NovelReadingChapter 108
BANG-
With the piercing sound of brakes, Aurelia was thrown into the air.
For those few seconds suspended above ground, her world beca blur of chaos.
As her body crashed onto the pavement, she thought she heard the sound of her own bones shattering.
Then, she lost consciousness completely.
She seemed to drift into a dream, returning to the twhen she and Nolan were still in love.
She had just gotten her driver's license then, still unfamiliar with driving, and Nolan sat beside her, teaching her
hands-on.
"Aurelia, don't be afraid. Drive boldly-I'm right here with you."
But the scene shifted abruptly. The person beside her suddenly vanished, replaced by the image of Nolan with
bloodshot eyes, furiously stepping on the accelerator and driving straight toward her.

Aurelia jolted awake from the nightmare, her forehead drenched in sweat, her back soaked through.
Only then did she realize she was in a hospital. Her chest ached terribly, and it wasn't until a nurse cto give
her an injection that she learned several of her ribs were broken.
During her tin the hospital, Nolan never visited.
She hadn't expected him to csee her-after all, he hated her so intensely
now.
When she was discharged, Nolan was already busy preparing for his wedding to Evangeline.He demanded that
Aurelia participate in the entire process.
Because he wanted her to watch, with her own eyes, as he married another woman. To witness everything that
should have been hers being given to someone else.
Aurelia didn't refuse. She obediently followed behind him and Evangeline, watching as he helped her select a
wedding dress, accompanied her for wedding photos, and finalized the venue.
She had walked this path once before, but now, experiencing it again, the main characters had changed.
On the anniversary of Nolan's mother's death, Aurelia bought flowers early in the morning and went to pay her
respects.
She sat beside the tombstone, resting her head against it, looking at the kind and gentle face in the photograph
while speaking softly to herself.
"Mrs. Creed, are you well where you are? Do you ever feel lonely?"
"I remember when you were alive, you were so fond of me. You said | was like
your own daughter. And in my heart, you were like a mother to me."
"Don't worry, I'll be joining you soon."
Before Mrs. Creed's death, they had actually been very close.
Having lost her own mother at a young age, Aurelia had found maternal love in her. They were about to become
a true family.
But fate had other plans, and ultimately they were denied that connection.
Lost in thought, she suddenly heard a familiar voice. Looking up, she saw Nolan and his father arriving to pay
their respects.

Upon seeing her, Mr. Creed's expression immediately darkened.
"Wretched girl! Who said you could chere? How dare you chere!"
With that, he lunged forward and forcefully pushed her away.
Having just been in a car accident, Aurelia had no strength to steady herself. She fell heavily against the
tombstone, her head striking it hard enough to open a deep gash.
Blood trickled down her cheek, but she didn't say a word.
Mr. Creed's anger wasn't diminished in the slightest by her injury. His furious condemnations cone after
another.
"You! You don't deserve to be here!"
"Murderer! You're the one who should be dead!"
"What did our family ever do to wrong you? Nolan loved you so deeply, and his
mother treated you like her own daughter. Why did you have to kill her?"
By the end, his voice was choked with emotion, nearly breaking into sobs.
Aurelia's face turned deathly pale, but she remained crouched silently on the ground, saying nothing.
