Love Coming From The Least Expected novel Chapter 606

I reached out a hand to hold her, but it was already too late. She tumbled forward as she fell down and knocked her forehead against the tombstone. Seeing that, I rushed over to help her up. As I bent down, I noticed the injury on her neck. My gaze darkened, and I lowered my eyes.

“Mom, are you okay?” My voice was full of concern.

“I’m fine.” Mom looked exhausted. She fell onto me weakly as soon as I helped her up. She panted heavily, trying hard to respond to me.

I glanced at Crystal, who was looking around beside us. However, I did not manage to ask her any questions in the end. After all, she was an outsider, so it was inappropriate to tell her everything.

I rolled up my sleeves to clean up the grave with Mom. Then, I put a bouquet of lilies in front of the tombstone.

On the tombstone was a picture of a handsome-looking man. He was smiling brightly, with a hint of mischief in his eyes. It was a charming and attractive smile. Uncle Robert must be famous back then!

I crouched and prayed inside my heart, Uncle Robert, this is my first time here. I’m sorry that I never showed up over the past few years. If you’re watching Mom in heaven now, I hope you can bless her with a happy life. That’s my only wish.

Suddenly, a drop of warm water fell on the back of my hand. I turned around confusedly and noticed that Mom was wiping her tears. She was trying so hard to hold herself back that I could not even hear her sobs.

It was such a heartbreaking scene and tears began to roll down my cheeks uncontrollably. I never understood how much Mom had suffered. Grandma used to tell me that Mom had a hard life, but I could not imagine her pain. Surprisingly, I could sense her agony right at that moment.

“Mom!” I stood up and wrapped my arms around Isabelle. “It’s okay, Mom. Everything will be fine no matter what happens. Don’t be sad. You still have me by your side. I’ll protect you, okay? I’ve grown up now.”
