The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge (Anna and Justin) novel Chapter 1519

The sky was gray today, with a drizzle falling from the first light of dawn.

However, it was perfect weather to visit the deceased at the graveyard.

Bella and Justin visited Mary again. They even went so far as to tidy up the gravestone and add flowers.

Though Mary was buried six feet underground, the couple’s attentiveness and longing would accompany her to her grave.

“Bella and I avenged you, Mom. Shannon’s been handed the death penalty. You can finally rest in peace after 20 years.”

Justin took Bella’s hand and held it tightly. “Justice has been served. Rest easy.”

The couple put their heads down in front of the gravestone.

Footsteps drew close.

“It’s Grandpa Nigel!” Bella cocked her head and beamed.

Justin hid his emotions behind his eyes.

Several feet away, Matt pushed Nigel, who was in a wheelchair.

A bouquet of white lilies rested on Nigel’s lap. They were Mary’s favorite. Before her passing, Mary always made sure Tideview Manor was decorated with fresh lilies.

Even Nigel, Mary’s father-in-law, was aware of her preference. Yet Gregory, the husband, had no idea.

Oh, the irony.

“I’ll help you, sir.”

Matt was about to help Nigel up when the old man propped his arms on the armrest and rose to his feet.

Justin and Bella were taken aback. They were relieved as Nigel stood firmly on his feet.

Nigel solemnly approached the couple with a bouquet in hand. He looked at Justin kindly. “I hope you don’t mind if I visit your mother.”

Justin shook his head, and his breath hitched.

Bella pursed her lips as tears filled her eyes.

Nigel’s health had been on the decline in recent years. He would need a wheelchair for important events, but to pay Justin’s mother respect, he ditched the wheelchair and stood before the gravestone.
