The light of the twilight sky in the burial area made Anne and Jack even sadder even though both had promised not to cry when visiting the grave of their little daughter who had been waiting for her visit. Anne, who was still not 100% healed, was sitting next to her daughter's grave that was still full of fresh flowers. Flowers brought by reporters covering the loss of Jack and Anne to their daughter, Princess Clarke.
Jack actually could have come alone to the princess's grave but he decided to wait for Anne to come together.
"Thank you for choosing me to be your mother, child. Now you rest in peace with your grandparents. Mommy, Daddy, and Christian, we all love you, Princess," said Anne stuttering as she touched Princess' cross-shaped headstone. Anne's tears continued to roll down her cheeks as she did this.
Jack landed a kiss on the princess headstone with a face wet with tears. "Good night my dear daughter, someday when the time comes we will all be together again without any more pain and sadness. I love you my princess, my precious, my little Angel."
Anne lowered her head deeper to hear Jack's words, who knows how many times she had wiped her tears. Anne was actually given a video of the princess's funeral procession by Jack, but she refused to see it. Anne would not be able to stand watching the video, it must be very painful to see the daughter who was conceived for eight months in the video in a lifeless state. Anne was not strong enough to see all that, so she preferred to go straight to her daughter's funeral.
Seeing Anne winced in pain, Jack then called Doctor Caitlyn to check on Anne's condition. Even though the stitches in her stomach were dry, but for some reason Anne suddenly felt the pain again.
"We'd better go home. Tomorrow you can come back to this place if you want to visit Princess," said Doctor Caitlyn quietly as she helped Anne into the wheelchair.
Anne shook her head. "No, Doc, I don't want to leave just yet. I still want to be here."
"But Anne, you can't sit too long. You're not fully healed yet."
"Give me a minute, Doc, I still want to be with my daughter. I still want to comfort her, she must be lonely in there," said Anne hoarsely.
Realizing that something was wrong with his wife, Jack immediately approached Anne and immediately gripped her hand tightly. "Princess is happy now, honey."
Anne lifted her head and looked at Jack. "But she's so small Jack, she must be freaking out in her new house." Anne suddenly pulled her hand from Jack's grip and directly touched her husband's face. "How about we take the princess home, Jack? Just one night, I want to breastfeed her tonight. Come on, Jack, hurry and bring our daughter home."
Jack bit his lower lip. This was the thing Doctor Caitlyn feared the most. Anne began to speak incoherently. Seeing Anne's change in attitude made everyone cry. Even Alice hugged Erick and hid her face in her lover's chest. Alice couldn't bear to see Anne's change in attitude.
Doctor Caitlyn, who had guessed that Anne would be in such trouble, immediately turned to Luis. She asked Luis to help bring Anne back to the car. Anne couldn't linger at the princess's grave.
Anne, who still wanted to be with the princess, rebelled when she was invited to go home. She even hit Luis and bit his arm several times. She screamed and called out Jack's name countless of times, asking him for help not to be taken home. Jack, who was still standing beside the princess's grave, could only be silent and cry when he saw Anne. Anne must get help immediately, otherwise her mental state would be disturbed. Therefore, she would be taken to the hospital at this time.
Anne experienced a severe mental shock. The pain in her stomach that she suddenly felt made Anne subconsciously asked to meet her daughter who she had just given birth. And this was actually what Doctor Caitlyn was worried about, even though it would be difficult for a woman to accept the sudden death of her child. Jack wiped his tears and hurried away from the princess's grave to follow Anne who was already in the car with Doctor Caitlyn, who was trying to calm her down.
When Jack was about to get into the car, he suddenly saw two men who were very familiar with him standing not far from him with flowers. Jack asked Nicholas who led him to the car to stop.
"Sir."
"It's okay, Nick, I'll meet them," said Jack quietly.
The two men who were carrying white lilies walked up to Jack at the same time. Both of them looked the same height so they looked like twins. Moreover, their faces looked similar.
"I'm sorry about what happened to your daughter, Mr. Clarke."
Jack smiled. "Thank you, Mr. Lloyd."
"What happened to Anne? The last time we saw her she was fine." Edward joined in.
Jack, who had forgotten Edward's name a little, seemed to be deep in thought, trying to remember it again. But it still didn't work.
"You..."
"Damn, you forgot me, sir?" Edward asked surprised.
Jack nodded slowly. "Do we really know each other?"
Edward slapped his forehead hard. "I'm Edward, a college friend of Anne and Linda. A few years ago we met when our campus held an event and I also had an internship with Anne at Ganke Inc. Production at that time as well."
Jack racked his brains trying to remember the man who had just spoken, vague memories of events at the UAL campus a few years ago surfaced but because there were so many people he had met at that time. Jack still couldn't remember Edward, even though at that time Edward had shaken hands with Jack for a long time.
"Oh so you're my wife and Linda's college friends?" Jack asked quietly after giving up on remembering about Edward.
"Yes."
"But wait, you said yesterday you met my wife. Where did you meet?"Jack suddenly remembered what Edward had said a moment ago.
"We met in the park near my office. At that time, Edward was taking care of my daughter and Anne and her doctor came down to see Charlotte," Chester answered quietly. "Don't worry, it was an accidental meeting. So don't think anything of it, your wife is a good woman."
Jack smiled. "I trust my wife more than anyone else," Jack replied quietly with a stern look at Chester with warning.
Edward scratched his head. He didn't understand what Jack had just said. It was just that he felt that Jack and Chester's relationship was not good. After making small talk, Jack then left Edward and Chester who wanted to visit the princes. Jack went to the hospital immediately to catch up with Anne, who needed his support at this time.
