    “Henry?” Natalie frowned and repeated the name.


    “Who is Henry?”


    Linda raised her eyebrows and said, “Don’t you know Henry?” Linda’s big eyes were fixed on Natalie


    as if she didn’t want to let go of any subtle expression on Natalie’s face.


    “I have never heard the name…”


    Natalie’s eyes were innocent, and her face was calm and puzzled. “Who is Henry?”


    She looked at Linda and their eyes met. Of course, Natalie knew that Linda didn’t believe it. But after


    all, she had been with Niki for so long.


    Niki had influenced her a lot.


    She had gotten Niki’s skills.


    It was easy for Natalie to deal with Linda.


    “Mrs. Graham, why are you looking at me in this way? Does Henry mean a lot to you?” Her eyshes


    trembled lightly and her tone was also curious.


    Linda stared at Natalie, but she didn’t find anything wrong. She slowly withdrew her gaze.


    She sighed.


    “Well, forget it.”


    Linda was unwilling to say more. Natalie didn’t force her. Instead, Natalie changed the topic. “Mrs.


    Graham, it’s gettingte too. You’d better go back now.”


    Linda’s thoughts had drifted away. When she heard Natalie’s voice, she only roughly turned to look.


    outside. The sun was setting in the west, and it was indeed gettingte.


    Linda turned her gaze back and lowered her head without speaking.


    Natalie clenched the pin and held it behind while Linda’s mind was wandering. Then Natalie asked,


    “Mrs. Graham.”


    Linda regained consciousness.


    “Wana, what did you just say?”


    Natalie frowned and wondered what Linda was thinking. Did she think of Henry?


    Henry passed away so long… Now she finally missed him.


    Natalie frowned and repeated, “It’s gettingte. You’d better go back now.”


    Linda looked confused. She shook her head repeatedly, “Nana, I feel something wrong.”


    “What’s wrong?”


    “Show me this pin please…” Linda said and leaned towards Natalie’s hand, wanting to take the pin


    directly.


    But she couldn’t touch the pin after groping for a long time.


    Natalie looked expressionless at Linda’s movements.


    Linda’s hands, due to proper maintenance, were delicate and fair. When Linda’s hand touched hers, it


    felt like she was touched by a cold ice block.


    It reminded Natalie of Julian. She felt a wave of disgust in her heart and straightly withdrew her


    hand.


    “Nana, where’s it?” Linda kept searching.


    “Mrs. Graham, it’s really gettingte. You’d better leave now.” Natalie unconsciously stepped back.


    “I want to take another look. Can you show it to me?” Linda pleaded. Natalie could see a hint of


    despair in her eyes.


    Natalie couldn’t bear such a gaze.


    She felt depressed at it.


    Nataliepromised. This pin was indeed Linda’s son’s… Linda did have the right to see it.


    Thinking of this, Natalie slowly extended her hand back, wanting to take out the pin. But halfway


    through, she suddenly had an idea, “Mrs. Graham, I will show it to you. Can you stand up now?”


    Linda was unwilling to stand up. “Nana, I’m sorry to you, and so is the Graham family. I should have


    knelt down. Well, you are the one that should get up.”


    Natalie frowned and said seriously, “If you don’t get up, I won’t take it out.”


    Linda raised her eyes.


    Natalie was firm.


    Linda hesitated for a while and stammered, “Fine.”


    Natalie felt happy. She was going to stand up and help Linda up from the ground.


    But due to kneeling on the ground for too long, Natalie’s legs had be somewhat stiff. She


    couldn’t stand up.


    Upon seeing this, Hugh immediately came to help Natalie.


    Natalie shook her head and said, “Don’t worry about me. Help Mrs. Graham up.”


    Linda had been standing longer than her. Linda’s condition would be worse.


    Hugh didn’t follow Natalie’s order.


    He still tried to help Natalie up.


    Natalie frowned, saying, “Hugh, help Mrs. Graham up. I can do it myself. Don’t worry about me.”


    Hugh didn’t change his mind.


    Natalie looked at him. After seeing Hugh’s calm but exceptionally firm gaze, she sighed. “Fine, help


    me up first.”


    Although she was Hugh’s boss, Natalie knew that Hugh was stubborn and it was not easy for her


    to change his mind.


    With his help, she sat on the sofa, bending down to rub her calf.


    On the other side, Linda was also helped up by Hugh. She sat next to Natalie as if she had not felt


    any pain at all.


    She spoke to Natalie, “Nana, can you show me it now?”


    Natalie nodded, took out the pin, and handed it to Linda.


    Linda held the pin trembling. Before she could hold it firmly, her eyes were full of tears. “This pin….


    is exactly the same as Henry’s…”


    After saying this, Linda seemed unable to hold back any longer. Tears welled up, and her heart ached.


    The emotions that had been suppressed for many years seemed to burst out at this moment. She


    couldn’t suppress the longing for her son anymore…


    Natalie looked at Linda, who was losing control of her emotions. Her eyshes trembled lightly and


    she slowly held Linda in her arms.


    Natalie said in her heart, “Henry… It turns out that I am not the only one to remember you.”


    “Your family is also remembering you.”


    Natalie hugged Linda, patting her back. Linda’s hysterical cries lingered in her ears.


    Natalie thought, “Henry, you gave it to me during the snow that year.”


    Natalie still vividly remembered that snowy day, when the snow was particrly heavy, fluttering in


    the air.


    That was the first snow she saw abroad. She had once thought she might be lonely. But unexpectedly,


    she was apanied by a man who loved her.


    After some time, Linda’s crying finally stopped.


    She slowly sat up from Natalie’s arms and wiped her tears. “I lost control,” she said.


    “My son Henry once had one… His grandmother gave it to him. It was nearly a family heirloom.”


    “His grandma told him at that time that he could give it to the girl he loved most.”


    Natalie was stunned and muttered, “Is it a family heirloom?”


    Her gaze was fixed on the pin, only feeling her mind buzzing.


    “Yes, this pin is a heirloom of the Graham family. Unfortunately, there is only one pin, and it was given


    to Henry. Julian doesn’t have one.”


    “At that time, Julian also wanted it. He had been angry with Henry for a long time because of this pin!”


    Linda said with a smile. The old scene came to her mind.


    Natalie was stunned. Henry gave the pin to her at their third meeting.


    At that time, they were unfamiliar.


    At that time, it snowed heavily. The two met by chance. When Natalie epted this gift, she thought it


    was just an ordinary one. That was why she took it.


    It turned out that Henry gave her such an important and meaningful present on their third chance


    meeting.
