Listen Audiobook Version:



Before going to sleep, Eva sent a message to inquire about Lisa. Lisa responded by sending a video of two cute kids playing games at an amusement park. "Don't worry, I've taken care of them for you. The two little ones had a great time today. It's convenient that tomorrow is the weekend, so I'll bring them back a bit later." Eva trusted Lisa because she had helped take care of children for her before. "Okay, thank you. I'll see you when I get back," Eva replied before putting away her

Unaware that after sending the message, Lisa opened Dylan and Ruby's video in WhatsApp. She found them so adorable that she couldn't resist sharing it on her Moments.

Shortly after sharing, several boys who had been pursuing her quickly liked and praised the children, hoping to impress her. As Lisa scrolled through their comments, she couldn't find any joy in it. All these men did was mindlessly flatter her, so insincere.

Thinking about something, Lisa exited Moments and couldn't help but look at the WhatsApp chat with Mr. Blackwood, whose contact information she had pinned. Since adding him, they hadn't exchanged a single word.

Lisa had messaged him, but he never replied. Judging by his cold attitude, he probably didn't even read them. And it seemed like he had something with Eva. Lisa didn't dare ask, nor did she want to. If there was something, she didn't want to know.

With that in mind, Lisa opened their chat, only to see that all the messages were sent by herself. It made her feel like a bothersome pest. She had never felt so low in her life; usually, it was men chasing after her. Even when she made the first move, a flick of her finger was enough to have them come running. But with him, it felt like no matter what she did, he wasn't interested.

Lisa felt a bit annoyed and clicked on his profile, contemplating deleting him. However, when her finger hovered over the delete button, she hesitated. She still felt attached... After a moment of indecision, Lisa exited the profile. She decided to keep it for now. Maybe there would be a chance in the future.

At this moment, Ruby called out to her, "Aunt Lisa, come quickly."

Lisa immediately put away her phone and replied, "Coming."

She didn't pay attention to how many comments there were in that circle of friends and went to play with the two children.

The next day, Eva woke up on time and got ready. She changed into a set of underwear she had brought, followed by the sweater and coat she wore yesterday, and went out.

She thought she would have to wait, but to her surprise, as soon as she stepped out, she saw Adrian leaning against the door and Jacob standing awkwardly to the side.

When Jacob saw her, he immediately smiled.

"Ms. Hansen, good morning."

Eva glanced at him and Adrian and coincidentally caught Eva's gaze.

"Why are you both here so early?"

"We woke up early, Ms. Hansen. It rained all night yesterday, and the temperature outside is low. Would you like to wear something warmer?"

No wonder Eva felt a bit cold after coming out.

She was fine herself; she could handle the cold.

Eva looked at Adrian.

After seeing what he was wearing, her eyebrows instinctively furrowed.

Adrian was wearing just a shirt and a coat, with only a light-colored sweater underneath. Actually, for a healthy man, this kind of outfit is not insufficient for this weather, but Adrian is still sick, and his immune system is weak, yet he is wearing so little.

"Jacob, you'd better remind Mr. Blackwood to dress warmer than me."

At least she was wearing a coat, and the coat was padded.

"Not cold," Adrian said.

"But you're a patient," Eva said as well.

Upon hearing this, Adrian chuckled softly, "If I were a patient, would I accompany you to the cemetery? Come on, let's go. Stop fussing, don't we still need to buy things?"

Eva didn't know what else to say. Since he doesn't wear more clothes, he must know what he's doing.

She couldn't keep treating him like a wife, could she?

After thinking it through, Eva didn't say anything else and nodded.

They bought some fruits, flowers, and offerings before heading to the cemetery.

On the way to the cemetery, Eva's mood suddenly became heavy, and the atmosphere in the car became very somber.

No one spoke. Everyone knew this was a sad occasion.

After arriving, the car stopped and the doors were opened.

The cemetery still had traces of water on the ground from the night's rain, and the air smelled of a mix of rain, grass, and moist soil.

After the rain, the cemetery was sparsely populated. The roads on both sides were clean, with rainwater washing fallen leaves into the soil.

Eva followed behind Adrian as they walked in, and she noticed that the graves were not as closely connected as she usually saw. There was a small gap between each one. After looking around for a bit, Eva averted her gaze.

They walked for who knows how long until Adrian's steps came to a halt.

Observing his actions, Eva stopped as well and followed Adrian's lowered gaze.

Attached to the monument was a color photograph. In the photo, Granny Blackwood looked young and radiant, with a dazzling smile. As Eva looked at the picture, she stood frozen in place. The words Granny had spoken years ago seemed to echo in her ears.

"Adrian, Eva, when I pass away, please stick a photo of me when I was young on my tombstone. Your grandfather left us early, and I'm afraid that if you stick a photo of me from later years, he won't recognize me."

Eva's vision blurred, and she could no longer make out the details of the photo. However, Granny Blackwood's youthful smile had already been deeply imprinted in her mind.

"Sorry, can you give me a moment alone with Granny?" Eva's voice trembled, despite her efforts to restrain it. Adrian furrowed his brows slightly, then glanced at Jacob. Understanding the silent signal, Jacob left with Adrian.

Once they were at a distance, Eva and Granny Blackwood were left alone. Eva approached the tombstone, holding flowers and offerings. She bent down, placing them gently by the grave. "Granny, Eva's back."

When she had come, Eva had so many things she wanted to say to Granny Blackwood. She even planned out what she would say. But now, standing here, she couldn't utter a single word. It felt like a small knife was stirring in her heart. Gently, Eva brushed away the grass beside the tombstone and wiped off the dust near the photo. Her emotions began to calm slightly.

"Granny, I'm sorry. When you left, I didn't tell you the truth. I haven't come to visit you all these years either. You must be angry, right? It's okay, it's normal to be angry. I'm even mad at myself. If you can see me from heaven, you can scold me in my dreams, okay?"
