After getting his revenge, Kevin felt empty inside.
After coming out of the warehouse, the person went directly to the bedroom on the second floor, where Lena’s body had been brought back by him and was now lying in a specially made ice coffin.
He squatted down and touched that face. Besides the icy rough sand feeling on his hand, he couldn’t feel anything else anymore, and his heart suddenly sank to the bottom of the valley.
“Lena…” Kevin called out to her softly, then continued on his own, “I have already made Zoey pay the price. Are you feeling any better in your heart? Can you forgive me, forgive my foolishness…”
And it was a huge mistake.
Thinking about what had happened in the past few days, his heart would ache faintly. If he hadn’t mistakenly believed Zoey, Lena wouldn’t have been driven to self–destruction.
Just as Zoey said, if she was the main culprit, then he was an accomplice, and the main culprit has already been punished.
And what about his accomplice? Perhaps he already had the answer in his heart.
Kevin looked at the sleeping person and said, “I have already asked someone to repair the greenhouse as soon as possible. It will be just like before, planting your favorite flowers according to your preferences. Just wait a little longer, and soon you will be able to rest there.”
This was the agreement between him and Lena.

Years ago, he built this flower house as a gift for Lena on their anniversary, simply because she mentioned wanting her own secret garden. He helped her make it a reality.
Later, he proposed to her here again.

On weekdays, Lena always liked to stay in the flower house, and he would accompany her as long as he was not busy, watching her arranging flowers and pruning, indulging in the midst of flowers. Over time, it became their love base.
He said he wanted to watch her plant flowers for a lifetime, until their hair turned white and they grew old together. Even in death, they wanted to be buried together in this place. At that time, she felt extremely happy.
But a lifetime is too long, and vows are easier to forget.
I don’t know when it started, Kevin no longer set foot in the flower house, only Lena’s figure was seen frequently. Later on, even she stopped coming.
“Are you punishing me?” Kevin silently cried, choking out, “I broke my promise first, so you became disillusioned and chose to burn yourself in the flower room to remind me, right?”
“I will not forget again, Lena.”
“You waited for me…”
His sorrowful cry lasted the whole night.
Over the next few days, Kevin didn’t go anywhere and just stayed in the room, guarding ‘Lena‘.
Ten days later, the flower house was rebuilt. Kevin finally cremated the body of ‘Lena‘ and then held a funeral in the flower house.

Most of the mourners who came to pay their respects were the elite of New York. Although there were rumors circulating that Lena had died by self–immolation, no one openly discussed it anymore. After all, the deceased deserved some respect. It was also a way to give her a final dignity.
From early in the morning until late at night, all the procedures were finally completed. After it was over, Kevin sent everyone away, and everyone advised him to take care of himself. But easier said than done, he sat in silence in front of Lena’s tombstone.
After a long time, he finally took out a letter from his pocket.
That was the farewell letter he had written. These days he had been suffering and in pain, constantly missing her. Now he can finally be relieved.
He touched the photo on the tombstone, a look of love on his face that had never been there before. He didn’t know how to cherish it before, only realizing what was truly precious after losing it.
“Lena, don’t walk too fast, wait for me, Kevin said with a smile on his lips before swallowing a whole bottle of sleeping pills.”
In less than half an hour, the medicine began to take effect. He collapsed in front of the tombstone, his vision darkening and his breathing gradually becoming more difficult.
But he did not feel the slightest bit of fear.
Because he could see the person he wanted to see.
“Lena…”
“Mr. Halden!! Little did he know, at that moment his assistant turned back and saw the scene in front of him, scared, he immediately carried the

In the end, the person survived.
