Chapter 463


    Mark''s handsome face darkened a little. Without a word, he put his phone into his zer''s pocket.


    Then, h e went ahead and greeted all the guests that came. He was cold and distant, yet polite.


    "Mark, where''s your car key? I’ll borrow it for a while. Mom said that Dad is on the ne now and he’ll


    arrive soon. I’m going to pick him up."


    Mark threw the car keys over and turned around. His gazended on Ms. Moore’s ck and white


    picture. She was smiling at him as usual, and it was as if she had never left before.


    However, some people would eventually leave, and there was no possibility for them to return.

    Ms. Moore''s passing had also impacted Gordon a lot. Both of them had been madly in love with each


    other, and their rtionship had never changed over the years. Now that Ms. Moore had passed on,


    Gordon had also copsed.


    In the afternoon, Ronald arrived with a hurried look o n his face. It looked like he had been in a rush.


    He met Mark’s eyes at once and asked, “Where’s your grandpa?" "Upstairs..." While Mark pursed his


    lips, he spoke in a


    cold voice. "Why have you just arrived?" "I had a few important meetings to attend at Grudin North. I


    couldn''t leave." Ronald rubbed his forehead tiredly. "I just managed to take some time off and


    immediately flew over."


    Hearing this, the coldness on Mark''s face became a bit more intense. There was like ayer of ice


    covering it. "That is not an excuse for your behavior."


    "Mark, Grandma is not around anymore. I know you are in a bad mood and annoyed. But how could


    you speak to your dad in that manner?" Ronald''s square face was filled with awe.


    "Thest time she fell sick, you didn''t even visit her once in Athana. When she came back from Athana,


    you still didn''te to Norwood and visit her. Even at her passing, you arrivedter than the guests.


    Your work in Grudin North managed to keep you busy to such a level. There are 24 hours in a day. Are


    you always busy with work and not sleeping at night?"


    Mark did not bother to look at Ronald’s expression and continued to speak coldly.


    As Yvette approached from behind, she heard everything clearly. She stretched out her hand and


    pulled Mark''s sleeves. "How could you say such words to your dad in front of everyone?"


    "Don''t lecture him. Grandma is already gone, so it’s normal for him to be in a bad mood right now.


    Besides, I did arrivete. That is the reality. Where''s


    Dad?" Ronald looked at Yvette.


    "He''s upstairs. I’ll bring you there."


    Ronald was standing by the window while talking on the phone that night. The room door had been


    locked.


    "What do you want? I''ll bring it back for you when I return from Norwood."


    "You can just buy anything you see. I don’t mind." Thedy''s voice was casual and airy with azy vibe.


    "Okay then, I''ll do that. Just let me know if you have anything that you like. I''ll go and buy it for you."


    It was obvious that thedy showed no interest at all but she casually replied. It was as if she had


    thought o f something, and she said, "Oh, right! I almost forgot to inform you. I''ll be taking a trip to


    France for the next two days."


    "France?" Ronald''s expression changed instantly." Why are you going to France? That’s so sudden.


    What are you going to do in France?"


    "Travel."


    The look on Ronald''s face calmed down a little, and he replied, "How interesting would it be to travel to


    France alone? Just wait for a few more days. Wait till I get back from Norwood, then I''ll go with you."


    "You should just carry on with your business. I''ve already nned things with my friends. The flight will


    be in two days, and we''ll leave then."
