The cemetery was in the distant suburbs, so it took Bill some time to stop one taxi.
After he told the address, the driver was surprised. "Old Street area? It was slated for demolition 20 years ago. Most of the residents in this area have moved away. Now there are almost no people. Are you sure you want to go there?"
When the driver saw that Bill's dressing did not match the temperament of that erea, he could not help but say a few more words.
Bill nodded. "Yes!"
Hearing that, the driver started the engine.
On the way, Bill's cell phone rang.
He took a look and saw that it was a call from his wife, Lin. He picked it up, "Hello, Lin!"
Lin asked him, "Bill, are you still outside?"
Since they got married, Bill had never concealed his past to her.
Therefore, Lin knew that he had come to sweep Ovia's tomb today. When Bill went out in the morning, he had told her the truth.
"Yes, I just came out of the cemetery. I want to visit an old place!" Bill heard the strangeness in Lin's tone and couldn't help asking, "Lin, what's wrong?"
Lin said, "When are you coming home? I have
something to tell you."
Bill replied in a low voice, "It may be a little late. What is that?"
Lin wanted to say something but stopped on second thought.
What she wanted to say was very important, but it was really inconvenient on the phone. Finally, she weighed it and said, "Forget it. Let's talk about it when you come back!"
"Okay!" Bill nodded.
Hanging up the phone, the driver said, "Sir, it's just ahead!"
Bill put down the phone and looked up.
In his sight, there was an old block with a sense of age.
As early as 20 years ago, when the city was carrying out a new plan, a new commercial development area was selected, so this area was abandoned.
Many buildings looked old and there were very few people and traffic.
Bill said, "Please slow down and drive along the streets!"
The driver replied with a smile, "Okay!"
The taxi slowed down and slowly shuttled back and forth on the streets.
Bill looked out of the window and looked far away, trying to tell where they were.
In the distance, there was a row of five- story commercial buildings. The decoration and appearance were old-fashioned. The windows had been closed, but many signs had not been removed.
Bill was lost in his memories.
After sneaking out of his family, he worked in a small company. It was on the top floor of that building and only two or three hundred squaremeters big. It was the happiest place he had ever lived in because he met Ovia here.
Looking over the apartment building not far away, Bill's chest suddenly tightened.
It was the apartment that they had lived in together.
At that time, he had no money. They could only rent the cheapest apartment with a small salary, but Ovia never disliked him. They lived like a fairy couple. They went to work and went home together.

Hate deception and Abby and Dylan take the cake ,ugh...
NO!!! Tina belongs with Wilson…. Let Dylan and Abby get together...
Wow, once again the villain messes up the true love, Abby needs to go back abroad. And Tina’s true identity as the daughter of Bill Ambrey needs to be exposed! Then the families can “convenience marry” !! Abby is a witch....
Too bad Wilson can’t figure out that his and Tina’s ex’s and his cousin Desmond are conniving creeps!...
Anthea is so stupid, lying and leaving the man who loves her more than life itself. 🤬...
She deserves to be unhappy, being with someone she doesn’t love because of resentment for the exact thing she is doing, hopefully she ends up with no one. Calvin is a wimp and doesn’t love her, just wants a wife to please his family....
So the same basic story as Simon and Addy but stupid Emily is going to marry him! What a hypocrite! Ugh...
Emily gets more stupid every chapter, when did she pickup Calvin as a fiancé!!?? This story line is awful….very sad to do to Simon what she “thought” he had done but didn’t. She is truly a dumb woman. Simon never loved or really even cared for Addy….what the hell is she doing with someone she doesn’t even know or like/love. Awful 😢...
Emily is a fool, don’t let go of the man who truly loves you. Let go of the past, of which he did nothing but help someone who saved his life, and be happy with him… he is your soulmate....
Nothing like cutting off your nose to spite your face Emily. Just stupid! Ugh 😩...
