She recognized them immediately. It was them who drove Nicola to suicide.
