The sketches portrayed different phases of Aimee and Marley’s Lives, each dated and arranged
chronologically.
It commenced with Aimee solo, but as time flowed, infant Marley emerged, nestled in Aimee’s
embrace.
Yet, Aimee’s expression remained eerily vacant, reminiscent of a ghostly specter.
Proceeding along the timeline, the drawings depicted Aimee confined within the flower house, her back
to the window.
The meticulous strokes and artistic finesse suggested to Ariana that these images were Likely
Theodore’s creation.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs she surveyed the room, a blue teddy bear atop a nearby box entered her peripheral vision.
Intrigued, she delicately picked it up, questioning the presence of such a toy in this place. Suddenly,
Theodore’s voice echoed from the doorway.
Startled, Ariana swiftly set the teddy bear back down, blurting out an explanation in her startled state. “I
didn’t mean to snoop. I inadvertently triggered a switch…”
Unexpectedly, Theodore remained composed. He entered and revealed, “This is my sanctuary to
remember them.”
His fingers lightly traced the sketched figures. “Whenever I felt troubled, I would retreat here for
solace.”
Relieved he wasn’t upset, Ariana inquired, “What do these boxes hold?”
Theodore traced the boxes with his fingers, replying, “Their belongings, things I secretly saved.”
“Secretly?” Ariana echoed, puzzled.
“Yes,” Theodore affirmed ly mother’s name has always been a forbidden subject for Darian. Mentioning
her in this mansion or anywhere else was prohibited. When she died, there wasn’t even a decent
burial. All her possessions were incinerated by Darian. These boxes contain the few items I managed
to save over the years.”
He glanced at the teddy bear Ariana had previously touched, adding, “And this teddy bear was Marley’s
cherished toy. I only recently discovered it.”
As Theodore narrated, Ariana felt a profound sadness. Her heart ached for his loss.
Theodore then directed Ariana to a ruby-adorned box. He lifted the lid to reveal an assortment of books
and velvet boxes.
Extracting one of these boxes, Theodore unveiled a stunning gemstone necklace within.

Carefully, Theodore clasped the necklace around Ariana‘’s neck, revealing, “This was intended for my
mother’s future daughter-in-law, a gift from her. Today, I can finally present it to you.”
Ariana touched the necklace, her emotions too profound to put into words.
Theodore offered a comforting smile, saying, “My mother always fantasized about the kind of wife I
would bring home. Unfortunately, she isn’t here to meet you, but if she were, she would have been
enamored with you.”
In Theodore’s recollections, Aimee was always a patient and kind-hearted woman, particularly fond of
the young. Had she been alive, she would have doted on Ariana.
Moved by his words, Ariana glanced at the wall paintings.
