    In fact, if Anne had insisted, Anthony could not do


    anything either.


    After all, there were still three kids.


    Anne stayed in her office but could not focus on her work.


    Her mind was nk.


    When she regained her senses, it was already the


    afternoon.


    She did not have any appetite, but she opened her office


    door and left.


    “Ms. Vallois, are you going for lunch?” Ken greeted her.


    As though Anne did not hear it, she walked right past him.


    Ken sensed that something was not right. Could it be rted to Cindy’s death?


    Anne took a cab to the graveyard.


    She kneeled before Nigel and Sarah’s tombstones and cried loudly.


    She suddenly could not find the direction to live.


    Not sure why, but the thought was particrly strong in


    her mind.


    She could not do anything well enough. She could not provide for her children, her parents were


    murdered, and the murderer was walking free right in front of her, but she could not do anything…


    What was the purpose for her to live?


    “Dad, Mom, please tell me… How should I live? I have nothing! I only have myself. If I died… I would


    not feel the pain anymore…” Anne cried helplessly.


    She cried and cried until she waspletely drained and tumbled upon the tombstone.


    She felt as though it was the end for her.


    She could not see the light at the end of the tunnel.


    Back when she was a kid. She could feel a slight warmth as though she was by her parents’ side.


    She was still a kid.

    Her peers were all coddled in their parent’sps, but her life was already so broken beyond repair.


    “Anne? Anne, wake up, Anne…”


    Anne opened her eyes and saw Lucas’ worried face in her weak vision. “Mr. Newman…”


    “Why are you sleeping here?” Lucas asked her.


    Anne was stunned, as though she did not know why she was there.


    After a few seconds, she recalled, “I am here to see Mom


    and Dad…”


    “Don’t sit on the ground. I will bring you back home.” Lucas helped her up, and his voice was as gentle


    as his


    gesture.


    Despite this, Anne still hissed in pain. “Ah…”


    “What happened?” Lucas let loose of her arm and then rolled her sleeve up. He saw a long and deep


    wound on her fair skin. There were still blood stains around it.


    What happened?”


    Anne withdrew her arm and hid it under her sleeve again, “I tripped this morning.”


    “Why didn’t you get it treated at the hospital?”


    Anne was silent.


    “I will bring you to the hospital.” Lucas dragged her away.


    At the hospital, the doctor helped her to treat the wound and wrapped it in a bandage. The doctor said


    there was not a big problem as long as she kept the wound away from water.


    Lucas then held her hand and walked her out of the


    hospital, almost as though he was afraid that someone bad would bring her away.


    “Why did you go to the graveyard?” Anne asked.


    “I called you, but you did not pick up. I went to your office, but you were not there either. So I tried my


    luck here. I did not expect you to be here.” Lucas looked at her pale face worriedly. He was certain thatThis is property ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    something major had happened to her.


    However, he did not ask.


    If Anne wanted to tell him, she would have.
