WantNovelChapter 1423
Military vehicles led the way, government cars in tow, as Elizabeth made her grand return to Jindale City in a top-
of-the-line luxury car.
Even though all that was left of her now was an urn of ashes, she still managed to cause quite a stir across the
entire city.
It wasn't just the regular folks and politicians who took notice-every member of Jindale's high society felt the
tremor of her arrival.
Elizabeth's nwas anything but unfamiliar among the city's elite. After all, her whirlwind romance with
Kendrick had been the talk of the town back in the day.
Most of the fancy ladies in the upper crust never liked her. To them, Elizabeth was just a girl from an ordinary
background-she didn't have the pedigree, the connections, or the family money. In their eyes, she wasn't even
worthy to shine their shoes.
When news first broke about her and Kendrick, no one thought it would last. But then Kendrick turned his back
on the entire Bradford family for her, moved overseas, got married, and started a family far from the city's
prying eyes.
Suddenly, those ssociety ladies were green with envy. In their world, love was in even shorter supply than
loyalty. The women who'd never known real affection just couldn't stand to see someone else adored so deeply
by her husband.
They didn't even bother to get to know Elizabeth. Instead, they joined in with the Bradford family's whispers,
spreading rumors that Elizabeth was skind of manipulative temptress who'd cast a spell on Kendrick.
Then, when Elizabeth and Kendrick were killed in a car accident abroad, the gossip hit a fever pitch.
"See? Trouble follows a pretty face," they crowed.
"| said it from the start-Elizabeth was never respectable. Mr. Bradford was bound to run into trouble with her.

The tall tales only got wilder from there: Ssaid she'd been cheating overseas and was murdered by a
jealous wife. Others claimed she was keeping a boy toy who killed her in a rage. A few even whispered that her
marriage with Kendrick fell apart after she got involved with a foreigner, and that they'd plotted to have each
other killed.
No one had a kind word for Elizabeth. Not a single one.
Even after Tarquin took over as head of the Bradford family, the whispers never stopped:
"So what if her husband loved her? So what if her son's a big shot? She died a tragedy—the Bradfords never
accepted her!"
"She'll never set foot in the Bradford estate-not in this life!"
"She'll never be buried with Kendrick!"
"She'll never be recognized as Kendrick's wife!"
But now, here she was-coming hin a car fit for royalty, with military honors and government officials making
way. It was the kind sendoff that shook the city
social scene to its core. s

The very swomen who'd gossiped about her for years crowded around their
TV screens with their friends, eyes glued to the live coverage.
They needed to know: How on earth did Elizabeth, the woman they'd trashed for decades, manage to return with
so much honor? Who the heck was she really, to get a military escort through the city? s
Inside the luxury car, Tarquin held his mother's urn as they made their way to Number One Mansion.
He wanted to show her the hhe'd built, to let her see her son's house and know the way-just in case she
ever wanted to visit.
Next, he took her to the modest three-bedroom apartment where she'd once lived. The place was filled with
memories of Elizabeth's youth.
This time, just Tarquin and his

Emmett, ever curious, piped up, "Mom, do people really have souls after they die?"
Even Evan couldn't help but ask, "Mom, do you think Grandma knows we're doing all this for her?"
