"Grandma has left us..." After a long while, a deep suppressed voice came through. It was so deep that Summer could sense a strong feeling of depression on the other end of the phone. It was suffocating.
'She left...'
Considering his feelings and depressive emotions, it was not hard for Summer to make a guess. The "left" h e meant was not just leaving a place, it might be...
Summer felt some dryness in her throat. Her drowsiness was also gone. She held her phone tightly and responded, "When did this happen? Are you-"
'Okay?' She had not finished uttering the last word, but the call ended because the other side had hung up.
With furrowed brows, Summer did not really sleep for the rest of the night. She did not know if her guess was right or wrong. However, she selfishly wished in her heart that Ms. Moore was safe and sound, sitting o n the couch while feeding cats.
The next morning, Daisy made breakfast while Summer washed up in the bathroom. At that moment, there was a knock on the door. Solomon opened the door and there stood a stranger in a black suit.
"Mr. Hart, does Ms. Hart stay here?"
Hearing this, Summer came out of the bathroom. "I am Ms. Hart. How may I help you?"
"I am here to give an obituary notice. Ms. Moore’s funeral will be in three days.” After informing her about the matter, the man left.
Summer was stunned on the spot, and the toothbrush i n her hand fell onto the floor. She never thought that M s. Moore would really be gone...
Right then, the feeling that emerged within her was inexplicable. In the Valentine family, other than Jazz, Ms. Moore was the second person she loved the most.
The last time she met her had been four years ago. It had been the night before they departed for their honeymoon. Now, they were separated eternally and unable to meet anymore...
It was unexpected that when they meet again four years later, it would be in this way.
Four years ago, her body had been so tough. It was as i f she could live up to a hundred years old without any problem. It was really unexpected!
