Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 627

Jerome pursed his lips and did not say anything else.

Spring came early in Salt City. After a few heavy downpours, several plants were beginning to sprout.

Munchkin was beginning to have teeth. He started to enjoy biting things, putting everything that was within reach into his mouth. Apart from the time he was sleeping, I would be watching after him most of the time.

Xander was really efficient at handling things. In less than a week, he had already found a buyer who was interested in buying the house.

Although house prices in Salt City did not skyrocket year after year, it was still a developed city. As years passed, house prices had risen considerably. Coupled with the luxurious renovation and complete furnishing, the price was bound to be much higher than when it was first purchased.

The buyer was serious about buying a house. Knowing that I was not planning to ask too much from him, he decided to take the house.

It would take a few days to finish the handover procedure of the property. I had been planning to go to the cemetery yet never managed to go. Therefore,

during the weekend, I drove to the cemetery because Jerome and Xander were both free and could help keep an eye on the child.

It was nearly March now. The morning sun was not too glaring. Perhaps because of the heavy dew, I felt a little humid not long after I went out the door.

As it was very early, not many were at the cemetery. I walked on the stony path and paid my respects to the deceased.

I stood in front of Mom’s tombstone, looking at the woman with a bright smile in the photo on the tombstone. My eyes welled up with tears. "Mom, I seem to be living my life quite badly.”

After a pause, I continued, "Everybody's gone and I'm all alone. I feel really lonely now."
