Chapter 64


    His brow was slightly furrowed, but he didnt sweat it pressing on


    Dand followed behind, looking like he might keel over any minute and take a tumble into the nearby


    field. The field was full of rice paddies, all filed with water if he slipped, he’d be a mess of mud, and it


    wouldn’t be a pretty sight


    David’s shaky gat was because the man in front of him was a veteran Lysander had been trained in


    bnce, while David was just a regr office drone


    Naturally his bnce wasn’t as good as Lysander’s.


    Soon, he was left behind by Lysander


    Lysander headed towards the cemetery, while David was still struggling on the narrow path


    Over here, after paying their respects. Evelyn and Astrid took the four kids to pick reeds in the dried up


    pond, keeping the kids entertained

    The reeds were tall,pletely hiding them once they went in.


    At the graves, only Thssa and Isabe were left.


    Thssa was tidying up the ce


    Isabe couldn’t be bothered to lift a finger, she just sat on a cushion off to the side, catching some Zs


    Lysander walked over, his gaze falling on Thssa first. His eyes were slightly cold, questioning.


    Thssa, what are you doing here?”


    His voice was deep and pleasant, sounding unreal in the openness of the outdoors.


    Thssa thought she misheard. She was bent over cleaning, and when she looked up, her eyes met


    the unwrinkled legs of his trousers. She followed the


    line up


    She looked up to see a man, dressed to the nines with an air of elegance, standing in front of her His


    features were sharp, his eyes deep, hisshes long. and his lips sensual.


    In this rustic setting, his handsomeness and elegance were like a god walking among mortals


    Thssa’s heart raced when she first saw him, stunned by his good looks.


    The next moment, she hastily stood up, her eyes wide in surprise, stuttering, “Mr Sinir, what are you


    doing here?”


    Shouldnt he be at Starhaven, in the top office of the Sinir Group?


    How did he end up in this backwater ce?


    Lysander approached her, answering, “Paying homage.”


    “Mr. Sinir, you’re here! Isabe woke up with a start at the sound of his voice. Upon seeing


    Lysander, her heart fluttered. She quickly got up and walked over to him with ttery.


    How could we trouble you toe all the way out here?” She quickly brought over the cushion she had


    been napping on and ced it under Lysanders feet so he wouldn’t dirty his shoes


    Seeing Isabe’s ingratiating smile, Thssa rolled her eyes inwardly.


    Isabe’s ttery was showing


    Lysander nced at the cushion at his feet, his brow furrowed, clearly displeased.


    He didn’t stand on the cushion but walked around it to the grassy area nearby


    There were several graves here all lined up, with a monument in front of each one


    Behind the graves were willow trees, their branches hanging low partially shading the graves like


    umbres.


    Lysanders eyes swept over them,nding on the name Celia on one of the monuments


    The monument looked very cl like someone had just tidied it up, and there were some offerings in front


    of it.


    He had assumed there would be a picture of Celia on the monument, but to his surprise, there was only


    a name.


    He looked at the other monuments, they were all the same


    It seemed that in Hollowbrook tradition, pictures of the deceased were not ced on the monuments.


    Isabe noticed that Lysander didn’t step on the cushion she hadid out, but she didn’t feel awkward.


    She smiled and said, “Mr Sinir, this is my cousin C’s grave You can pay your respects to her”


    Thssa was curious about the connection between Lysander and Celia. Why had hee to mourn


    her?


    She stepped forward to ask, “Mr. Sinir, I’m very grateful that you’vee to mourn my cousin, but I


    want to know why you’vee to mourn her. Did you know her?”
