Margaret visited her husband George’s grave regularly, leaving white roses and lilies as symbols of their eternal love. However, she soon found her flowers discarded multiple times, sparking her curiosity and concern.

Determined to uncover the reason, Margaret returned daily until she spotted a woman crying near George’s grave. Dressed in worn clothes, the woman introduced herself as Annabel and shared her heartbreaking story of being abandoned by George, who left her and their three children for a richer life.

Margaret was taken aback, unable to comprehend that the man she loved had betrayed his family. Annabel pulled out old photos: one of George’s hasty marriage to her and another with their children. The shock left Margaret trembling, shattering her perception of George as the loving husband she had mourned.

Struggling with disbelief, Margaret whispered, “How could you?” Looking at Annabel, she felt a swell of empathy and sorrow. “I’m so sorry for what he did to you and your children.”

Margaret invited Annabel to her home, offering her support and a job at her firm. They formed a bond, united by their shared pain.

Years later, after Margaret retired and traveled the world, she returned to find white roses blooming in her garden, accompanied by a letter: “Because of you, hope bloomed in our lives again. Thank you, Margaret.”

With a smile, Margaret felt a sense of peace, knowing she had turned her heartbreak into healing for both herself and Annabel.
