Speaking of this, Aston opened a small red velvet box in his hand, in which there was a diamond ring.
Laurie, Aston's mother, smiled in relief, while Kayden was shocked. She didn't expect that Aston not
only took her there to see his mother but he also prepared to propose here.
The man looked at her expectantly, with undisguised love in his eyes.
Kayden knew that Aston was extremely simple in love. He would do it without reservation once he
loved anyone.
Sometimes she felt guilty. She had taken advantage of a good man. She often thought that she
shouldn't hurt Aston's heart, so she tried her best to be good to this man. When she got rid of this
matter and left him, she would feel less guilty.
However, she didn't expect that the two of them would make such rapid progress, and she didn't expect
that Aston would propose directly.
Aston's mother was watching there. Kayden had no choice but to hold back her thoughts. Finally,
Kayden smiled and reached out her hand.
At last, Aston put the ring on her finger.
Later, they went downstairs to have a meal. Aston's mother had always been kind to her, which made
Kayden feel more guilty. She felt like she had entered a whirlpool, unable to get rid of it, and unable to
find the right direction to get out.
Then Aston and his mother said goodbye, and the two got in the car again and were about to go home.
Finally Aston asked.
"You look a little absent-minded tonight. Did my proposal scare you? Kayden, I hope we can prepare
for the wedding as soon as possible. I have discussed this matter with my mother. I have broken away
from the Powell family, so at that time, we don't need to hold a grand wedding. We can hold a small
wedding party and invite some close friends of mine. It's my birthday several days later. Let's register
for marriage on that day. What do you think?"
It was the first time that Kayden felt flustered. In the past, she had always been confident and easy in
front of Aston.
Anyway, this love would be destroyed sooner or later, but Aston's love for her progressed too fast. If
she agreed to marry him, it seemed that this matter could no longer be stopped.
She couldn't take the position of his wife. Kayden didn't answer his question for a while. Aston asked
nervously again.
"Am I too anxious? But I think it is more meaningful to hold our wedding on my birthday. Kayden, are
you not prepared for the marriage?"
Kayden nodded after thinking for a while.
"I don't think I'm ready yet. Can you wait a little longer? Don't be so impatient."
Aston was a little disappointed when he heard Kayden's words.
He had been observing Kayden's expression. Somehow, he felt extremely flustered, as if something
was out of his control.
Georgia arrived at the airport in the morning. She took a flight of more than four hours.
Even though she had arrived at the airport, Georgia was still immersed in her own world.
After leaving the airport, when Georgia and Vanessa got into the car, she was finally woken up by a
familiar voice.
She raised her head and saw Travis's concerned look.
Did Travis also come to pick her up at the airport? Georgia finally realized this.
"Georgia, I know you feel bad, but it already happened. I know you can't go out of it now, but you're
gonna see Annie later. You have to cheer up. Annie has been crying these days. They didn't tell you
this before, because they were afraid that you would be more anxious. Now you are going home, and
will see Annie later. You have to comfort her. She is scared now."
Georgia nodded in a daze. There seemed to be someone talking in her ears all the time. Only when
Travis mentioned Annie did she focus a little bit.
However, Georgia lost herself again after that. She felt extremely tired. Her heart seemed to be empty
and without a bottom. Everything could make her fear.
But she couldn't fall asleep either. It seemed that as soon as she closed her eyes, Robert's bloody face
would appear in front of her eyes.
She didn't dare to sleep. She still couldn't believe that Robert had really left her and his funeral would
be held tomorrow.
Georgia didn't want to believe it. After returning to the villa, Georgia was helped out of the car by
Vanessa. The moment the door was opened, Georgia saw Annie rushing towards her.
"Mom... I miss you so much... I miss you so much..."
Annie burst into tears. Georgia squatted down and hugged her daughter. She patted her daughter's
back and didn't know how to comfort her. Her heart seemed to be empty. When she spoke, she even
didn't know if she was in a dream or in the real world.
"Mommy, did Daddy really leave us? Is it true? I don't believe it. Let's go to see Dad now... Okay? I
don't believe what Auntie Elsie said, nor what Uncle Wilson said. I only believe you... Tell me. How is
Dad? He must want to see us. He must be waiting for me, right?"
Annie's words finally brought Georgia back to earth. She looked at her daughter's crying face. Thinking
that she only had Annie now and that man had left her ruthlessly, Georgia held Annie and cried bitterly.
Georgia didn't answer. She just cried with her daughter. At this moment, Annie seemed to understand
everything. She held her mother and cried miserably.
"Mom... I want Dad... I want Dad. Why doesn't dad come to see me? Why didn't mom lie to me? Why
didn't mom lie to me?"
Annie cried as hard as Georgia.
Georgia seemed to be unable to speak. She couldn't cheer up to comfort her daughter. She couldn't
know how to comfort her daughter.
She could tell Annie that It didn't matter. It was not a big deal for her father to leave. How could she say
such words?
Originally, Annie had too much regret and anger for her father. But now, the person who made her
angry and missed left inexplicably. Annie was extremely regretful now.
She didn't smile or kiss her father when she saw him last time. She cried so sadly.
Later, the mother and daughter cried like this, and no one else could cheer them up.
Vanessa had no choice but to lift Annie up, while Elsie held Georgia's hand.
It would only make them sadder to let the mother and daughter be together.
They had thought that Georgia would come back to comfort her daughter, but now it seemed that she
could not cheer up at all. They could only separate the mother and daughter.
Vanessa took Annie to a bedroom alone.
"Annie, we are both here. Didn't Annie always stay with us when she didn't have a Daddy? We won't
leave you. It's just that Dad can't talk to you anymore, but he loves you all the time and will look forward
to Annie's happiness. Annie, don't be sad, okay?"
"Mom, but I want to talk to Dad. I want to hug him. I want to apologize to Dad. I shouldn't ignore him. I
want dad to kiss me and hug me, but he can't do these things anymore..."
Annie began to cry again. Vanessa could only accompany Annie and let Annie cry.
In the bedroom on the other side, Georgia was just sitting on the bed, lost in thought. She could only
hear the sounds from the outside world occasionally, as if she could just sit there silently until the end
of the world.
"Georgia, I know you are sad now and I also know that what I'm saying will hurt your heart. But Robert
died in a car accident. Although the police found that it was indeed an accident, don't you think that he
was killed by someone? How could someone like him die in an accident? I know you are sad and you
can't cheer up, but you have to avenge him. Can you just accept his death like that?"
Elsie's words were like a heavy hammer, instantly smashing Georgia's chaotic heart into pieces.
Yes, Robert told her that he was going to do something and he had told her to trust him.
But now, Robert had a car accident and passed away, which could only prove that someone had been
trying to kill Robert.
"Elsie, where is Robert's body? I want to see Robert for the last time."
Georgia suddenly came to her senses and held Elsie's hand tightly.
"Elsie, where is Robert's body? | want to see Robert for the last time."
Georgia suddenly came to her senses and held Elsie's hand tightly.
