    Matthew tried tofort Aaron repeatedly. He said, “Aaron, you need to grow up quickly and be a strong and upright man. We’ll protect your mom together.


    “Aaron, your mom and I both love you very much.<b>”</b>


    But the past became a tragedy. Matthew didn’t get to see Aaron grow up, nor did he properly protect Aaron’s mom.This is from N?velDrama.Org.


    He said he loved Aaron. But now, he cruelly ordered Aaron’s <b>grave </b>to be destroyed, denying him peace even in death.


    “Matthew, you will regret this!”


    Willow gritted her teeth as she fought to pull herself up from the dirt. Whether it was the searing pain or


    the burning rage, she couldn’t tell, but her body quivered uncontrobly.


    Several times, she almost crumpled back to the ground, but sheer willpower kept her standing tall.


    “Matthew, you said Aaron and I meant more to you than anything in this world. We’re not just family, we’re closer than family. But you destroyed Aaron’s grave and pushed me to the edge time and again!


    “Matthew, I hate you, but damn if I don’t feel sorry for you. You’ve gone and forgotten all about us. No matter how you treat us now, you might be feeling all high and mighty.


    “But what about when realityes crashing back? I hope you’ll be just as satisfied then as you are now! Matthew, I’ll never forgive you, and neither will Aaron!

    Because by then, Aaron would be gone, and she… well, she wouldn’t be around either.


    Sometimes, she longed for Matthew to remember their past. But now, she secretly hoped he’d stay oblivious for the rest of his life. Even though she despised the demon inhabiting his body, she still cared deeply for Matthew, who had been her rock.


    She feared the day he’d recall, knowing he’d be faced with a harsh reality where <b>his </b>loved ones were gone. It would tear him apart.

    “I ain’t got no regrets! The only thing I regret is ever thinking about keeping a snake like you around and giving you a chance to hurt Wi! Willow, if I had known you’d hurt Wi like this, I would’ve killed you moment you came into my sight!”


    “Willow, you better be thankful!” Skyler’s words always added fuel to the fire. “You killed Wi’s child, and now Mr. Mayer has only destroyed your child’s grave. You should be grateful!”


    “Skyler<b>, </b>shut your damn mouth!”

    Willow’s hatred boiled over, simmering like a pot ready to explode. If she had a bottle of acid in her grasp, she’d have hurled it at Skyler’s face without a second thought, unveiling her true, hideous nature for all to


    <b>see</b>.


    Skyler didn’t immediately respond. Instead, she shot a cunning nce at Willow’s tightly clenched fist. In Willow’s gripy a piece of Aaron’s bloodstained shirt and a button from <b>Nic’s </b>shoe.


    Skyler aimed to obliterate everyst shred of Willow’s remaining sce.


    Skyler turned to Matthew, her tone dripping with feigned kindness. “Mr. Mayer, Willow’s still clinging to keepsakes of her son and Nic, Perhaps you should let her hold onto those, a final token of


    remembrance.”


    Hearing Skyler’s words, Matthew’s gaze cut to Willow’s hand like a knife.
