Hearing that, Rosalie immediately knew that Levi was confident about the surgery. However, she was
surprised that Kaylie had damaged her hamstring when she was young. She wondered, “Was it an
ident or was it man-made? If it was man-made, who would do such a cruel thing to a woman?”
After consulting Levi in detail about the operation, Connor and Kaylie nned to go back to discuss it
before making a decision.
Rosalie brought them to the Youngblood residence, where lunch had been prepared.
Connor entered the Youngblood residence and looked around. He couldn’t help but click his tongue in
admiration.
On the contrary, Kaylie kept silent. Although she was also looking around, she didn’t make a sound at
all.
However, when Kaylie passed by Jonathan and Rosalie’s bedroom, she suddenly asked, “Can I enter
this room and have a look?”
“Sure,” Rosalie said as she opened the door. “This is my bedroom with Jon.”
Kaylie walked into the room, looked around, and then went to the door connected to the next room.
She raised her hand and gently opened the door.
At once, another room was revealed.
“It’s my old room,” Rosalie said. “That room, though, isn’t used much anymore. It’s just for clothes and
personal items.”
“The design… is pretty good,” Kaylie said somewhat emotionally.
After lunch, Rosalie apanied Connor and Kaylie to walk around the house. When they passed by
the memorial hall, Kaylie’s expression suddenly changed.
“This is…”
“It’s the memorial hall. Jon’s father passed away when he was very young, so at that time, Jon’s
grandfather built a memorial hall here to put up his father’s photo. I guess it’s a way of hoping that the
dead rest in peace and giving the living a ce to think about them. Jones here to pay his
respects when he misses his father.”
Kaylie’s body trembled slightly. Only Connor, who was holding her hand, could feel her trembling.
Connor couldn’t help but hold Kaylie’s hand tighter and said, “I think we’ve had a long day. Why don’t
we go back to the hotel and get some rest first?”
Kaylie’s eyes were still fixed on the memorial hall. In a quavering voice, she asked, “Rosalie, can you
take us in… to have a look? Since we came to the Youngblood residence today, I think your mentor
and I should pay our respect to Jonathan’s father.”

Rosalie hesitated for a moment. “But…”
“Rosalie, I see you’re doing so well now, so I want to pay my respects to Jonathan’s father. After all,
you know that Connor and I have no children. I’ve treated you like my child all these years, and it’s only
right to honor your father-inw!” Kaylie said.
“All right, then.” Rosalie walked into the memorial hall with them. Outside, there was a photo of
Jonathan’s father Lucian on the wall.
No one would have thought that such a gentle and elegant person like Lucian would die miserably on
the roadside.
As soon as Connor and Kaylie entered the memorial hall, they looked at the huge ck-and-white
photo in a daze.
After a long time, Connor murmured, “It’s really a pity that he died young.”
A touch of pain shed across Kaylie’s eyes. Finally, she gently lowered her head and followed Rosalie
inside.
Inside, there was a photo of Lucian and Leonard.
When Kaylie saw the two photos, her eyes turned red. She said anxiously, “I-I’ll light up the candles!”

Then Kaylie picked up the unused candle that had been ced in front of the photo and lit it.
Connor nced at Connor and lit another candle.
“Are you okay, Mrs. Smuckler?” Rosalie asked upon noticing Kaylie’s red eyes.
“I’m fine. I just think it’s unfortunate that your father-inw died at such a young age,” Kaylie mumbled.
“My father-inw just loved my mother-inw too much, and having lost the one he loved, he had no
more will to live, and perhaps death, for him, was a relief.” Rosalie sighed and thought, “It’s just… he
has left all the pain to the living.”
“How… How did he die?” Kaylie asked.
“He died from the cold on the side of the road. At that time, Jon returned to the Youngblood residence
with his ashes,” Rosalie replied.
Kaylie’s face turned pale and her body shook a little.
Connor hurriedly held her and asked, “What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”
“A little. I want to go back to the hotel and get some rest first,” Kaylie said.
“Then I’ll ask the driver to send you back to the hotel,” Rosalie said. Then they walked out of the
memorial hall.
When Connor and Kaylie returned to the hotel, Kaylie couldn’t stop herself and began crying.
Connor sighed. It was the first time he had seen what Lucian looked like.
Lucian, once poised to be the favored son and heir to the entire fortune of the Youngblood family,
standing at the pinnacle of power and wealth in Strico, had now departed from this world.
“It’s all my fault!” Kaylie sobbed, unable to suppress the pain any longer. “I did this to Lucian. If I hadn’t
left at that time, Lucian wouldn’t have died! I killed him!”
Connor didn’t know how tofort her. He could only pat her on the shoulder gently.
“Lucian died from the cold… A man like him ended up freezing to death. Connor, I never thought that
he would freeze to death!” Kaylie cried.
Kaylie had been specting about the cause of Lucian’s death all these years, but she didn’t expect it
to be that.
“It’s all my fault! If I hadn’t left Lucian and Jonathan, Lucian wouldn’t have made this choice. I lost my
mind. I was inhuman!” Kaylie kept beating herself in the chest. Her well-made face was full of tears at
that moment.
“If Lucian’s in heaven and knows you’re so sorry, he’ll forgive you,” Connor said.
“No, he won’t. Lucian won’t forgive me…” Kaylie said bitterly.
In the past, Kaylie had thought that she would never return to Strico and step into the Youngblood
residence again.
However, when Kaylie knew that Jonathan was Rosalie’s husband, and Jennifer who had called her
Grandma for more than two years was actually her granddaughter rted to her by blood, Kaylie
couldn’t suppress the desire in her heart.
