She squeezed the letter with aplicated expression, wrestling with her emotions.
Eventually, she decided to put the letter away and returned to Nathaniel’s tomb.
“Mom, what did the letter say?”
Amanda was lost in thought and didn’t respond to her daughter’s question.
“Mom, what’s going on? You’re scaring me.
What did Nathaniel write to you?”
Vivien was confused and tried to grab the letter from Amanda’s hand, but she pulled away.
In a panic, Amanda crumpled the letter, popped it into her mouth and swallowed it whole.
“Mom, what are you doing?” Vivien asked, bewildered.
“Mrs.
Roberts!”
Everyone was dumbfounded by her sudden bizarre action.
Amanda didn’t bother to exin.
She ran out into the pouring rain, embraced Nathaniel’s tombstone, and cried hysterically, “My son! My son, you were too young to go.
How could you leave me and your sister all alone? No…”
Her screams were so intense that her voice became hoarse.
The raw pain etched onto her face moved everyone that they began to tear up.
Amanda had always presented herself as a refineddy, but in that moment, she didn’t care about any of that.
It was the first time she cried this hysterically in front of so many people, and yet no one found that wrong.
They also understood her act of swallowing the paper.
They couldn’t me her.
The one who had passed away was her only son, the most promising child in the Roberts family.
Her sorrow must be overwhelming.

Her heart was so numb that she could feel nothing.Ccontent ? exclusive by N?/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

As they were leaving, Vivien spotted Lucinda beneath a tree, and her anger boiled over.
“This is all your fault! It’s all your fault! If it weren’t for you, my brother would still be alive.
How dare you show your cruel face here?”
