Grace was startled. Zachary had guessed what she was thinking.
Indeed, she hadn't thought about asking for his help in the future. Their relationship was not that deep after all. She thought that it would be better if she caused him less trouble in the future.
However, Zachary's words had surprised Grace.
"I know you are together with Heinz now and you also have children," Zachary spoke again.
Grace was shocked again. "Zachary, do you read the gossip magazines too?"
"I don't bother about the rest, but I read a little about yours," Zachary explained. "It was a coincidence that I know about this."
It was amazing that he knew so much.
Grace was shocked.
Zachary said, "You don't have to feel like we are strangers if you need to ask for my help. The regrets from the previous generation are enough to lament.
Grace felt touched. She nodded her head and held Grandma's urn firmly.
"Let's go. Get in the car."
"Okay!" Alice and Jensen came out as soon as the two of them got in the car.
Jensen fetched Alice while Zachary fetched Grace
as they went to store the ashes.
It was not until Grace realized that the place was only two houses away from the Smith Family's house that she realized that it was indeed near.
The villa was much bigger than the Smith Family's villa.
There were even guards stationed at the entrance upon entering the place.
Grace carried the ashes and got out of the car. Before she even got out, she heard someone calling for her.
"Miss Grace! Miss Alice!" They heard a familiar voice.
Grace and Alice turned around at the same time and saw Loraine, who was the previous servant in the Smith Family's villa, running towards them.
Both Grace and Alice were shocked.
Why was Loraine here?
Zachary explained, "Marry sent some people away. I happened to lack servants here, so I asked Loraine and her husband for their help. Loraine kept this place well."
"It's rare to find a nice person like Mr. Lowe. He fed us when we were at our lowest." Loraine looked at Zachary, full of gratitude.
Grace could see that Loraine was truly thankful for Zachary.
She felt rather grateful as well.
Loraine was a hardworking servant at home. It was really unfair for her to be driven out by Marry.
"Miss Grace, Miss Alice, how have you two been these years?" Loraine came forward with tears in her eyes.
"We're doing fine, Loraine." Grace felt tears welling up in her eyes too.
"Loraine, let's go in first," Zachary spoke at the right time. "Have you cleaned up the place that I've asked you to?"
"Yes, Mr. Lowe." Loraine quickly wiped her tears and said, "Please come in."
As soon as they entered the door, Zachary pointed at the highest position in the hall and said, "Grace, you can put Grandma's ashes here."
Grace placed the ashes gently on top, while Loraine took out a photo and put it in front of the urn.
Zachary stood in front of the photo, knelt in front of the ashes and the photo, and bowed deeply.
At this moment, Grace and Alice did the same and knelt.
