Chapter 1971

The sky that had been overcast for days finally cleared up on the day of Angelina's funeral.

Standing in front of her headstone in the silent cemetery, Landon placed a bunch of white daisies on her grave with a look ofdespair. Beside the bouquet rested the broken lucky charm.

Following that, Alyssa and Jasper offered their bouquet. The rest of the Taylor siblings were also present, alongside Julien, Rose,and Jordan. They offered Angelina flowers and prayers.

The women at the site wept while the men tried their best to hide their grief, offering comfort to their partners.

Only Cyrus, the policeman who had experienced his fair share of life and death, teared up ever since he arrived at the scene. Hedid not share many encounters with Angelina, but every time they met, she left a deep impression on him, especially the time atthe amusement park.

When he first met Angelina, she gave the impression of being arrogant and uptight. After their first exchange, he found her a jollyand humorous woman.

Memories of Angelina dressed in a pink bunny costume flooded Cyrus' mind. She had asked him for a photo with her handgently placed on his shoulder.

All of a sudden, he lost it. He hung his head low and swiftly wiped away a tear from the corner of his eye with a trembling finger.He hadn't sent her the photos from that day, and it pained him that he'd never get a chance to.

“Angie, rest in peace." Landon stared at Angelina's smiling face in the black and white photo on the headstone. His heartshattered into pieces, carried away by the wind that swept past the cemetery.

"| hope we meet again in the next life. Then, it'll be my turn to protect you."Aneat line was carved into her headstone. It read, "Here lies Angelina Harper, the best in the world."

Angelina was an orphan who had adopted the Harper family's surname after being taken in. Bill had named her "Angelina",carrying the meaning of "messenger" or "archangel".

He had remarked to Landon, "The girl who followed you around is more than just a pretty face. She has a tenacity and fierceloyalty within. She is like a guardian angel. | shall name her ‘Angelina.

Angelina proved Bill right. She was a guardian angel of Landon's throughout her short yet meaningful life. Everything seemed tobe destined.

At that moment, they heard the echo of footsteps approaching. Everyone looked up and was shocked at the sight of the newvisitor.novelbin

Lauren?

Not far away, Lauren sat in a wheelchair, wrapped in a woolen blanket, her petite figure accentuated by her oversized blue andwhite striped patient uniform. Her appearance evoked pity. Ben stood by her side, quietly watching over her.

“Lauren!” A spark finally appeared in Landon’s lifeless eyes. He hurried over to Lauren with concern, going on one knee beforeher and firmly clutching her bony hand, but it kept slipping away from his grasp.

He said, "You're still feeble. How could you leave the hospital?”

Jasper and Alyssa approached her with nervous looks as well. They glanced at Ben in surprise when they noticed Lauren'sincreased emotional stability compared to the night before.

“Last night, Mr. Justin's men delivered some meds to Ms. Lauren. She took the meds, and they were indeed effective." Ben, whosaw through their worries, added warmly, "Mr. Jasper, Madam Alyssa, Mr. Landon, don't worry. Mr. Justin and Mr. Javier werenotified of Ms. Lauren's wish to attend the funeral.

Jasper and Alyssa put on funny looks upon learning the information, especially Jasper, whose expression dimmed as he held herhand tighter.

"Ah... Ah... |..." Lauren's hand wiggled in Landon's palm. She gaped, but only simple sounds escaped her mouth.

“Lauren, you'd like to meet Angie. Right?" Landon said softly.

She nodded at him with tears in her eyes.

Inhaling sharply, Landon led his love to Angelina's gravesite. He closed his eyes in pain when they passed Jasper and Alyssa.Even now, his love for Lauren remained as deep as ever, unwavering and steadfast. Yet, he felt unworthy of a woman like her.
