The man flipped open his phone of the news, before handing it to her, "Take a look."
Looking at the phone handed over by Lincol, Alina felt her heart was beating even harder, that feeling of unease growing stronger and stronger.
She, who wanted to know the news outside so badly, yet at this moment, was a bit afraid to reach out.
But the next moment, she reached out and picked up his phone, and at a glance, her pupils tightened, it was the news about her funeral.
Caleb held her funeral.
Alina took a deep breath, yet the stuffy weight in her heart could not be suppressed.
The funeral was held.
So, Grandfather must have known about it.
"Mr. Shaw." Alina looked towards Lincol, wanting to know the news of Shirling.
How ironic it was that it was Caleb who had held her funeral.
That man who made her go through all the trouble to escape in the end held her funeral.
Alina thought of the last words Caleb said to her on the boat, he said 'I'll help you get out of Ingford, and we'll write off everything before, okay?' All the unpleasant past matters were left to the wind.
At that time, he said it so seriously, and even withheld it with a prayer.
And she said that she had long since moved on.
She had put it down a long time ago, no matter what Caleb had done to her, everything had been completely put down.
She had let it go when Emma had paid the price for what she had done, and yet in the midst of the whole thing, from the beginning to the end, it seemed that the only one who had let go was herself.
"Your grandfather has passed away."
Alina, "..."
At those words, she fiercely turned back to look at Lincol.
Her pupils tightened, and all her emotions were, at this moment, completely fixed.
The mobile phone was pulled away from her hand. Lincol opened the report related to the old man's passing, after all, Zane was a relatively prestigious old man in Shirling.
Therefore his passing was being reported in a big way over in Shirling at the moment, so naturally Lincol had seen it.
Lincol opened the report page and handed it to Alina, who was already trembling at the moment, as she took the phone that Lincol handed over again.
Her heart was dull and painful.
Looking at the phone that kept trembling, she saw Grandpa's photo, at that moment tears slid down violently.
"He has been in a coma for more than a month, probably because of the matter of your disappearance has failed to be concealed."
Alina, "..."
Tears dripped down on the phone screen.
At this moment Alina looked at the news of her grandfather's passing, and the despair and pain she experienced at this moment was even more intense than what Caleb had given back then.
And who is the one who is now putting it all on her? It was Chester, the man of the Collins family.
What a calamity.
"Grandfather." Softly murmuring, at this moment Alina's tone was pain mixed with hatred.
...
Megan, unable to bear the loss of Zane, did not wake up after passing out again, and the doctor regretfully announced the news.
And Luna was already sobbing uncontrollably.
"Mum."
