Chapter: 1308

“Don't worry about us. You are like family to us."

"Indeed. Focus on getting better. Silver Boulder Private Hospital is awaiting your return to work."

Trudy gently wiped the tears from Norah's eyes. "If you are feeling sad, talk to us. Don't keep it to yourself.”

Hearing this, Norah's emotional barriers crumbled, and tears welled in her eyes.

Trying to hold back her emotions, Norah confessed, "Gil, Trudy, I'm finding it difficult to accept the death of those close to me..."

Dealing with death was one thing when it involved strangers, but losing someone close through accidents was much harder to bear.

The loss of Amy had deeply affected Norah.

Norah's words caused Gil and Trudy to fall silent for a moment.

After a pause, Trudy's voice cracked as she said, "Aurelia has been gone for so many years, yet sometimes it feels like she's still here. But when I look at her old pictures, I realize she's been gone for a long time."

It had taken Trudy half her life to accept Aurelia's death.

Gil added, "Everyone experiences the pain of losing someone close. It's important to learn to accept this reality."

Their words offered some comfort, and after shedding tears for a while, Norah calmed down.

"Thank you, I understand."

Only Norah truly knew if she had accepted it.

Four days later, the sky was filled with heavy clouds, and a Light rain added to the chill.

As the funeral neared its end, Joanna wheeled Norah, who was using a wheelchair, to the cemetery.

Both wore black and their faces were somber.

Kason, who had been waiting in his car, saw Norah and got out.

“Nora, why are you here?"

He had not informed Norah about Amy's funeral, thinking she wasn't well enough to attend, but she had shown up regardless.

Norah gazed at a photograph of Amy smiling on the tombstone and pressed her lips tightly together.

“Having been close to Amy for over a year, I needed to be here."

A wave of sadness hit Norah, and she fought back tears.

Joanna pushed Norah closer, then moved back to stand beside Kason, watching as Norah joined her hands and closed her eyes.
