“It’s not too late.” Serena shook her head.

Then, the two of them found a place to sit. After thinking about the estrangement between her mother and her family, Serena decided to tell Cole about the diary.

When Cole heard about it, his already reddened eyes grew even redder.

In the cafe, a staff member was mopping the floor when she saw the mature, refined man crying with tears and snot running down his face.

“It’s my fault. I came too late. Lindsay, I came too late!”

Serena handed him a tissue, unsure what to say.

After some time, Cole gradually calmed down. Then, he asked, “Rena, do you blame me? To be honest, your father was in this state because of me. He went too far, you know? Your mother’s death was all because-”

“I know.” Serena cut him off as she stared into his eyes. “Uncle Cole, I know everything.” Hence, she didn’t blame him for what he did.

Cole wiped his face, and clarity returned to his eyes. “Rena, we knew your mother had married. We knew it all along. Initially, your grandparents wanted to come to her wedding even though they didn’t like Donald, since they wanted to support their daughter. However, something unexpected happened. Ever since your grandfather’s generation, our family has emigrated overseas and built our lives there. More than twenty years ago, we offended someone we couldn’t afford to offend, which caused your grandfather to be falsely accused and imprisoned. Then, your grandmother fell gravely ill. At that time, the whole family was in chaos. Your grandfather warned us never to contact your mother, as he was afraid that she would be dragged into the family’s troubles. It was only in the past two years that things finally settled down. Unfortunately, your grandfather’s health became poor after spending twenty years behind bars. Your grandmother was in a vegetative state for twenty years before she finally passed away. After arranging her funeral, we came to find you, yet who would have thought…”

Who would have thought that Lindsay had already been dead?

Cole was filled with regret as he continued, “Rena, I went to your mother’s grave the other day. I hope she doesn’t blame us. We didn’t forget her. We just had no choice.”

Hearing this, Serena sighed at the twists of fate. Still, she wondered what kind of powerful person had the Murphy family offended to make her grandfather endure twenty years in

“Uncle Cole, how is Grandpa now?”

“Not very well.” Cole sighed. “After your grandmother passed, he fell ill and is now bedridden.

In truth, Cole had returned hoping to bring Lindsay back to see their father one last time. Yet, who would have known that Lindsay had already passed away first?

Cole was due to return overseas in the next few days. His younger brother had called to say that their father was often delirious from illness, frequently murmuring Lindsay’s name in his sleep.

Serena sighed softly and asked, “Uncle Cole, what do you need me to do?” She wasn’t sure whether telling her grandfather about her mother’s death would crush the old man in his final days.
