When she left initially, she also left her bracelet in the Quinn residence and didn’t take it with her. This bracelet embodied all her feelings back then, and at the time, she planned to completely let go of those feelings, so naturally, she left the bracelet behind.
She wasn’t clear about what happened afterward, only discovering two bracelets in a box while sorting her belongings. Her father said that Alice and Dorian Howards brought them over. She remembered when she was making the bracelets, Alice had also seen this bracelet, so that’s how she knew it belonged to her.
These two bracelets, with the passing of time, appeared even older.
"I never thought that after so long, I would see these two bracelets again," Mabel Quinn said. "This item feels almost like a memento..."
Kyle Kinston gazed blankly at the bracelets in the box and then picked them up, "Yeah, I really didn’t think I’d see them again."
Once, after her shipwreck accident and he couldn’t find her anywhere, he clung to the things left at the Kinston residence like a madman.
Among these two bracelets, the one belonging to him was always worn on his wrist, while hers was threaded with a chain and hung around his neck. He would occasionally hold her bracelet in his hand, as if only by doing so could he keep his mind from completely collapsing, allowing him a fleeting feeling that she was still by his side.
He once thought he would never find these bracelets again, yet never expected that at this moment, they would reappear before him in such a way.
His hands trembled slightly, then he pressed the bracelet to his chest, an expression that was both crying and smiling.
"Kyle, you..." His expression left her surprised and startled.
"I’m just so happy!" he murmured, "They weren’t lost, I didn’t lose them, didn’t lose them..."
It was as if his happiness wasn’t about not losing the bracelets, but about not losing his love.
At this moment, he bowed his head, his back slightly bent, as if trying to press those two bracelets into his heart, and his voice was tinged with a sob due to his excitement.
Mabel Quinn very gently brushed a hand over his head, her fingertips softly caressing his hair, "Neither of us lost them."
His body suddenly shuddered, and then he slowly lifted his head, his phoenix eyes slightly moist, fixedly staring at her.
Deeply affectionate and focused, as if this gaze had lasted for thousands, tens of thousands of years.
"Mabel, I love you," he said hoarsely, "I love you to the extent that I don’t know how to express it, and you? Do you still love me?"
Love... It seemed she still loved him, right? That’s why she was willing to start over with him, that’s why she hoped for a happy ending between them.
But now, how much did she love him? As deeply as back then? Or... were there now too many emotions, ones that even she couldn’t be sure of, needing to try, to walk together, to find out the answer?
Her silence seemed to be expected by him, and with a self-mocking smile, he softly added, "At least you’re willing to love me, right?"
That slight lift at the corner of his lips gave her an indescribable heartache, "Yes, I’m willing to love you," she said.
