I Have Never Been Your First Choice novel Chapter 313

Chapter 313

Charlotte looked at her with obvious scars on her face, her nose was so sore, she fell from a high altitude, her skull cracked on the spot, and her appearance can be said to be incomplete.

The mortuary beautician spent six hours fixing up Maggie, and she looked just like she did when she was alive.

“If she saw herself like that, she must have felt really sad, but luckily, you guys were there.” Charlotte reached out to touch her hand, it felt like cotton, very soft.

The makeup artist beside me spoke slowly, “We try our best to recreate the deceased’s appearance before they passed away, so they can leave with dignity. That’s our job.”

“I wanted to stay with her for a while, just ten minutes.”

The beautician nodded, “Okay.”

Charlotte accompanied Maggie on her final journey. She walked out of the funeral home, the sun shining brightly, but she couldn’t feel the warmth.

“Charlotte!” Reynald got out of the car and headed straight towards her. He knew that Maggie had an accident, so he immediately dropped everything and rushed over. “Auntie, she…”

Charlotte reached out her palm, the sunlight shining through the gaps in the floor and reflecting on the ground, as if landing in her hand, but she couldn’t hold on to it. “I didn’t have the chance to truly feel a mother’s love for long before she passed away. You see, life is like this beam of light, visible but elusive.”

Reynald felt a sudden pain in his chest.

Yesterday…

If he had answered the phone…

“Sorry,” he ended up not saying anything else, just these three words.

Charlotte casually squeezed out a smile and looked up at him, “Reynald, I appreciate your help during this time.”
