Chapter 1136 After the local cops had closed off the scene and investigated the cause of the shooting, they confirmed that Tyler had committed suicide and got in touch with the authorities in his home country. Those cops, after getting the lowdown on the story, passed the buck back to the local police. They sent Tylerâs body to the crematorium to be turned into ashes.
Liana watched as Tylerâs body was tossed into the cremator When his body suddenly sat up due to nerve reflex, she wished it was real. But as a doctor, she knew the score For about three days after someone dies, their muscles arenât totally dead yet. When the muscle tissue feels the scorching pain, it causes a nerve reflex Tyler sitting up in the cremator was just his bodyâs muscles reacting to the pain. Tyler was gone, never to return.
Heâd protected her before he died, shielding her from any fallout, but got branded as a rapist and kidnapper himself. His reputation was shot to hell after he died, and Hackett wiped him out of the family tree The Howell family wouldnât have a Tyler anymore. Just to save their image, they still had someone come to pick up Tylerâs ashes Along with Hackett came Karan, and the kid she had in her later years. The kid, only seven, was named Damien Howell. He was young, but his gaze was iceâcold When Liana handed over Tylerâs urn to Damien, he just took it for a moment, then recoiled like it was a box of trash, and tossed it to a servant behind him. He never looked at it again.
Liana didnât have much to say. She was the one whoâd killed Tyler, after all. What could she expect from a sevenâyearâold kid? Especially when Tyler hadnât exactly been nice to the kid.
Still, why did Karan crack a smile when she touched Tylerâs urn? Sheâd been the one to drive Tylerâs mother to her death, ruining Tylerâs life. How the hell could she still smile?
Back in the day, Karan had been real good to Liana, always telling her, âLiana, Tyler is such a good boy. You gotta get along with him, show him some love, donât make him angry.â Liana thought, âSince Karan is being so nice to me, I gotta do as she says and treat Tyler right.â So she always tried to get close to Tyler, to please him A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)

When Liana was still young. Karan would tell her, âLiana, look at Tyler. Heâs getting more and more handsome. If you can win his heart, youâll be able to live with me forever once you marry himâ Liana, who already had feelings for Tyler, would blush at such words. Seeing this, Karan asked Liana, âAre you falling for Tyler?â
Liana, not willing to spill her secret, shook her head no. Seeing Lianaâs reaction, Karan just smirked and didnât push it.
After that, Karan started having the nanny prepare delicious meals to put in lunch boxes for Liana to take to school for Tyler. She even had Liana go into the bathroom to give Tyler a towel while he was showering, even though Tyler never asked for one. And when Tyler was sleeping, sheâd have Liana bring him a cup of milk Back then, Tyler didnât care for Liana. He dealt with her kindness and attempts to get closer in a pretty rough way. Heâd throw the lunch directly into the trash, fling the towel in Lianaâs face, and splash the milk all over Liana. Liana, hurt to her core, didnât want to do it anymore, but Karan told her to suck it up, saying that Tyler would eventually be moved by her efforts.
Liana didnât get it and asked Karan why she had to do this. Karan, with a smile, touched her nose and said, âIâm doing this for your own good. Since you like Tyler, 1 should help youâ
Karan didnât seem to give a damn whether her actions violated any moral norms. Even though Liana and Tyler werenât bloodârelated, theyâd grown up under the same roof, with a familiarity that couldnât be deeper. Was it really appropriate for Liana to get close to Tyler like this?
