Even After Death Novel (Olivia Fordham And Ethan Miller) novel Chapter 1567

Jacqueline threw herself to the edge of the bed, her features distorted in sorrow. "Grandpa, why didn't you hold on a while longer? I could've been able to see you for the one last time."

"Don't be sad, Ms. Jacqueline. No one had foreseen this to happen. Everything happened so suddenly. He was so angry and had a heart attack…"

Sean fought back his tears. "Terry, we made sure no word got out. How did he find out about it? Who called him?"

"I looked into the contact number. It's a fake number from another country. Forget about the dialer's identity, we couldn't even track down his IP address. The other party came fully prepared."

Terry's hands were tightly clenched into fists. The murderous intent in his eyes was glaring sharp. "Once I find out who the dialer is, I'll show him what hell feels like!"

His temperament had grown mild after years, completely different from 40 years ago when his way of doing things was infamously scary.

He lived by the streets as a beggar when he was a kid, so there was nothing he wouldn't do to live.

David took him in because of his cruelty. Terry's name alone was enough to scare people off.

Imagine seeing his savior pass away in front of him. No one could imagine how painful it was.

"Sean, Avery's not here, so you're the head of the family for now. What should we do with Grandpa's funeral?"

It took everything in Sean to announce his decision, "Arrange a burial. At least… he's in one piece. Terry, prepare for the funeral."

Terry took a moment before responding, "Yes, sir."

Sean stared at David. "Grandpa, your wish is finally granted. You always said that you wanted to keep Grandma company because she's lonely up there. But I didn't expect it to happen this way. I'm sorry for making you leave with regrets."

"We know that you cared for us, but we rarely spent time with you these years. I'm so sorry."

"Grandpa!" Jacqueline cried.

Sean, Troy, and Jacqueline surrounded the bed to bid their final farewell.
