when she could reunite with him during school breaks

Later, when he married Natalie, she still hoped he would come back often.

Christina lacked patience at this moment, and she was irritated by Wanda’s kindness.

“Miss, how can you not eat? You’ll collapse if you continue like this.”

“I wish I had burned in that fire instead,” Christina said bitterly.

Yes. Once a person was dead, that was the end. It was those who lived that suffered! The living was.
