As she watched, Aria’s eyes gradually became red, and she slowly squatted down on the ground.
The staff noticed her emotions and softly asked, “Miss, what’s wrong? Did your wish not come true?”
Aria’s voice choked up. “Yeah, none of them were fulfilled.”
The staff reassured her, “It’s okay, you could have attended our farewell ceremony, and heaven would have compensated for these regrets in another
way.
He pointed to the scene of the ceremony, where a small tower woven with paper stood in the center.
People put their belongings or envelopes into the window of the small tower.
When it was Aria’s turn, she took a deep breath and put the wish bag containing the wedding ring and wish list into the small tower.
The next second, the staff raised a torch and threw it into the small tower.
The flames ignited, and the heat wave hit the face.
Aria looked at the leaping flame, and all the past desires and wishes turned into smoke, gradually dissipating.
Chapter 7
The night fell gradually.
When Aria returned home, the villa was unexpectedly brightly fic.
She walked in and heard a sodt laughter of a girl
Nora, sitting side by side with Lucas, saw her and gave a typical smile: “Ria, you’re back! My new film started shooting today, and the location is nearby I’m not used to staying in hotels, so Laces offered me to stay at his place. You don’t mind, do you?”
“Home? This place was never really her home.
Nora filled the living room with scattered things, filling up the once marital home she shared with Locas.
Aria hesitated and opened her mouth, but before she could speal, Lucas cut in, “She won’t.”
She withdrew her mouth, tagged at her lips and smiled: “Hmm, just stay wherever.”
Anyway, it didn’t matter anymore.
“You don’t mind, that’s good. Ria, you haven’t had dinner yet, join us.” Nora smoothly assumed the role of a hostess.
Aria glanced at the table full of spicy dishes with a strong flavor, her smile at the corner of her mouth becoming even more ironic
She had a stomach problem and couldn’t eat anything spicy. Despite being married for so many years, Lucas really never noticed.
“I didn’t eat, you guys can
She choked back her words and turned to walk upstairs.
Lucas looked at Aria’s slender figure, his calm black eyes sank, showing no emotions.
Aria returned to her room and just as she lay down on the bed, her phone in her pocket rang. She opened it and saw Nora’s recently updated Facebook
status
Took several pictures of the villas.
Swing and gardenia flowers, it turns out that our promised home has always been there, touching Love.jpg
Aria’s heart trembled, and her breathing became labored.
Those things that used to linger in my mind, which I couldn’t figure out no matter what, finally have answers at this moment.
Why, despite the mismatch between the fairy tale–like wallpaper and the originally cold and minimalist style of the villa, Lucas was
unwilling to replace
Why, she just curiously sat on the swing for a moment, and Lucas flew into a rage, not allowing her to step into that area again.
Why, throughout the year, there would always be fresh gardenias in the vase in the living room.
Originally, this marital home was prepared for Nora from beginning to end.
The heart, which had long been numb, still ached like a needle prick at this moment.
Aris turned off her phone and looked at her own pale face on the screen. Suddenly, she chuckled lightly and tears silently dripped down.
Long ago, she wiped away the tears from her face and a hint of a strong smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
Well, whether it’s Lucas or this house, it’s time for both of them to return to their rightful owners:
After taking a deep breath, Aria went to the study and printed two coples of the documents.
One was a divorce agreement, and she did not hesitate to sign her own name.
One is a farewell letter.
The content of the Larewell letter was very simple, consisting of just a few simple sentences,
I am Aria, and after I died, I did not become a ghost of the Bennett family, nor did enter the grave of the Blake family.
Having done all this, she put two documents into an exquisite box.
Just as I was about to return to the bedroom, I heard Lucas talking on the phone with someone through the partially closed door of the next room.
Chapter 7
“Psychological therapy? Lucas, did the Bennett family really plan to send Aria to Ashford Chapel for some peaceful retreat?”
“Yeah, Aria loved you so obsessively, it really seemed like she was sick, indeed needed some purification for her soul.”
Once labeled as mentally ill, your family would definitely fully support your in divorcing Aria, Laicas, You would finally be able to get rid of her. Congratulations in advance on you and Nora reconciling and finding happiness together!
Chapter Eight
Lucas did not reply in a timely manner, he just tugged at his rie, and an inexplicable wave of restlessness arose.
Suddenly, I caught a glimpse and looked towards the hallway at the entrance.
When Aria met my gaze, my chest inexplicably tightened, and I unexpectedly hang up the phone
He looked at Aria and said impatiently, “What were ye
were you eavesdropping on again?”
Aria remained calm and said, “I didn’t listen. The things on the phone, weren’t you also planning to find an opportunity to tell me?
As soon as the words were spoken, the air seemed to fall into a dead silence.
Lucas pursed his thin lips, hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke, “The mindfulness class at Ashford Chapel is very beneficial. It can guide people to face their inner selves, correct distorted perceptions, and dispel the darkness within. I will take you there tomorrow.”
Aria didn’t expect that the love she had been holding onto for years became a twisted proof in their eyes.
For a long time, she tugged at her lips and whispered, “Okay.”
In the past few days, she would rather go to a place without them, rather than staying in this home that doesn’t belong to her
Lucas had already prepared herself to make a big scene, but upon hearing the calm “good,” she was momentarily stunned.
Watching Aria’s departing figure, he instinctively spoke, “Where are you going?”
“Pack up, weren’t we supposed to go to Ashford Chapel tomorrow?
After Aria finished speaking, she didn’t look at Lucas again and quickly turned around to return to her own room.
The next day
Ana carried the box downstairs.
In the villa, her traces have been completely cleared out, leaving only this cardboard box filled with her belongings.
When Lucas saw the cardboard box, his eyes flickered and his lips parted, as if he wanted t
holding the box.
something However, Aria had already walked past him,
He paused for a moment, caught up with her, and whispered, “Stay calm, your birthday is the day after tomorrow, I will come to pick you up.”
