Mr. Moore let out a long sigh and patted Bennett's shoulder. "Don't feel burdened. You've done more than enough all these years. Vonnie was a reasonable girl; she wouldn't blame you. Her spirit in heaven would want you to live the rest of your life well."
After Yvonne's death, Bennett had almost followed her to the grave. Later, he took care of her parents and donned a uniform to finish what she had started.
Bennett had truly done enough.
"I know." Bennett, unable to explain Yvonne's rebirth, could only give a vague nod.
Yvonne, Monica, and Mrs. Moore chatted and laughed as they finished cleaning the kitchen.
The warm, harmonious scene made her feel, for a fleeting moment, as if she were living in a memory. This feeling of family, it was wonderful.
"Yvonne, the tea is ready. Why don't you take a cup to Bennett? Be careful not to burn yourself," Mrs. Moore said, pouring the freshly brewed tea into several cups.
Yvonne picked one up and brought it to Bennett.
As she stepped out of the kitchen, she saw Bennett and Mr. Moore talking on the sofa.
She hesitated, thinking she should go back and get a cup for Mr. Moore as well. Just then, Mrs. Moore came out of the kitchen behind her and called out, "Leonard, come get your tea before you start whining about a headache later tonight. I'm not in the mood to take care of you."
Mr. Moore chuckled, stood up, and walked over to his wife.
Bennett looked up, and a smile slowly spread across his deep, dark eyes as he saw Yvonne.
Yvonne walked over and sat down beside him, handing him the tea.
"Mrs. Moore made this. Drink some, it'll help with the hangover so you don't feel sick later."
"Alright." Bennett took the cup and downed it in one go. Then, he reached out to ruffle Yvonne's hair and asked, "Are you staying with the Joneses tonight, or coming back to Cherry Bay with me?"
