Chapter 27 When no one was paying attention , Samuel suddenly stood up and ran to the edge of the deck .
Cassie , if you dont want to be with me , then I have no reason to go on living .
Im giving my life back to you , to atone for my sins .
This time , take good care of your child .
Dont let them end up like ours did .
Before anyone could react , Samuel jumped into the deep sea .
Samuel ! Cassandras mind went completely blank .
His figure had already disappeared beneath the waves .
Samuel drowned .
His body was recovered by Trevors people .
Cassandra had his remains cremated and brought his ashes back to Zeanor .
Outside , the rain drizzled steadily .
Trevor held up an umbrella , standing beside Cassandra .
She held the urn tightly as she searched for Samuels parents .
Their house had been sold .
His company had collapsed .
All his assets had been seized .
Now , they had no choice but to live in a slum , surviving by collecting trash .
Cassandra knew they had fallen on hard times , but she hadnt expected it to be this bad .
Samuels father stepped out of their shack , carrying a worn out bag , ready to scavenge .
When he saw Cassandra , his eyes darkened .
What are you doing here ? Do you come to laugh at us ? His mother also came out , her face filled with resentment .
Weve already hit rock bottom and you still have the nerve to show up ? Get lost ! Trevor frowned and shielded Cassandra .
His voice was cold .
You ended up like this because of your son .
Dont blame the wrong person .
Cassandra understood their pain and didnt argue .
Its fine , she said softly .
She held out the urn .
Mr.
and Mrs.
Nolan , these are Samuels ashes .

Then , she told them everything he had done while overseas .
She thought they would lash out at her again , but their reaction caught her off guard .
Good ! Its good that hes dead ! He degraded himself for a woman , he got what he deserved ! Eric knocked over Samuels urn .
The porcelain pot instantly shattered and the ashes spilled on the ground , mixing with the muddy rainwater .
Ariel was heartbroken for her son , but Eric pulled her back into the garbage dump .
The light drizzle turned into a violent downpour .
Then , the rain washed away the ashes .
When Cassandra leaned down to collect them again , Trevor stopped her .
The rain is too heavy .
Its no use .
W As she watched the last traces of Samuel disappear , a single tear slid down Cassandras cheek .
Goodbye , Sammy .
Trevor took Cassandra back to the Nolanss residence for a while .
She heard Ariel had gone mad , often searching for her son in the rain .
Her husband , disgusted by her madness , abandoned her and left the city .
No one knew where he went .
Maybe it was Samuels death that finally set Cassandra free .
She no longer hated her adoptive mother .
Instead , she sent her to a nursing home , covering all expenses so she could live there for as long as she needed.N Cassandra also donated to the orphanage she grew up in , visiting often as a volunteer .
One day , a group of children pulled her outside , giggling .
Someones looking for you ! At the entrance , Trevor was kneeling on one knee , holding a bouquet of flowers .
Cassandra Barnes , I owe you a proposal and a wedding .
Lets have the grandest wedding ever .
Cassandra smiled at Trevor .
She realized that these things could be obtained without asking and it was so easy .
It just depended on whether the other person was willing to give them .
She stepped forward and softly said , I do .
( The End )
