An unusual feeling crept into Ste’s heart. She had always been sensitive to scents. Moreover, she
had been curious about the various fragrances emitted by nts since she was a child. This further
developed her passion for cultivating flowers and nts. She had even created potpourri sachets back
then. Now she realized where her unique hobbies might havee from.
“Why did Darcie take over the business instead of Trevor?” Ste asked, seeking rity.

“Well, Darcie was the co-founder of Enchanted. But, your mother was the one who created the
signature perfume that established thepany’s reputation in the industry. It’s called Secret Garden,”
Keegan exined.
“After Aunt Freesia passed away, your Uncle Daryl managed the business for a while, but he didn’t
know much about perfumes. So, he handed it back to Uncle Wenham after a couple of years.”
Wenham did not fullyprehend the world of fragrances either, but he wanted to keep histe wife’s
legacy, so he decided to assume control.
Darcie was well-versed in perfume-making and business management. She provided guidance to
Wenham when he first took charge of Enchanted. They spent a lot of time together as widows and
gradually developed feelings for each other.
Wenham married Darcie six years after the passing of his first wife.
The Hall family did not approve of this union, as Enchanted was Freesia’s life’s work. They were not
happy with the idea that her widowed husband and his second wife were managing it together.
Additionally, Wilfred had helped Darcie out when she was financially struggling during the early days of
establishing Enchanted. They treated her like family and felt betrayed now that she was involved with
theirte daughter’s husband not long after her death.
Since then, the Hall family started distancing themselves from Wenham. They would not have kept in
touch with the Saun family if it were not for their grandson, Trevor.
Ste remained silent for a while after listening to Keegan’s exnation.
“Actually, Uncle Wenham is a simple and honest man. He treated Aunt Freesia really well. He was in a
terrible state for the first two years after her death. He lost a lot of weight and suffered from anxiety.’
“But, that didn’t stop him from remarrying someone else! He moved on so easily,” said Ste.
Keegan was stunned to hearthat. “Have you ever considered the pain and loneliness of losing a loved
one? Some people choose to bear with it, while others choose to bury their past and start anew. You
can love more than one person in a lifetime, Ste. Uncle Wenham has more to live for.
“If I leave this earth before you, and the days of yearning be too painful, I want you to find
someone else. I want you to love and cherish him, ” he paused and added, “But not more than how
much you love me.”
Keegan’s words left Ste dumbfounded. ‘I wasn’t ming Uncle Wenham for moving on. I’m just
saying that he moved on too soon. I would never be able to move on that quickly,’ she thought.
Ste had imagined what would happen if Keegan died first, but she quickly brushed it aside. She
would tell herself that they were still young, and there was still a long journey ahead. Subconsciously,
she avoided the topic of death because she could not fathom what life would be like without Keegan. At
the same time, she did not want to envision him with someone new if she passed away first.
Ste often let her emotions control her first when it came to love. ‘Why does he want me to find
someone new when he’s gone? Doesn’t he love me anymore?’ she thought. Soon, she realized that
Keegan had said those words because he did not want her to feel alone after his death.
“What if I can’t control myself and end up loving him more?” Ste teased.
Hearing that, Keegan clenched the steering wheel and went deep in thought. He paused for a long time
before he said, “It’s fine… You’ll still be buried next to me when your timees, and we can be
together forever.”
