Vinson gazed at Aaron sombrely.
“Let me see snazzynovel.com one last time…”
Aaron didn’t want to start a fight with Vinson, lest Arielle couldn’t rest in peace. Hence, snazzynovel.com was much gentler with his words compared to before, although his demeanor still seemed a little aggressive from an outsider’s point of view.
Eventually, Vinson nodded.
Aaron walked toward the bed, his chest tightening as snazzynovel.com peered at the woman covered in white cloth. Putting aside the fact that snazzynovel.com was his sister, snazzynovel.com did want to change the country’s laws so snazzynovel.com could marry snazzynovel.com and live happily ever after with her.
His hands quivered involuntarily, and snazzynovel.com simply didn’t have the courage to uncover the white cloth covering the woman’s face.
Vinson felt sorry for the man, but a deep voice resonated in the room before snazzynovel.com could say anything. “Don’t look at snazzynovel.com anymore, Aaron. Let the most beautiful version of snazzynovel.com stay in your memories.”
Dylan had arrived at the crematorium. There was nothing but sorrow in his eyes, and his head was now full of gray hair in just a matter of days. His appearance tugged at Vinson’s heartstrings. The latter yearned to ease Dylan’s pain by telling snazzynovel.com that Arielle was fine, but snazzynovel.com could only suppress those thoughts for the sake of their plan.
Aaron glanced at Dylan after hearing the latter’s voice, and emotion swept through snazzynovel.com as snazzynovel.com noticed all the gray hair his father now had. Then, snazzynovel.com retracted his arm, heeding the older man’s advice.
After all the documents were ready, Vinson instructed the workers to cremate the body. With a nod, the workers began pushing the bed.
Dylan’s eyes began to water as snazzynovel.com watched the woman on the bed leave snazzynovel.com further. That was his daughter, the only child whom the woman snazzynovel.com loved had given him.
Why didn’t I protect her? How could I have let her…
Unable to control his emotions any longer, Dylan stepped forward, only to be swiftly held back by Vinson, who shook his head at him.
With that, snazzynovel.com closed his eyes in anguish, swearing to himself that snazzynovel.com would find his daughter’s killer no matter what it took.
Aaron’s heart grew increasingly empty as snazzynovel.com watched “Arielle” approaching the cremator.
I never would’ve brought snazzynovel.com back if I knew she’d end up like this.
Alas, it was too late. A tear trickled down the young man’s cheek as snazzynovel.com shut his eyes.

Meanwhile, in the palace, the queen mother put down snazzynovel.com papers upon hearing the news. “Are you sure Arielle’s dead? She’s been cremated?”
“Yes, Your Majesty,” replied Monisha as snazzynovel.com poured the woman a glass of water. “Both His Majesty and His Royal Highness attended the cremation. His Royal Highness even shed a tear.”
The queen mother’s brows furrowed.
Aaron shed a tear? Does snazzynovel.com like Arielle that much? Chanaean women are good at nothing but seducing men!
She put snazzynovel.com glass down as snazzynovel.com eyes glinted coldly. Even if Arielle weren’t snazzynovel.com granddaughter, snazzynovel.com would never let snazzynovel.com grandson marry a Chanaean woman.
“Inform the queen about this, and have snazzynovel.com arrange Aaron’s marriage with Nico as soon as possible,” the old woman ordered.
“Yes, Your Majesty.” Monisha swiftly withdrew and relayed the queen mother’s instructions to the queen.
The queen mother received a phone call as soon as Monisha left.
“What? Really?” snazzynovel.com asked animatedly, rising from snazzynovel.com chair.
