Anna was the only one present who knew the true cause of my death. She even knew more about how my body was handled than I did.

So when I said those words, it struck her the hardest. Her face turned pale, as if all the blood had drained

from it.

The Sanders quickly ushered her into the car. Out of both reason and obligation, she was now a national treasure-level asset worth billions. How could they not protect her properly?

I watched her figure disappear in the distance, my hand instinctively resting on my flat stomach.

Joy, I hope you're watching from up there. Mommy will avenge you!

Anna, my child couldn't survive-why should you get to enjoy the blessings of children and family love?

Billions of dollars, but it all depends on whether you have the luck to claim it!

After witnessing the Sanders indifference to my death, was even more certain that I owed them no courtesy. They weren't worthy of it.

I watched Anna, surrounded by Kate's embrace, with Ethan busy opening the car door for her.

My mind brought me back to the night I died. I thought of Luke, of Anna, and of every member of the Sanders.

I wondered, if I died, would they mourn me?

But watching this scene unfold, I couldn't help but ask myself, what did I mean to them?

My father didn't care, my mother didn't love me, and my brothers completely ignored me.

They were sad for a couple of days when they heard the news of my death, but now they were cherishing the person who killed me.

My short life felt like nothing more than a joke.

"Still watching? They've all gone."

I didn't realize when Carter had appeared behind me. When I turned around, there were still unshed tears. in my eyes. "Come here.

I didn't understand but walked toward him. "What's the matter?"

Before I could finish, he pulled me onto his lap, his rough thumb wiping away a tear from the corner of

my eye.

I quickly explained, "It's just the wind, it made my eyes water."

"Mm. I know."

I grasped his wrist, my gaze sharpening. "Mr. Bolton, what's this about?"

Carter wrapped his arms around my waist, pulling me closer into his embrace. Thankfully, his winter coat was thick, so I couldn't feel the warmth of his body against mine.

His attitude toward me had changed dramatically. The coldness in his gaze was replaced with something far more complicated.

It was as if a mixture of emotions tangled fogether, shrouded by a layer of mist, making it impossible to

Carter spoke quietly. "Since neither of us plans to divorce, I'm your husband. It's only right that I take care of you, unless you dislike me for being a cripple."

I quickly waved my hands in protest. "I've never looked down on you because of your condition. You're a wonderful person."

Hearing this. Carter smiled, a rare and warm smile.

It was like the spring breeze, which swept across the snow-covered mountaintops, bringing a soft, warming breath of spring. In an instant, the snow melted, and flowers began to bloom. His smile was so beautiful, I thought to myself.

"Good. I'll take care of you from now on.

Something about him felt off, but I couldn't pinpoint

I nodded slowly in a daze. "Okay"

"In a couple of days, there's a dinner party. I heard Lustre Jewels has brought in some rare pieces. Would you like to go with me?"

Now that I was Mrs. Bolton, I had to attend these events with him, so I didn't hesitate to nod. "Sure."

My mood lightened, and I stood to push him back toward the room, a sweet smile on my lips.

As soon as we stepped inside, I met Luke's gaze. His eyes lingered on me and Carter with a mix of jealousy and envy.

"Uncle Carter. I want to talk to you in private."

"Okay."

I had sensed that Carter didn't have any animosity toward Luke, but now I felt a strange sense of indulgence from him.

Weren't they supposed to be competitors, vying against each other? Carter had said he wanted to replace him, yet he hadn't done anything to harm Luke.

I quietly walked away. I'll go cut some fruit for you."

"Alright." Carter led Luke to the room, and just as I was about to head to the kitchen, I noticed my clothes were dirty. I planned to go change.

But I never expected Luke to say what he did next.

He bowed in front of Carter, his face full of pleading. Uncle Carter, please grant my wish again. Right now, only our three families know about your marriage No one else does. Could you let Zoey marry me instead? I want to marry h
