Chapter 458
It was nighttime. Mark only entered the ward after everyone had left. Ms. Moore''s body had already
been ced in the mortuary refrigerator.
He just sat next to the mortuary refrigerator and stared at Ms. Moore. She appeared to be serene and
calm. However, she would never call him "Mark” or act with a child-like demeanor toward him anymore.
Ms. Moore enjoyed being goofy and childish around Mark. She loved him the most. Ever since he was
young, she would save up all the good food for him. She would only bring them out once he was in
Norwood.
It seemed that she had done it for such a long time that it became a habit. Even when he was over 20
years old, that habit of hers never changed at all.
Every time she opened her mouth to speak, it would always be, "Our dearest Mark." She would always
talk about him. Therefore, none of the servants who worked for her would have no idea that she had a
grandson named Mark.
From now on, there would not be anyone who acted like an old child, whining, goofing around, or
Yet, as long as Mark delighted Ms. Moore with pleasing words, she would be over the moon to the
point where she would forget about everything else. Her face would beam with joy, and she would be in
high spirits.
The most important person in his life had now left him.
Mark extended his hand into the mortuary refrigerator and slowly caressed her face and hands. His
whole body was stiff from him suppressing his emotions. The green veins on the back of his hands
were extremely protruded. Yet, he did not dare to exert any force for fear of hurting her.
He never ever imagined that Ms. Moore would abruptly leave him like that. If he could turn back time,
he would apany her and stay by her side when she was still around.
Suddenly, he thought of something. He moved his hand and took a picture out of his wallet. It was
Charlotte''s picture.
"Didn’t you used to pester for great-grandchildren? This is a picture of your great-granddaughter.
Grandma, your great-granddaughter would be upset that you didn''t buy candies for her..."
It was just that, now, she could not hear anything or see anything...
We always think that someone will stay by our side forever and ever in the beginning. As long as you
look back or turn back, you can see them smiling and looking at you.
However, we always forget that everything in life is impermanent. No one will ever stay at anyone''s
side forever. They will fall sick, feel lonely, and die of old age.
In her whole life, Ms. Moore had never caught a glimpse of her great-granddaughter, whom she had
been pestering Mark about...
"Grandma, listen carefully and remember this, your great-granddaughter''s name is Charlotte, Charlotte
Valentine..."
There was no chance for her to meet Charlotte, or for Charlotte to meet her. That was her biggest
regret and remorse.
Her body was very cold, and she was actually most afraid of being cold. Every wintertime, her hands
and feet would be cold like ice. Last time, she would always keep them warm. Now, Mark wanted to
give her all the warmth, but no matter what, her body would remain cold.
Taking out his phone, Mark subconsciously dialed a number.
It was already two in the morning. Summer was sleeping when her phone’s ringtone woke her up. She
turned over and took her phone. The number shing on the screen was no stranger to her.

Gritting her teeth slightly, she felt that Mark was really crazy. He hadpletely disappeared, so why
would he call her now in the middle of the night, at two in the morning?
"Mark Valentine, are you crazy!" She sounded furious a s she picked up the phone.
There was total silence on the other side of the phone. There was no voice at all. It was so quiet that all
she could hear was his breathing. She could not hear any talking.
She instinctively felt that the atmosphere was not quite right. While she frowned, she softly yelled,"
Mark!"
"Mark Valentine!"
"Mark, speak! If you’re not going to say anything, I’m going to hang up!"
