Chapter 204 Orlando‘s Funeral
At that moment, Viola couldn‘t even think straight. She looked down at the blue and white porcelain jar in her hand, and her hands suddenly trembled uncontrollably.
Viola handed the jar of ashes back to Todd, biting her lower lip and shaking her head with a sneer.
“I don‘t believe it. If you want me to believe it, get him to tell me personally!”
“Ms. Zumthor…”
“Go away!”
Viola roared and took a step back. Then, she closed the door heavily, shutting everyone outside.
Viola took a deep breath to calm herself down, trying to regain her senses.
As soon as Viola sat down on the sofa, she saw a pile of sticky notes she had just taken down.
Viola picked them up again and looked at them seriously.
Also, Viola remembered that before Orlando got into the car that day, he pulled her into his arms and hugged her very tightly. At that time, Viola did not notice anything wrong. Now, when Viola recalled it carefully, she remembered that Orlando‘s eyes seemed to be a little red that day…
S
So, Orlando had long known that this day would come. Thus, before Viola left Washington, Orlando prepared to meet her for the last time.
But…
Viola hadn‘t seen Orlando‘s body yet.
So Viola didn‘t believe it! She didn‘t believe that Orlando had died!
The reason why Nell was not in the villa was that he had gone to the crematorium with Todd and the others. And he just got back at this time.
When Nell was called in by Viola, there was still a trace of sadness on his face.
Viola sat on the sofa in a daze. There was no sorrow or tears on her face. She looked
indifferent at that moment.
When Nell walked in front of Viola, Viola suddenly stood up and threw a vicious slap at
Nell‘s face.
“Ah…”
Nell was caught off guard. He took a step back, and the corner of his mouth broke. Blood seeped out.
Nell didn‘t dare to wipe the blood off. He sipped the blood in his mouth and stood properly, enduring Viola‘s anger.
Nell said, “Ms. Zumthor, if this can make you feel better, then it‘s fine if you want to beat me to death. Mr. Caffrey died because of me. I feel like I am almost drowned in guilt! If I can die in your hands, I will feel better.”
Viola looked at Nell. Seeing that Nell was crying so sadly, Viola slowly retracted her hand and sat back on the sofa.
“What the hell has happened?”
“I was actually sent there to monitor you, Ms. Zumthor. But I couldn‘t do anything to you because of my heart. Those people didn‘t want to let me go. Three days ago, they gave me an ultimatum. They wanted me to lure you to the abandoned warehouse in the east suburb woods outside the city. When Mr. Caffrey found out about this, he told me not to tell you. He said he would go for you.”
The more Nell spoke, the sadder he was. He cried and continued, “I didn‘t expect that … he would never be able to come back. Ms. Zumthor, I’m sorry!”
“He… Before the accident, did he have anything to say to me?”
Nell thought for a few seconds and said, “No.”
Viola pursed her lips and lowered her eyes slightly. She was a little dazed and dejected.
Seeing Viola like this, Nell felt very sorry. He said, “It‘s all my fault. Ms. Zumthor, you can hit me! Don‘t hold it back. If you feel uncomfortable, just vent it out!”
“Get out.”
“Ms. Zumthor…”

“Get out!”
Nell knew he couldn‘t do anything to make Viola feel better now, so he chose to let her calm down alone.
The window in the living room was open, and it was a little cold when the wind blew in. Viola felt cold.
Viola stared at the stack of sticky notes on the table. Orlando’s handsome and lively face suddenly appeared in her mind.
In the past, Orlando was always cold and indifferent.
But when Viola began to recall it, she always remembered various Orlando‘s pitiful expressions. Now, Viola couldn‘t even remember what Orlando used to be like.
Thinking of this, Viola rushed up to the third floor and took off the sealed box placed on the top of the cabinet in the room.
“Where‘s the photo? Where‘s our wedding photo? It was clearly here!”
Viola turned the room into a mess and finally found only half of the wedding photo under the box. Viola was smiling brightly in the photo, but she was also the only one left in the photo.
The other half of the photo that had Orlando in it was cut off by Viola when she decided to take revenge on the Caffrey family.
Viola‘s knuckles turned white as she held the photo tightly. Then, her hands trembled as she opened her album on her phone. She searched for a long time.
However, Viola could not find any of Orlando‘s photos at all. The dramatic thing was that Orlando and Viola had been married for three years, and Viola had loved Orlando for six years…
The only thing left was a recording,
