"To my darling , Kelly," He coughed and cleared his throat.
"If you're rea-"
"Can I read it myself ? I know he'd want me to read it myself . It's personal." I interrupted the man reading Bentley's will. I just felt like the letter should be read to whom it was addressed to.
He handed me the paper and patted my shoulder sympathetically. Then left the room quietly , closing the door behind him.
"Should I leave too? Avery said as he scooted to the edge of his seat , prepared for me to say yes.
"No, please stay." I said and he slid back into his seat and rubbed my back .
"My darling Kellandra,
If you're reading this then you're probably feeling pain. Knowing I'm not there , except I am, just not physically. I remember sitting in that same position, feeling lost and hopeless. But because I learned this way already , I don't want you to feel the same . Celebrate the time we had together, which if I must say was well spent . Thank you for making my last years the most memorable, for teaching me the value of life, teaching me love . I left everything to you because I know you will do right by my most precious possessions. I know you will always do right. I fought , and I fought hard. But you fought with me , my toughest battle ever was made a little easier because you were by my side."
I had to put the paper down for a few , I was so hurt . So distraught.
"Though you are so special to me, you are special to the world . I know you're going to be great , with or without me. This isn't the end. With LOVE, Bentley."
I cried my heart out for about 30 minutes. I felt like I was being suffocated. I felt like a part of me left with him. I can already hear him telling me not to let this bring me down, but hard wasn't even the word .
I looked up from my snotty tissues and reached over to the box that was on the table in front of me . In side of it was a bunch of jewelry Bentley had left behind for me .
"Ma'am?" Bentley's representative peered back into the room. "He left more things, I was coming to bring them to you but if you need more time I can come back."
I gestured for him to come in and he took and envelope along with a small black box out of his suit pocket, handed the items to me and then walked over to the corner of the room and stood quietly.
Avery touched my shoulder slightly and gently encouraged me to open the envelope.
I ripped it open and it was a letter along with a check for 25 million dollars .
"I remember hearing you talk nonstop about this ring you wanted . I also remember watching you custom create it . Open the box. And smile like you would if I was there. With even more LOVE , Bent"
I opened the box and there was the ring. I spent hours customizing it to what I liked most . But I didn't want to pressure Bentley so I just played it off as a joke but I was dead serious. Not only was it the ring I was in love with, but the fact it's the most sentimental thing he left behind for me ...
