A Cue for Love novel Chapter 618

Chapter 618 Stopped

Seven days had passed since Melissa’s death.

Thomas attended the funeral but skipped the repast. It seemed as though he hadn’t lost his daughter.

Similarly, Yara pretended as if nothing had happened right after the burial since she was never close to Melissa.

Only Yvonne seemed affected.

She stared at her daughter’s black-and-white photo all day long in tears.

Since it was such an important day, she invited the most respected priests to recite mantras. She was not stingy with the money she spent to mourn her daughter.

Despite so, she was the only person crying in the mourning hall.

After midnight, the priests left the Nichols residence, and silence filled the house.

Yvonne did not turn the lights on and quietly sat on a couch. After the incident, her heart broke. She felt as if she had aged. She was no longer as bright as she had been.

After Thomas left Yeva’s place, he returned home to see Yvonne sitting in a corner like a ghost.

“Why are you sitting there in the dark? Are you trying to scare me?” He tugged on his tie in annoyance.

“You are finally back,” Yvonne croaked. She had cried so much that her voice became hoarse. “Why were you only present at the burial? Where were you this whole time? What do you have at work that is so important you can’t even be there at your own daughter’s funeral? Melissa is watching your every move from wherever she is. How can you be so cruel as a father?”

Turning on the lights, Thomas glanced at his wife in frustration.

“I thought I already told you over the phone. There was a problem at work. I couldn’t leave!”

Yvonne carefully placed Melissa’s photo down and slowly walked toward Thomas.

A woman’s gut feeling tended to be accurate. Since Yvonne had nothing to lose, her intuition was sharper than others.
