Chapter 434 The Cemetery
Chapter 434 The Cemetery
The rain stopped at dusk. Albert said that they didn't need to be too hurry to go there, so they decided to stay in the hotel for another night and go there tomorrow. Brain and Bruce insisted on sleeping with their parents. In the end, there were four people on the small bed.
In the early morning of the second day, they went out of the hotel. At a snack stall on the roadside, they ordered soybean milk, fried dough sticks, and porridge etc. Although Enrique didn't eat much, Teresa hadn't eaten such food for a long time, so she ate several steamed buns and a bowl of soybean milk. Albert and the other two old men had porridge, and Gavin was fond of fried dough sticks. Gavin felt that it was still so delicious even though he hadn't eaten it for years.
"Uncle Gavin. You'd better eat less. Recently, I've read that there is washing powder in the fried dough sticks."
Gavin's face changed when he heard what Enrique said while eating the porridge. He looked at the fried dough stick in his hand. Washing powder? At the same time, the owner of the snack stall happened to pass by. When he heard what Enrique said, he was unhappy to hear that.
"Sir, our stall is a small one. Although it can't be compared with a big restaurant, we won't do such a thing against our conscience. Our family has opened a snack stall on this street for decades. If we make food as you said..."
"I'm sorry. He didn't mean it."
Seeing that the owner of the snack stall was getting more and more angry, Teresa hurriedly apologized. Enrique turned his head and glanced at the owner of the snack stall coldly, which made the boss tremble all over. Well, that young man's eyes were so terrible. Anyway, they would pay the bill, so it was better for him to do something else.
After they finished the breakfast, they went to the flower shop. Teresa bought a bunch of carnation, which was a gift for her mother. The yellow and white chrysanthemum was bought by Enrique, and the lily was bought by Albert. Gavin and Harris were about to buy flower too, but they were stopped by Teresa. In fact, they didn't need to spend money for it at all.
In the end, the two men took out two flowers from the flowers in Albert's hands and asked the shop owner to help them pack them up, which made Albert roll his eyes. 'Did they lack money? They stole his flowers!' Brain and Bruce also asked for a small bouquet of babysbreath. They liked babysbreath, and they even pack the flower up by themselves.
They heard from their mother that they were going to visit their mother's mother and their mother's father, their biological grandparents. After buying the flowers, they found a bus station nearby and got on the bus. There were not many people in the bus. They randomly found seats and sat down. The car to the countryside was a little bumpy. Harris and Albert couldn't bear it and felt uncomfortable. However, Gavin and the two children were full of excitement.
After more than an hour, they finally arrived at a small town of N City. The cemetery was located in a small hill near the town. Albert looked a little sad, and so did Teresa. Enrique didn't say anything.
Teresa's parents were buried together. The cemetery was very quiet, and neither of them spoke. Teresa stood in front of the tombstone and put the flowers in her hands in front of it. Then, Albert and Harris also put their flowers in front of the tombstone. The flowers were blooming beautifully, and the cemetery was still wet after the rain.
Teresa looked at the photo on the tombstone. It was a young face with a bright and gentle smile, just like the tenderness of the N City. Her mother was very beautiful, just like that bunch of lily bought by Albert. On another tombstone, there was a young man's face, very handsome. But the photos were black and white. It seemed that they had experienced many vicissitudes of life. Both of them smiled gently.
"Abby, when your mother was still alive, she often told me that if she gave birth to a girl in the future, she would dress up that girl as a little princess and teach her how to behave well. She would watch her grow up slowly. She always said that giving birth to a child was not for the purpose of passing on the family name, but a process of accompanying her. It was family affection. Your mother. She is a very gentle woman." Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
There were stars in Albert's eyes, as if time had returned to the past. Back then, she hadn't met Teresa's father. Back then, she would sit on the lawn with him and always say something that was endless but impossible to achieve.
"Grandpa, grandma, maybe you don't know me. My name is Brain, and I'm my mother's child. I am your grandson."
"I'm Jane."
"Yes, he is my brother."
"I'm not your brother."
The originally sad atmosphere was taken away by the two little guys again. After coming back from the cemetery, they lived in the small town for two days. They strolled N City, and the air here was very good. However, in the end, they had to end their trip quickly because Enrique need to go back to J City.
Brain and Bruce still wanted to play here a little longer. So they two planned to play here again the next time they came here. When Teresa came back to the J City, she was sick and had a high fever. The family doctor came to give her an injection every day. She lost a lot of weight. Albert was worried about Teresa's condition, so he stayed in the Shen Family. It was not the first time anyway. Harris was very happy that there was an old friend with him.
Gavin went back to the Gu Family's villa. He always saw that there were two grandsons around Albert and Harris, so he really missed his granddaughter. Enrique was busy with his work during Teresa's illness.
He was very busy and he went out early and returned late. Harris tried to persuade him not to be too busy, but it didn't work. So Harris had to let him go, but he talked to Enrique seriously that he must take good care of himself. None of them knew what Enrique was busy with until a week later. At that time, Teresa just recovered from a serious illness, leaning against the living room and watching TV wearily.
"This morning, the Jiang Group officially declared bankruptcy and was reported for tax evasion in the past seven years. The heir of the Jiang Group, Henry Jiang, was also exposed by the insiders. He bribed foreign gangsters and raped his sister, Fiona Jiang, in order to achieve the purpose he wanted."
The more Teresa looked at the TV, the more she frowned. Why did the matter happened to Fiona before was suddenly made public? Then, how could Fiona survive in the future? This was unbelievable.
"And it seems that the PL Group, which is on good terms with the Jiang Group, is also affected. Not only is the stock plummeting, but the jewelry sold from their company is also constantly being returned by the public. There are also rumors from some insiders that the police have suspected that PL group used a large amount of money from the company to open up mines without state permission."
The reporter on the TV was standing in front of the gate of the headquarters of the PL Group. But when the camera flashed by a corner, Teresa noticed that a black car was parked there. She knew that the car was Enrique's. Did it have anything to do with Enrique?
She didn't care how Enrique would deal with the people of the PL Group, but she would never forgive him if he suddenly announced to the public that Fiona had been raped before.
