Even After Death Novel (Olivia Fordham And Ethan Miller) novel Chapter 1569

Ethan placed a flower and remained quiet next to Janice.

The Procters noticed her and were, in fact, more surprised than Olivia to see her here.

Enna, Janice's mother, had mixed feelings seeing her daughter here.

Enna walked over, her body shaking. "What are you doing here, you ungrateful one?"

Janice raised her head and took in Enna's haggard face. Her chest tightened.

She didn't spend her time right all these years. Now, she finally realized how foolish she was for not being a filial daughter.

"Mom," she called.

"Don't call me that. As I said that year, I'll pretend that I don't have a daughter like you."

"Enough, Mom. Now that she's here, I bet she knows that she was at fault. It's been years. Are you still angry at her?" Derrick Procter tried to calm Enna down.

Ryder Procter attempted to shift the topic. "This must be Ethan. I never had the chance to meet you since you're mostly working in Arlandia. I'm your uncle."

Derrick and Ryder were Janice's brothers.

The funeral became a family reunion all of a sudden.

"Uncle Derrick, Uncle Ryder," greeted Ethan politely.

Despite the lack of enthusiasm in his greeting, his uncles liked him.

"It's nice to see you come back, Ethan. Your grandparents keep saying how much they miss you at home. We never had the chance to get close to each other because of your mother's incident. But I think she has figured it out now. Your grandparents can finally have peace of mind."

"Who says I'm forgiving this ungrateful child?" Enna's expression remained stoic.

"Don't mind your grandmother. She's soft on the inside. You should call her 'Grandma'."

Ethan, who grew up in a loveless environment, actually yearned for his family.

Besides, Janice was the one who hurt the Procters. They didn't hate him, and they barely interacted with each other.

"Grandma," Ethan called gently.
