She wanted this.
Niamh smiled in secret. She parted her lips slowly, “Ken—”
“Niamh!”
Before Niamh could finish, she heard Ava calling her name.
She turned around and saw Ava running over along with Daniel.
Why were they here?
“These two are so annoying.” Niamh deliberately complained about them.
Ava ran over to Niamh and started taking breaths. “Niamh, I don’t know what happened to you, but you must have lost your memory. If not, why would you still want to stay with this piece of trash?”
She pointed at Kendrick and said that sentence through gritted teeth.
“If you’ve lost your memory and forgotten everything, I can tell you just how despicable and cruel this piece of trash is!
“In order to make Nevaeh happy, he humiliated and tarnished your reputation repeatedly. He hurt you so badly that you were bruised all over! He even suspected your innocence and denied that you gave birth to his child. He kept saying that child was a b*stard child and even killed it with his own hands!
“Niamh, you can’t repeat the same mistakes again! Please, I’m begging you, don’t stay with him. Come with me!”
Ava’s eyes were red after she said that.
However, her words were like knives that sliced across Niamh’s heart—it was so excruciatingly painful.
‘Ava, I didn’t forget.
‘That’s why I’m back for revenge. This is for me, but also mostly for the child.’
When Ava noticed how Niamh had not spoken a word even after a long time, she ran over and grabbed her hand emotionally. “Niamh, please, come with us. Dan is the person who truly loves and cares about you. Stop getting fooled by that piece of trash!”
“Stop talking.” Niamh interrupted her suddenly. “I’ve told you many times that I’m not Niamh Delgado. Plus, why can’t I stay with Mr. Waldburg? What do his past actions have to do with me? I just know that I’m happy being with him. I enjoy being with him too. So please, stop harassing me!”
Niamh finished saying that in an icy tone. Then, she pushed Ava’s hand away from her.
She turned around and grabbed Kendrick’s arm, pretending to look intimate with him. “Kendrick, let’s talk somewhere else. These people are so annoying.”
“Alright.” Kendrick gave her a one-word reply emotionlessly. He was not bothered by Niamh’s hand on his arm.
Before he turned around, he glared at Ava solemnly, her words still lingering in his ears.
Hiss.
It was a pain that felt like a million ants gnawing at his heart. It even drowned his breathing.
Ava had declared how cold-blooded and cruel he was to Niamh as she recounted all of the horrible things he did to her back then.
Niamh sat in the passenger seat, and from the corner of her eyes, she could see that Kendrick had a weird expression on his face.
She figured that he was affected by what Ava had said just now.
She smirked in secret. ‘How’s that, Kendrick? Are you feeling remorseful? Or have you finally found your conscience?
‘However, when were you ever conscientious when you were with me?
‘If you had even an ounce of pity for me back then, I wouldn’t have died such a horrible death!’
The evening mist hung lowly at dusk during fall.
Niamh stepped on the slabs and slowly made her way to the tombstone.
She had a bouquet of white chrysanthemums in her hand and placed it in front of the tombstone. Then, she bowed.
“Grandpa,” she called out softly as she looked at the name on the tombstone.
“Eveline is here to see you.”
She smiled, but her eyes were already filled with tears.
“I know you won’t agree with what I’m doing right now, but I can’t endure what he did to me and the child back then.
“He’s biting the bait now. I’ll make him fall in love with me, and then I’ll let him have a taste of what it feels like to be fooled and humiliated by the person he loves.
“I’ll also make the person who harmed you back then pay a horrible price.”
Niamh narrowed her eyes and there was a piercing glint in them.
She lit up some candles and sat down in the empty cemetery.
The sky in fall was slowly turning dark. However, at this moment, she only wanted to stay with her grandfather who used to love her so much.
Kendrick had not planned on coming to the cemetery today, but Ava’s words lingered in his head for a very long time.
He knew remorse and apologies would not be enough, so he decided to come here to seek some form of comfort.
He was still holding the meaningful bouquet with 88 roses. After he placed it down, he caressed the name on the tombstone out of habit. He imagined that he could be closer to her like this.
However, it was just coldness under his fingertips. He was touching an icy tombstone and not a body of flesh.
Kendrick turned around and wanted to find a place to sit down so he could accompany the person who was sleeping here. However, when he lifted his head, he saw a white figure walking past one of the plots. That figure was petite and lithe, looking just like her.
There was a thin layer of mist during dusk, so Kendrick could not see the woman’s face. However, his heart started accelerating.
“Niamh…”
He blurted out her name and turned around quickly. Then, he ran in the direction of Len’s grave.
‘Ava, I didn’t forget.
‘That’s why I’m back for revenge. This is for me, but also mostly for the child.’
