Chapter 1132
But when she was in trouble, Tyler wouldn’t hesitate to save her, like the time she almost drowned as a kid and he jumped in to rescue her
Her first futter of feelings for him was when she saw his fearless figure in the water. From then on, she slowly started to have feelings for him. He not only saved her life, but when she was being bullied at school, he would step in and take the hit for her.
She would ask him back then, “Tyler, do you still care about me?” Tyler, in his school uniform, leaning against the railing, would glance at her and then arrogantly say, “In this world, only I can bully you.”
Back then, Liana didn’t understand what this meant, but now she suddenly realized that Tyler might have had some feelings for her at that time, he just hadn’t realized it himself.
Thinking about this, her eyes suddenly welled up with tears. He’s gone now, no one can tell her the answer anymore.
She reached out and traced down Tyler’s pant leg to the dried blood on the ground, his last words, four lines:
[Liana, I’m gone. I don’t have to worry about you marrying someone else anymore]
So, he was afraid of her marrying someone else till his dying breath.
He doesn’t have to fear seeing her marry someone else now that he’s gone.
That’s why he let himself die without trying to save himself, without even calling out to her for help.
Yes, Tyler sought her out many times because she was going to marry Will. He was afraid of losing her, but he didn’t know what to do.
He had to take the hard way, regardless of whether she was willing or not, his actions were indeed extreme.
Just like he always bullied her, yet saved her. Liana couldn’t take it, she questioned him, but he would always say, “I do what I’want, no reason needed”
He was just that stubborn, a strong independent thinker, no one could change his mind, like his persistent belief in medicine, ho matter how many medical experts disagreed with him.
But Tyler didn’t understand, when it comes to love, you can’t treat your loved one the same way you treat other things, it would only push her further away, even to the point of pushing her into a pit of fire, the one being loved, out of resentment, would grab his hand, dragging him into that pit as well
It was in this decade–long revenge plan that Liana made him, who didn’t know how to treat a loved one, become so extreme.
There’s no what if now, Tyler’s gone.
As she thought about this, tears rolled down her cheeks. Through her blurred vision, she saw another line of words.
[Liana, I’m sorry, I love you]
“I’m sorry” was an apology for the mistakes he made.
“I love you” was his belated confession.
Liana ran her fingers over the crookedly written words, a whirlwind of emotions hidden within her fingertips. The tearing in her heart split her in two, half of her mocking herself for having masochistic tendencies, the other half taunting her for killing the person she once loved the most.
The sound of the wheelchair echoed in her ears as she lifted her head, but her tears gushed out the moment she did.
Seeing Liana like this, Garett’s melancholic eyes filled with pity. He didn’t say anything, just looked away to the third line of words:
[Jason, heal your legs, and then live on]
Other than Liana, the only person Tyler couldn’t forget was Garett. In Tyler’s heart, he wasn’t Garett, but Jason Clowers, his best friend.
How did they become friends?

The readers' comments on the novel: A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)
Loved the story, many times caught in so much actually crying with the situation. Wish had more chapters to a better ending....
It's weird that the story went from narrative to slang use. Good story so far though...
