Chapter 83
After many days, Kayden will finally talk to Aedin.
I distanced myself from the bed and went to the door of the room.
” Of course.”
Before I even got to completely walk out of the room, Kayden slipped his hand on my shoulder.
” She told me to tell you that there’s something for all of you under the bed of hers in the maids’ quarters.” My heart raced at what he said.
I shook my head at him.
Not now.
—End of FB-
I left Kayden together with Brylle on the grave of Aedin and entered my car.
I swiftly drive it back to the mansion.
We… never found her body.
In fact, we never found anyone’s body.
Everyone included in that bombing became ashes.
Some are identified because some pieces of clothes were still on the floor so we figured out those are the ashes of the clothes’ owner.
We managed to bury some people.
And the fact that we saw Maximo’s ashes made us really satisfied.
We found out that the one who is always by Maximo’s side is the one who helped Nic and the others to get inside the Arkaine Estate.
We were also surprised to know that some of our men are part of an agency which makes me really frustrated.
There are a lot of people maintaining watch on ours without our knowledge.
I found out that Nass’ brother is still alive.
His agency also helped Nic in fighting Maximo’s men.
He gave a good beating after I recovered from my injuries because of me not taking care of his younger sister.
I deserved that…
I’m somehow trying to find Nass for the past few weeks.
But I can’t even see a glimpse of her.
My hold on the stirring wheel tightened.
I reached for a cigarette on the compartment of the car inside and light it up.
The cigarette is still not in my mouth when I remembered the time she told me that smoking is bad for my health.
I sighed heavily and got out of the car, I’m already outside the mansion.
I gave my keys to one of my men so he can bring the car to the garage.
I threw the cigarette on the stone way then stepped on it.
” Kei!” I looked at Nic who is in the living room with the eight others.
They are all here…
I nodded at Nic as I walk towards the maids’ quarters.
” M-Maitre.” I glanced at the other maid whose name is I think is Ema.
” I’m sorry. Can I go inside?” Her eyes widened and immediately nodded.
” Of course, sir. But manang is resting inside.” I nodded at her.
” That’s okay, thank you.” She slightly bowed. I don’t pay attention to how fast she walks away from me.
I sighed then opened the door.
I was greeted by manang who is lying on one of the many beds there.
” Keiranz.” I approached her and kissed her cheeks.
Manang woke up from a coma last month, and she’s now fully recovered.
But it’s hard for her to move so much now.
” Are you sure you don’t want to rest in a more spacious room?” She shook her head and gave a smile.
” It’s alright. I’m more comfortable here. I might not get rested in a fancy bedroom.”
I smiled at her.
” Okay” I looked at where Nass’ bed is.
” Do you think I’m ready?” Manang eyed me curiously.
” It’s on you, Keiranz. The question is, do you think you’re ready?”
I closed my eyes shut and took a deep breath before going to the bed.
I peeked under the bed and there is indeed an old shoe box.
I reached for it and bring it into a more clean space.
I opened the box and saw a lot of envelopes that I think what contains her letter for all of us.
I let out a shaky breath, brought the letters with me, and went to where the others are.
” Here. It’s from Nass,” I coldly said. They all stared at me when I lowered the envelopes on the coffee table in the middle of the sofas.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
I went to the stairs and climbed up to my room.
The part that the fire took in is now repaired and renovated.
However, I didn’t let them change the design of my room.
I sat down outside on the floor, beside my door.
This is where I first saw her…
My jaw tightens on what I’m about to do.
If I open this, that means I’m accepting that she’s… gone.
” Nass,” I mumbled.
My envelope has a heart shape on the upper left part.
I rubbed my thumb over that part of the paper.
I looked up at the ceiling.
Contemplating if I should really do this…
” F*ck.” I opened the envelope and took a folded paper inside.
My heart sank when I saw the familiar writing.
