Summer Shawcross, with red-rimmed eyes, reached out to take the remote control from Katherine Irving’s hand, pressed the power off button, then tossed the remote aside.

"I’m fine. You should go back, I want to be alone for a while!" Summer bit her lip before speaking.

"You..." Katherine looked at her with concern, hesitated for a moment, then gently nodded in agreement.

"Alright... if you need anything, call me, I’ll be next door."

Summer said nothing.

Katherine turned and left.

As soon as Katherine left, Summer closed her eyes, somewhat wearily lying on the bed.

Summer took a deep breath, trying hard to remain calm, but her mind was filled with the images and sounds from the earlier television broadcast!

A deceased wife, a fiancée...

She had to keep telling herself that everything might not be true, she needed to see Noah Drexler with her own eyes!

She needed to hear him admit it to her face before her heart could die. Until then... she couldn’t believe or doubt anything!

Her brother was no longer alive, her sole motivation to continue living was now Noah Drexler.

Even thinking this, her feelings remained uncontrollably troubled and chaotic...

Thinking of this, she simply took the pillow beside her and pressed it over her head, trying hard to calm her heart.

But... over the course of several hours, her heart only grew more chaotic.

She tossed and turned on the bed, but ultimately couldn’t fall asleep.

In the early hours of the morning, Summer finally couldn’t help but sit up in bed, threw the pillow aside, got out of bed, and decided to go outside for some fresh air, hoping the cold wind might help her calm down.

...

Summer walked aimlessly along the path lit by street lamps.

The resort was very quiet at dawn.

Especially in the employee rest area, it was particularly silent, with not a soul in sight on the road.

The cool breeze brushed against her face, but Summer’s mood was no longer able to remain calm.

Just as she was walking aimlessly forward, her eyes unconsciously glanced ahead and suddenly noticed a figure with black curly hair crouching there.

Surprised, she looked carefully and noticed that under the tree ahead, a woman was crouching and burning something.

Curiosity compelled her to walk over, and when she got closer, she found the back figure somewhat familiar.

"Sherry?" She recognized the person and spoke out in surprise.

Upon hearing the voice behind her, Sherry paused for a moment and then turned her head to look at Summer Shawcross.

When she turned her head, Summer showed a look of shock.

Usually appearing strong and unreasonable, Sherry now had a bare face, eyes moist, and a face covered in tear stains...

At this moment, she had lost her usual aura, and without her usual red lips and heavy makeup, she looked much more gentle, so much so that Summer almost didn’t recognize her.

"What are you..." Summer asked in confusion.

Summer instinctively looked at what she was burning in her hand, it was joss paper...

Summer paused. Did she have a loved one who had passed away?

Seeing Summer appear, Sherry’s expression froze for a bit, then she casually wiped away the tear stains that represented vulnerability before slowly speaking.

"Today is my son’s sixth birthday." Saying this, she looked at the pitch-black night sky, her gaze filled with resentment.
