She flew to his side within seconds and knelt beside him. Everyone was extra quiet. You could hear the breathing of the hundreds of people present. The healers that were hiding earlier, slowly came out of their hiding spots to see why it was so quiet all of a sudden. When they saw Myles, they immediately rushed to his aid with their tools. They heard the quiet sobs of someone and as they went closer to Myles, the sobbing grew louder. They saw Gabriella sobbing. Her tears were...somehow gold in color and they stained the area of Myles's shirt where his heart was. The healers stepped back and watched in awe. ---- ( This part of the chapter is from Myles's POV) A ray of sunlight attacked my eyes as soon as I opened them and I immediately closed them and turned to my right and then opened them again.

He fell to his knees and cried even harder. He was lost.Myles looked at Gabriella's still body. Her face was beautifully sculpted by god.

" I didn't know that Helena was my daughter back then. I thought that Alexander was my child and Lady Rose was my wife back then. Why would I take an outsider's side instead of my son and wife's? Look at it from my perspective. It was not my fault", Sir James stated." It doesn't matter.

" Indeed, you are not easy to fool", Sir James said. " Of course. Anyone with an IQ over 80 can guess your intentions", Lady Anne scoffed. " The real reason I wanted to meet you--", Sir James took out the files Edwin had given to him. He stared at Lady Anne for a few seconds before handing the files to her " The reason is to show you this", Sir James said. Lady Anne hesitated before she took the file. She glanced at Sir James and then looked inside the file. Her eyes widened as she began to flip through it faster and faster. While Lady Anne was reading the file, Sir James poured a cup of tea for himself. He was trying to cool down the tea when Lady Anne suddenly slammed the file against the table. " Sir James, are you lying to me?!", Lady Anne asked angrily. " I'm not lying", Sir James replied calmly. " How could she be your daughter?! She is my daughter!", Lady Anne yelled.
