Chapter 3248 Box
“This is your dowry. No matter what kind of life you’re living in the future, don’t come back anymore.”
Garret sounded calm while the look in her eyes was dull. The only thing that powered her spirit was her expectation of Mia.
With complicated emotions in her heart, Megan looked at the colorful box, took it over, and opened it.
There were a few pieces of jewelry in the iron box; the design of the necklace and bracelet was very old-fashioned. The bright yellow color of the jewelry was in stark contrast with the battered things around the house.
“You still keep them.” Looking at the jewelry with mixed feelings, Megan bit her lips to hide her emotion.
The jewelry was the dowry that her father had prepared for her before his passing. Their neighbors had been spreading rumors that Garret did not abandon Megan only because she had pocketed the dowry and felt guilty.
Now that the once-missing jewelry had reappeared, Megan could not help but wrap her hands tightly around the box and looked at Garret with soft gaze.
“Thank you.”
It was the first time Megan had thanked Garret in more than ten years. Even she herself found it a little awkward.
“You don’t need to thank me. Just don’t come to see me in the future.”
As an uneducated woman, Garret did not understand Megan’s feelings, so she waved her hand and turned to walk back into her house after speaking.
Looking at her skinny figure, Megan thought of her ending and felt bad.
Hence, she called out to her and reminded her, “Take care of yourself. You must go to the hospital if you feel uncomfortable in the stomach. It’s a very serious disease.”
