Chapter 630 Madness (2/2)

”Yes, you will be our witness.” Jacob looked embarrassed with a bloody nose and a swollen face, but he didn't care about his appearance. ”Emily wouldn't want too many people to attend our wedding, so only the three of us should be enough.”

David swallowed and gave his word to Jacob. ”Okay, I promise I'll arrange your wedding, but you have to promise me that you will not try

ying to me this whole time?”

Seeing the sad expression on his daughter's face, Jacob couldn't find it in him to keep lying to her anymore.

But at the same time, a sharp pain shot up to this chest.

The mere thought of Emily's death brought him a violent streak of pain, which ripped through his heart and weighed down on him like a boulder. He fell to the ground, gasping for air, like a drowning man.

Panic-stricken, Beryl rushed over to her father and held him in her little arms. She reached out her soft little hands to rub his chest. ”Dad, are you okay? I promise I won't talk nonsense any more. Please, don't scare me like that.”

Jacob held Beryl in his arms, looked down at her face and caught his breath. Beryl was starting to look a lot like her mother. ”I'm okay. I promised your mother that I would take care of you until you grow up into a beautiful young lady. So, don't be afraid. I am not going anywhere.”

”Dad, is Mommy really dead?” Grief surged through her body like poison, demanding a release in any form. As a result, Beryl couldn't hold back her tears anymore.

Jacob picked her up and went into the room. He walked to ice coffin with Beryl in his arms. It was the first time Beryl had seen her mother after a long time.

The body had been restored, and now it didn't look as frightening as it once did. She looked pale and serene, like Snow White resting in her bed, waiting for her prince to wake her up.

”Mom...” Beryl reached out and tried to touch her, but the ice coffin was so cold that she subconsciously pulled her hand back.

Jacob looked at the woman lying in the ice coffin with a soft expression on his face and whispered, ”Beryl, don't be afraid. It's okay. We can stay with your mother forever. She will never leave us. She is only asleep for the time being.”
