After careful consideration, Evie chose Jane's cemetery in Bone Mountain. Although Jane was not buried with her father, the distance was not too far.
On the day of the burial, it was foggy and light rain.
Evie stood in front of the brand-new tombstone, with Aron holding an umbrella behind her.
She had been standing for a long time.
Aron didn't rush her but just accompanied her quietly.
Evie returned to her senses until her phone in the coat pocket began to vibrate.
The call was from a lawyer.
"Ms. Cross, the property division between Brian and your mother has been dealt with. In addition, the money Brian owed you has also been submitted to the court for execution."
"Okay. Thank you."
"However, as far as I know, Brian probably doesn't have any property that can be enforced," the lawyer said regretfully.
After Brian was arrested, his muddled accounts came to the surface.
"Well, I know that."
After hanging up the phone, Evie took a deep breath.
Then she looked back at Aron. "Let's go. Athena has been waiting for a long time."
"OK."
Aron reached out to hold Evie's hand.
It was only ten degrees in the mountains.
It was raining, and Evie's hands were very cold.
Aron clenched her hands subconsciously.
In the Cafe at the foot of the mountain, Mia was digging a piece of blueberry triangular cake with a small spoon.
Aiden sat across from her and used an iPad to explain math problems to his friend he met while camping.
Adela had noticed Mia since the funeral.
Sitting at the bar at the moment, with a smile on her face, she looked at Mia, who was eating the cake seriously.
