No 1 Supreme Warrior novel Chapter 804

Forrest dropped Leo and Caroline off at the former Henderson’s house and left.

This was brought up by Caroline and when Leo asked where she wanted to stay for the night, Caroline refused the hotel and ended up saying her former home.

It is the Henderson family.

The Henderson family is now unoccupied; there used to be three other people living there, her, William and Rebecca, and relative would come and stay for a few days from time to time, and the house was lively.

But with the collapse of the talks on the 880 million sponsorship fee share between the Henderson family and the L Group, these relatives grew apart and broke off contact over time.

The truth is that any relationship can hardly stand the test, and once money is involved, even the closest relatives can turn against each other.

Caroline still had the key to the place and with a click, she opened the iron door at the entrance.

The yard is overgrown, barren and lifeless.

Leo and Caroline both watched the scene in awe, sighing in their hearts.

They hadn't actually been away from the home for long, but it looked as desolate and cold as if no one had lived there for three or four years.

"You don't look like you're in a very good mood."

Leo said with a smile as he surveyed the side of Caroline's face.

Caroline did not answer immediately, but just looked out at the weeds in the yard.

Her eyes are sad and her face is even more faintly sad.

It took a long time before she came back to her senses and forced out a smile, "I was just wondering, obviously six months ago, this small courtyard was full of life, why is it now so dead and dull?"

"Because the people are gone."

Leo replied calmly, "People will bring laughter, when people are gone, nothing is left."

Leo does not know from when the laughter in this courtyard gradually began to decrease, it may be when he came back, or it may be when he and Rebecca turned against each other.

But there was one thing Leo could be sure of, there was no going back.

"This is a potted plant that my mother used to plant here and it's all wilted."

Caroline didn't care if the ground was dirty, she sat directly on the weeds, plucking at the surrounding earth and wood, and said leisurely.

"There used to be slides here, my mum bought them for me, then I got older and my mum threw them away, guess why? I grew up and got heavier, once I went to play on the slide after school and accidentally collapsed the slide, hahaha ----"

Caroline let out a loud laugh, as if she had told a very funny joke.

However, Leo did not smile and remained standing beside Caroline, his gaze calmly looking at her.

Caroline did not feel embarrassed, continued, "My mother used to hate you, after you disappeared, my mother would come to the courtyard to curse when she had nothing to do, 'fortunately you are gone, or I will be delayed' and so on. I would secretly watch her from behind, at that time I saw gray hair on her head for the first time. I had the impression that my mother was beautiful when she was young, with dark, shiny hair, and never had gray hair ......"

"......"

Leo remained silent, just looking at her with his eyes downcast.

"Dad is remarried now, and Summer is very nice and gentle, but I always felt that Summer and I couldn't be as close to each other as I was to my mother. No matter how good she is to me, Summer is just a Godmother, not the real mother who gave birth to me and brought me up."

Caroline's voice finally took on a bit of a sobbing tone.

As soon as she turned her head, her eyes were red and swollen from crying.

"Leo, I miss my mum ----"
