"You should just leave," the butler whispered after a moment of hesitation.

By the time Leonel left the villa, it was already dark.

But instead of going straight to his car, he went to the place where he and Alexis had planted a maple tree together. The maple tree had since been removed and replaced with a field of tulips.

The tulip leaves had withered when winter came.

As he stood there staring at the tulips, the butler suddenly appeared beside him and whispered, "This is all Mrs. Fowler's idea. She manages the garden by herself now."
