At that moment, an image surfaced in Vivian's mind. It was a scene she had seen from a video; a grinning Evelyn closing her eyes and making a wish.
Indeed, who wouldn't like such an angelic girl? What more for the guy who grew up with her, Finnick. He probably will never forget her...
Vivian felt bitter that Rachel insisted on going to the grave, but she caved into her anyway. "All right, I'll go with you. I can't leave you to go on your own."
"Don't worry, I'll arrange for a doctor to go along." Benedict was surprised that Rachel cared so much for Evelyn.
Hearing that they both agreed to her request, a smile appeared on Rachel's face. Vivan urged her
to rest more.
Two days later, Vivian accompanied her mother to Evelyn's grave. Benedict picked them up from the hospital early in the morning and set off together.
Nestled in lushes of green where birds' chirping was heard all day long, the cemetery was nothing but a tranquil place. Yet, it did not make the undead feel relaxed, but heavy hearted.
Evelyn's grave was at the very end of the cemetery. The group walked for quite a bit before arriving at hers.
Vivian placed the white roses on in front of the tombstone. A beautiful photo of Evelyn caught her attention.
Stepping backward, she found Rachel sobbing non-stop.
She attempted to wipe Rachel's tears with a handkerchief. Within a split second, it was soaking wet.
Looking at the weeping Rachel, Vivian had no idea how to console her. She could only stood by her side and accompany her.
When Vivian was in a daze looking at Evelyn's photo, a group of reporters came from nowhere and surrounded her. Each of them pointed a long microphone at her.
"Mrs. Norton, why are you here at Evelyn Morrison's grave? Does Mr. Norton know that you're here?"
