    When There Is Nothing Left But Love Chapter 923


    Never would I have expected that that would be thest time I saw her.


    When we got in the car, Ashton took my hand in his, his warm hand soothed me. I nced sideways at


    him and said weakly, “That kid, I…”


    “You did your best!” He patted me and saidfortingly, “Don’t me yourself. You did what you could,


    so just leave the rest in the hand of fate. The child came and left this world as a pure person, and this is


    probably the best way out for her. that she left. It’s the people who are left behind that suffer the most.”


    Yeah, those left behind without seeing any hope in life are the people who suffer the most.


    Sasha’s parents were already waiting when we arrived at the airport. Their hair had turned white, and


    their faces were now covered with wrinkles and vicissitudes of life since Ist saw them. Looking at the


    two of them made me heartbroken. They had gone through so much suffering and even had to deal


    with the passing of their own child and even their grandchild. Most people could never imagine the


    number of distressing events they had gone through in their lives.

    When they saw us, Sasha’s mother, who probably had cried her tears dry, looked at me with a dry


    smile. “Mrs. Fuller, we’ve troubled you too much. We can never repay your kindness in this lifetime.”


    I shook my head slightly and looked at her. “Mrs. Brooks, don’t overthink this. Come, get in the car!”


    Sasha’s father was not a man of many words. Thus, he remained silent throughout the ride as he


    hugged Renee’s urn tightly. The sight caused tears to well up in my eyes.


    As we headed toward Woodhills Cemetery, I noticed that the couple’s faces were both filled with


    exhaustion, most likely because they had not rested well in a long time.


    I had originally wanted to take them to eat something first, but judging by their expressions, they


    probably could not stomach anything. I sighed softly and gave up that thought.


    Woodhills Cemetery was thergest cemetery in K City, in which a small area ofnd already cost tens


    of thousands. When we arrived, the elderly couple got off the car and walked over to a burial plot that


    they had bought.


    Ashton and I merely followed behind them as they walked. Shane’s gambling addiction had caused the


    family to lose most of their rtives, and since Renee was also ill, the two elderlies were the only


    people present to send Renee off.


    The lonely, empty funeral neither had a stream of peopleing to see Renee off nor any flowers.


    Only the two empty-handed elderly were there.


    Unable to stand it any longer, I looked at Ashton and said, “Can you get the funeral home to send over


    some funeral items for children? It’s Renee’sst journey, so we should let her go happily.”


    Although I did not know if ghosts or gods truly existed in the world, I knew that Sasha’s parents had


    spent all their money just to treat the child’s illness. They wanted to give her the best, but reality forced


    them to bid their farewells in such a miserable way.


    Ashton nodded in reply and walked off to make a call.


    The staff at the cemetery registered Renee’s burial site, he noticed that there were only two elderly


    people and got slightly shocked but did not probe any further. Perhaps he had gotten used to such a


    sight since he was working in a ce full of sorrowful parting. He had seen too many families having to


    part and was used to the ways of the world.


    Soon, the staff at the funeral home had arrived and proceeded with the burial processes and customs.


    Reluctant to let Renee go, Sasha’s mother looked at me with her eyes full of hesitation instead.


    I gave her a slight smile as Iforted her, saying that everything would be fine as long as the child left


    peacefully andfortably.


    Even though the burial was only for a child, the sky had already darkened by the time the funeral


    ended. Sasha’s father squatted in front of the small grave, his face full of pain and destion.


    Sasha’s mother then raised her hand to wipe away the tears in her eyes and said, “My dear, let’s go


    home. Renee will keep Sashapany now. They won’t be lonely!”


    Not good with words, the old man simply wiped away his own tears before he replied, “That’s good. At


    least the mother and the daughter can be together without us being a burden to them. They’ll be able to


    live well.”


    When we left, the elderlies were too embarrassed to take our car back and insisted that they would wait


    for a taxi. However, as the cemetery was far from the city and the sky was already dark, Ashton and I


    did not want to let them wait alone.


    Seeing that we were still keeping thempany while they waited, the elderly couple sheepishly got


    into the car, thanking us the whole way back.


    When we arrived at the urban vige, Sasha’s mother said, “Thank you for sending us back. The


    vige roads are narrow, so it’s not easy to drive in. Thanks so much for today. You can drop us off


    here, and we’ll walk in ourselves.”


    Ashton had originally wanted to drive in, but the car could not squeeze through the road indeed. Thus,


    we could only stop the car and let the couple walk in by themselves.


    As he watched the two white-haired elderly walk down the narrow dirt road, Ashton asked, “Have they


    always lived here?”


    I paused for a moment, then shook my head slightly. “I’m not very sure. I think Joseph mentioned to me


    that Shane had gambled away their house. After that, Sasha rented another house somewhere. I think


    it is probably the one here.”
