Chapter 214
Skyler had achieved her goal, so she didn’t linger at Willow’s apartment for long. She hummed a tune triumphantly as she gracefully walked out of the door. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
Fortunately, the um was made of hardwood, so Skyler’s earlier actions didn’t damage it. Even so, it took a considerable amount of effort for Willow to gather the scattered ashes and put them back into the urn.
As she held the urn tightly, tears threatened to spill from Willow’s eyes once again. She hastily took a deep breath, trying to hold back the tears.
However, despite her efforts to restrain the strong urge to weep, her voice still quivered with emotion.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Dawson. I’m so sorry. From now on, I’ll protect you well. You protected me when you were alive. Now, it’s my turn to protect you. I’ll be brave.”
Willow forced a smile, but it was more grimace than anything else. She had promised Kenan to marry him
and be his most beautiful bride. Yet, before he could see her in bridal attire, he had turned into a pile of
ashes.
The more Willow thought about it, the more desolate she felt. But even though he was gone, her promise
to him remained unchanged. She would marry him, even in death.
Willow had already made up her mind about what to do next. Marriage required a ring.
Back then, he had kneeled on one knee and asked her to be his girlfriend amidst the flowers. This time, she would propose to him..
She would buy the ring and wedding dress first. Then, she would seek revenge on Skyler. After that, she would wear her wedding dress and go to find Kenan on the road to the afterlife.
With her decision made, Willow grabbed her bank card and headed out to buy a diamond ring and wedding dress. After purchasing the ring and dress, she also planned to buy sulfuric acid. That was for
Skyler.
If she had any energy left, she would also get a bottle for Sylvia.
The cold wind continued to blow relentlessly, but Willow found solace in the chill. At least the cold breeze cleared her mind, making her plans for the future crystal clear.
She had one million dollars left. It was originally intended for Aaron’s surgery. After his passing, she had planned to leave the money to Nicola. But fate had other plans, and Nicola was gone, too.
Now, with no
no parents, husband, friends, or children left in this world, she saw no reason to hoard the money. So, she would spend the one million dollars lavishly on the ring and dress.
Willow didn’t like modern–style wedding gowns. She preferred Marleyan traditional wedding dresses. Hence, she went to a branch of Enchanted Moments.
Enchanted Moments was a brand founded by Wynn, Caroline, and Harper Vance when they were young. It featured Marleyan–style designs and also had a wedding dress collection.

Willow particularly admired the designs from Enchanted Moments. Wearing their wedding dress for her wedding had been her dream since she was young.
Once upon a time, this dream was for Zayn. Now, it was only for Kenan.
It seemed fate had a sense of irony. As soon as Willow stepped into the quaint shop, she saw Zayn and Skyler.
Matthew and Wilhelmina were there, too.
