Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 1750

As Fiona spoke, a touch of sadness colored her words. Her mom had always said that the locket she wore was a gift from her uncle when she was just a baby. But deep down, she knew it was actually from Mr. Aldridge.

“Your mom's right,” Mr. Aldridge had once told her. “Take care of your precious things. Until you’re old enough to look after them yourself, it’s best not to show them around.”

“Okay! I remember everything you said, Mr. Aldridge!” Fiona chimed in eagerly.

Outside the garden, Rover barked, breaking the gentle silence. Fiona glanced towards the gate, feeling a bit disappointed. She knew that bark—it was Rover, her brother's trusty pal, signaling that her mom was searching for her.

“Mr. Aldridge, will we only see each other again next year?” she asked, a note of longing in her voice.

“Yes,” he nodded.

Gordon held out his pinky finger to Fiona. “This is our little secret, Fiona. Do you remember what you promised me?”

“I remember,” Fiona replied, linking her pinky with his. “I promised Uncle Gordon that it’s our secret, and I won’t tell Mommy.”

“Good.”

Gordon gently tousled Fiona’s hair. “Off you go now.”

Fiona cast a reluctant glance back at Gordon as her mom's voice called her name. With a heavy heart, she turned and left the garden. The wind chimes jingled softly as she closed the door behind her.

“Fiona!” Sophie called as she stepped into the flower garden. Fiona dashed over, “Mommy!”
