Chapter 586 Until We Meet Again

“Grandpa… see you in the next life,” Tessa choked out, her voice trembling with every word.

Now, all she could do was hope there really was such a thing as another life.

Mr. Walter’s eyes slowly closed for the last time.

He had so many ties to this world, so many things he still cared about–but in the end, none of them could hold him back.

He was gone.

What followed was the funeral.

Landon took care of everything. Every arrangement, every decision–he handled it all alone.

Tessa hardly spoke.

Ysabel never left her side. She knew how much Tessa was hurting, but there was nothing she could do to ease the pain.

“Tessa… please, eat something,” Ysabel pleaded gently.

Seeing her like this brought tears to Ysabel’s eyes.

But Tessa only shook her head.

“Don’t worry about me,” she said quietly. “I just… need a little more time.”

She wasn’t lying.

She knew what she needed to do. She knew she had to get up, to face it all. But for now, her grief had its grip on her heart, and it wouldn’t let go. All she wanted was to give her grandfather the farewell he deserved.

But it hurt–more than she ever thought it would.

“Just eat a little,” Ysabel tried again. “If you go on like this, your body won’t hold up. Mr. Walter wouldn’t want to see you like this, right?“”

“Ysabel… please go. I just want a little more time with my grandpa.”

They were alone in what had been Mr. Walter’s room. Everyone else was busy with the preparations.

Ysabel wanted to say more–but the look in Tessa’s eyes stopped her.

She stepped outside without another word.

Nathaniel was waiting.

Seeing her come out, he wrapped an arm around her shoulders. He could guess how bad things were inside.

“We can’t do much,” he murmured. “But we can stay by her side. That’s all that matters right now. Don’t overthink it.”

“Nathaniel, I feel so useless, Ysabel whispered, voice breaking. “Tessa has done so much for me. And now

seeing her like this… I can’t do a single thing to help her.”

“You’re already doing a lot,” he said softly. “Tessa just needs time. You think someone like her can just turn her emotions off?”

“I know.”

But knowing didn’t stop the worry.

Tessa stayed in her grandfather’s room for a long time.

She only left when the entire funeral setup was complete–and from that moment on, she stood there in silence.

Winona watched her from a distance, a mocking smile playing on her lips.
