Burn the Marriage, Keep the Crown novel Chapter 110

As Serena scrolled through the photos and videos, a faint smile tugged at her lips, though her heart felt as though it were clenched by an invisible, merciless hand.

The images were of Cynthia Lynwood and Aaron.

They were at a theme park.

It seemed they had rented out the entire place.

That’s why every picture was devoid of any other visitors.

The photos were beautifully taken, almost ethereal.

In one, Cynthia Lynwood was on a carousel, laughing with pure joy, while Aaron stood on the sidelines, gazing in her direction.

His expression was bathed in light and shadows, making it hard to discern.

Yet, just from these images, one could sense a dynamic between them—she was playful, he was amused.

Serena couldn’t help but think back to when she first started dating Aaron.

She too had harbored many romantic dreams.

Going to a theme park with Aaron was one of them.

But Aaron always had a myriad of excuses.

Sometimes it was about Cynthia Lynwood, other times it was business.

Eventually, Serena got the hint and stopped asking.

Now, seeing Aaron and Cynthia Lynwood together, doing what she had once dreamed of, she felt no jealousy—only a sense of relief.

Those who are loved receive sweetness.

Those who are not only get broken glass.

She tucked her phone away and headed upstairs to prepare for the next day’s agenda.

Meanwhile...

In the parking lot of the theme park...

Cynthia Lynwood sat in the car, staring at her phone for what seemed like an eternity, waiting for a message from Serena that never came. Her brow furrowed deeply.

“I’ll take you home.” Aaron’s voice came again, as cold as the night air.

Cynthia Lynwood couldn’t wait any longer. She threw her arms around Aaron. “Aaron, don’t make me leave you, please. I promise I’ll just watch you from afar. Don’t send me away; you’re the only family I have left in this world.”

Aaron’s eyes flickered, and after a moment, he pried Cynthia Lynwood’s hands off him. “Cynthia, you’ve recovered. You can pursue your own life now.”

“I don’t want to, Aaron. I just want to be with you, even if it’s as your sister. Please, Aaron, let me stay.”

Aaron’s expression darkened. “Cynthia, Serena has endured too much over the years. I can’t wrong her any longer.”

Cynthia Lynwood looked up at Aaron’s resolute profile, and her heart grew cold inch by inch.

Was there truly no way out?

Was she really going to be sent away this time?

She suddenly regretted it deeply.

If only her illness hadn’t been cured, Aaron wouldn’t be sending her away.
