Chapter 1931
Charmine had yet to wake up, and Anthony's eyes were still wide open.
The two of them had been through so much to be together. Why was God so harsh on them?
Annabel could not watch this anymore. She bit her pale lip before carefully choosing her words, saying, "President Bailey, I'm going out to get breakfast."
Anthony did not seem to hear her. He sat by the bed and held Charmine's hand, his bloodshot gaze never leaving Charmine.
Annabel looked away and turned to leave.
The sky was dark, and the streets were being cleaned. The smell of all sorts of breakfast dishes being prepared in shops wafted from afar.
Annabel stopped a taxi and went straight to the church.
Upon arriving, she noted that the ancient church was quiet, and the door up ahead was still shut.
She looked around and let out a sigh of relief. She had feared she was not the first to arrive, that she would not be the first to offer her prayers.
She went to the gate of the church and thought of what Susan said to her.

It was a distance of a few hundred meters from the gate to the church. Annabel did not frown nor did she rest; she continued to move forward with an earnest heart.
Her forehead was scratched and her knees were swollen, though she did not seem to feel the pain. She persisted through.
She finally reached the doors to the church. Enduring the pain that burned at her knees, she struggled to get back up on her feet.
Meanwhile, the heavy wooden door gradually opened.
