Chapter 556

Briony offered a gentle smile. "I don't blame you. In your position, you haven't done anything wrong."

Lorna pressed her lips together, watching her for a moment.

Then, without warning, she stepped forward and embraced Briony.

Briony was momentarily taken aback.

Lorna whispered in her ear, "I'm leaving now. Take good care of yourself and the kids. Next spring, I'll come back to visit Stewart's grave."

Briony nodded. "If fate allows, we'll meet again."

Lorna let her go and looked over at James in the driver's seat. She gave him a cheery wave. "Goodbye, Mr. Delaney!"

James looked at her, hesitated for a moment, then finally said, "Take care."

Lorna smiled, turned, and walked briskly to her own car.

Briony turned away, opened the door, and got into her car.
