Chapter 489
“Hey, come and see if there is anything wrong. Your mother loves cleaning the most. She will get angry with me if I don’t tidy her up,” Peter responded, beckoning her.
Gale nodded again and again. “It looks good.”
Peter smiled when he heard that, and tears fell down his face.
She also cried fiercely.
The mortuary was gloomy and quiet. Seeing no one around, Peter whispered, “Gale, now that things have come to an end, you should plan for yourself. Your mother is
gone, so you don’t have to worry about it anymore. I am your only burden.”
“Dad, Mom is gone. I only have you as my family. How can I leave you?”
“You still have your children!”
Gale lowered her head, looking at her lower abdomen.
Peter held her hand tightly and said, “The next generation is the hope. The most important thing now is you and the child.”
“I can’t leave you alone, Dad.”
Peter was a little anxious. “I mean, you think about yourself first. Didn’t you say that you have a chance to leave? Then, you must go!”
Gale asked, “What about you?”
“I stay in Sea City.”
“But…”
“I can take care of myself. As long as you can start a new life, I will be at ease.
Gale wanted to say something, but Peter turned his back and sighed.
“I know you want to take your mother and me to go. But it’s too difficult, and we will easily drag you down. At that time, no one will be able to leave. I’m the only one now, and I’ll stay here,” Peter said.
“Sea City takes care of the elderly well, I have nothing to do to sweep your mother’s tomb and accompany her, and the days will go by like this.”
Gale lowered her head and said, “Dad, but as soon as I leave, if Shawn came to look for you, what would you do?”
She had seen Shawn’s possessiveness and paranoia before.
