Clang!
The urn had shattered.

Ashes were scattered all over the ground, a layer of gray white powder, accompanied by partially burned bone fragments.
“No!”
Lenora stood there, stunned as she watched everything unfold before her. Her vision was blurred by at misty haze, and tears uncontrollably welled up in her eyes, spilling down her checks. Accompanied by a stinging sensation, the tears mixed with blood trickled down her face-
Dad!
I’m sorry!
It’s all my fault!
All of this happened because of her. Even after her dad’s death, he was still subjected to humiliation.
Lenora was writhing intensely on the ground, struggling to stand up.
The man behind her placed a foot on her back, effectively immobilizing her.
Helen looked at Lenora’s desperate expression, feeling a surge of satisfaction. She scoffed. “She’s all yours now! I hope you ruin her. This lowly b*tch… I refuse to believe that Zachary would still want her after that!”
Having said that, she turned around and left.
Three men lecherously scanned Lenora from head to toe, flipping her over. They were simultaneously groping her indiscriminately and crudely tearing at her clothes.
“This woman has quite the figure! So ample!” The man was groping around, laughing lewdly as he did so.
“This is Zachary’s woman. Even a single night with her is worth it!”
Suddenly, a beam of light appeared in the distance.
From a distance, the sound of a car engine drew nearer
“Oh no! Someone’s coming! Run!”
The two men quickly got into the van.
Another
person was so infatuated that he even wanted to bring Lenora along. But the driver stopped him,

The van roared off into the distance.
Lenora lay on the ground, tears streaming down her temples, dampening her sideburns. She struggled to turn over, inching her way toward the urn, bit by bit.
Dad…
A car came to a halt a few steps away, while another one chased after a vall.
Zachary stepped out of the car and dashed toward Lenora.
“Nora! Nora, how are you?”
He quickly removed the cloth stuffed in Lenora’s mouth, untied the ropes binding her wrists, and helped Lenora to her feet.
When Zachary saw her swollen cheeks, marred with traces of blood, on both sides of her face, his breath. hitched. His heart ached as if it was being sliced by a knife.
He immediately carried Lenora horizontally and started walking toward the car. “Let’s go, I’m taking you to the hospital!”
Gently gripping his arm, Lenora looked toward the direction of the urn. With great difficulty, she managed to speak, her voice hoarse. “My dad…”
Zachary followed Lenora’s gaze and saw that Fernando’s grave had been dug up. A glimmer of coldness flashed in his eyes. “Don’t worry,” he reassured, “I’ll have someone take care of this. Let’s get you to the hospital first!”
They desecrated Lenora’s dad’s grave right before her eyes, scattering his ashes. This act is both heart–wrenching and utterly despicable!
Lenora finally felt her tense nerves relax, leaning onto Zachary’s shoulder.
A subtle ache spread across her lower abdomen, akin to countless ants gnawing, causing her consciousness to gradually fade.
Upon reaching the hospital, Zachary rushed Lenora into the emergency room.
As he watched the red light flicker on, he took a deep breath and sat down on the nearby chair. To his surprise, he noticed a darkened patch on his black suit trousers, as though stained by blood.
Helen returned home, heading straight up to the second floor.
Kenneth was standing at the stairwell, looking at Helen with displeasure. “Why are you back so late?“”
Upon seeing Kenneth, Helen was immediately filled with irritation, curtly retorting, “What’s it to you?”
“Did you touch the documents in my study?” Kenneth questioned.
Upon noticing Kenneth’s discovery, Helen didn’t bother to deny it. She confronted him defiantly, “So what if I did? If not for this, I wouldn’t even know that you and that despicable Jasmine had a child out of wedlock!”

will say it. Your illegitimate child! Helen’s anger escalated as she spoke, her words showing no mercy. ” Illegitimate child! Illegitimate child! If Fernando knew that his only daughter was in fact someone else’s, he’d probably be livid enough to rise from the grave!”
You… You shrew! I’m warning you! Don’t make any rash moves!”
Susanna lacked the ability, but Lenora was capable. As long as he reunited with Lenora, he would still be Zachary’s father–in–law, and others would still have to respect him.
“It’s too late! Are you still hoping to acknowledge that illegitimate child and become Zachary’s father–in- law? You’re dreaming!”
Kenneth suddenly had a bad feeling. “What have you done?”
“Ha! That illegitimate child must have been toyed around by other men by now. The video has already been sent to Zachary! If Zachary has any dignity left as a man, he won’t want anything to do with that illegitimate child!”
“You../despicable b*tch!”
In a fit of rage, Kenneth let out a furious roar and swung a hard slap.
This venomous woman!
She has ruined the future of the Carston family!
Helen’s head jerked to the side from the blow, disbelief etched on her face as she glared at Kenneth, her eyes filled with fury. “You dare to hit me? Kenneth, you’re going down with me!”
Helen charged forward, wildly swinging her arms. She left several scratch marks on Kenneth’s face.
Kenneth was not one to be outdone. He grabbed onto Helen’s hair.
The two were entangled in a fight.
Amidst the chaos, Kenneth misstepped, about to grab Helen for support. But Helen instinctively gave a forceful push.
Kenneth let out a horrific scream, tumbling down the stairs. He collapsed on the ground, falling eerily
silent.
She then stood at the top of the stairs, looking down at Kenneth below, her mind going blank for a
moment
A few seconds later, she managed to collect herself and hurriedly descended the stairs. She crouched beside Kenneth and nudged him twice. “Kenneth? How are you? Stop pretending!”
Kenneth remained completely still.
Helen was about to push further when she suddenly noticed a pool of blood on the ground where his head had made contact. She was instantly filled with alarm.

She slowly extended a finger, testing the breath from Kenneth’s nose. Her heart suddenly stopped, causing her to collapse onto the ground.
Susanna, who was bedridden, rece phone call from Helen.
The voice of Helen trembled through the phone. “Susahna, I’ve killed someone…”
A moment later, Susanna, feeling beside herself, hung up the phone..
The events of the past two days had completely taken hier by surprise.
Just yesterday, she discovered that Lenora was her father’s illegitimate daughter. Today, she received a call from her mother. She had taken Lenora to the cemetery and disfigured her. Upon returning, she accidentally pushed her father down the stairs.
Her father had passed away.
Helen’s voice trembled with agitation over the phone, pleading with Susanna to seek Zachary’s help. She didn’t want to end up in jail.
How useless!
Susanna was barely keeping herself together, so how could Zachary possibly heed her words?
Especially after Helen had hurt Lenora, how could Zachary possibly let her off the hook?
Helen cursed vehemently, accusing Susanna of being an ungrateful wretch. With a string of harsh words, she hung up the phone,
Susanna was in utter despair.
After such an incident occurred, Zachary wouldn’t just et Helen off the hook; he would immediately send her abroad.
She couldn’t leave.
If she were to leave, she wouldn’t have another chance,
No one could help her now.
Susanna sat weakly on the hospital bed.
After a long while, she made up her mind. She found that number in the phone book, a number that had been untouched for many years. Her finger hesitated for a moment before she pressed the call button.
After a considerable wait, the call connected. A male voice echoed from the other end of the line. “Hello?
“It’s me.”
There was a prolonged silence on the other end of the ane. Then, a voice questioned, “Why are you reaching out to me?”
“He wants to send me abroad!”

“Why should I?”
“Aren’t you afraid I’ll spill the beans about what happened back then?” Susanna threatened.
“Heh, when I forced you to leave the country back then, you threatened me in the very same way. Did you find it useful?” The man spoke casually, not at all intimidated by the threat.
Beep!
Listening to the sound of the call ending. Susanna was utterly frustrated. She threw her phone onto the hospital bed and lay down, feeling completely drained.
As she closed her eyes, all that surfaced in her mind were memories of her time with Zachary at university.
He was aloof, and she pursued him for a long time before he finally agreed to give it a shot.
When they were together, he was completely oblivious to the concept of being in a relationship. His days. were consumed with studying, bouncing between classrooms and the library. It was always her making the adjustments, keeping their relationship afloat.
Though somewhat tired, she felt exceptionally fulfilled inside.
Even back then, she didn’t love him.
Back then, she was still naive to the ways of the world and didn’t take a liking to Zachary’s aloof personality.
Instead, she was in love with that person who exuded warmth and kindness.
He was also the one she deeply loved, who, step by step, had led her to where she was now,
Had she not listened to him back then, perhaps by now she would have already become Zachary’s wife.

As for the person who appeared gentle and warm, seemingly full of affection… He was, in fact, the most heartless.
