His Stunning Doctor Wife novel Chapter 2653

The plane landed in North Islet City at noon.

Fade immediately headed to Melbour's house after he got off the plane.

After driving for more than three hours, he exited North Islet City and entered the mountain area.

Melbour's hometown was located in a small village there.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, he finally arrived at Melbour's house with the assistance of the locals.

It was an ordinary village.

The two-story house seemed quite new, as if it hadn't been built for a long time. On the roof stood a pot- shaped satellite. Dried radishes, corn, and other food were hung at the door.

A big yellow dog was wandering at the door. When it saw Fade and his group arriving, it immediately started barking wildly.

Hearing the noises, two middle-aged people walked out of the house.

Both of them were dark- skinned and hunchbacked. Although they were only sixty years old, the wrinkles on their faces made them look even older.

"Uncle, Auntie! I've failed the both of you." Fade came up and knelt down in front of them, kowtowing three times.

Seeing this, both of them hurriedly helped him up.

"No, you can't do that!"

"You can't kowtow to us!"

"Sir, get up, quick!"

They couldn't get Fade up and almost knelt down to him.

He quickly got up and took their rough hands. He felt a lump in his throat as he spoke, "Uncle, Auntie, I- I'm here to send Melbour home."

While speaking, he handed over an urn.

Both of them stared at the urn and froze on the spot.

Melbour's mother couldn't hold it in anymore and started crying. She touched the urn and began to weep.

"Melbour, why did you leave?"

"My Melbour, I haven't seen you get married. I haven't had the chance to take care of any grandchildren. Why did you leave like this?"

At the side, Melbour's father bit his lips, trying not to cry, but tears still flowed down from his face.

"Uncle, Auntie, I..." Fade's heart ached at the sight of that heartbreaking moment.

It was the fourth time he had seen a similar scene in the past few days.

Each time was like a dagger that stabbed into his heart.

He choked on his words and didn't know what to say to comfort them. He also knew that no words would be enough to comfort them.

He could only lower his head and wait quietly for the two of them.

About a few minutes later, Melbour's father wiped the tears on his face and forced a smile. "Sir, I'm sorry. I... We..."

"Uncle, I understand how you feel. We're the ones who should be sorry!" Fade said.

"Dear, don't cry. The officers are still standing outside. Go and get some tea!" Melbour's father said.

"Uncle, no, we don't need to..."

Although Fade had declined, Melbour's father still invited them into the house and brought them tea.

It was just plain tea, but Fade and the others finished it without wasting a drop.

Melbour's father spoke up, "Sir, I want to know how Melbour sacrificed his life."

"This..." Fade was silent for a moment.
