He knew that the others were worried that he was too caught up in his grief.
The Heaths threw away all of Mia's belongings, burned all of her photos, and erased all traces of Mia's existence. They believed that this way he could forget about Mia and start over.
However, it still didn't stop him missing Mia any little bit.
They could burn the photos, and even Cecelia had never seen a photo of Mia.
However, the memory could not be erased. Decades of years passed, and Mia's face was still deep in his bones and blood, which could not be burned and destroyed, and could never be forgotten.
Moreover, none of them knew that he had actually been secretly hiding a photo.
He stood up and walked to the empty wall opposite the recliner.
People always thought that he liked to stare at the wall, but in fact it was not true.
He removed the antique clock from the wall and opened the back cover of the clock, which hid an old yellowing photo. He took out his most precious treasure and held it in his hand.
This was Mia's photo.
He wasn't gawking at the empty wall, but the antique clock in the wall had been hiding something he had cherished all his life!
His entire body sank into the recliner, his pale eyes staring straight at the photo in his hands.
They just looked the same!
"No, Mom, I'm going to Skymall today to get supplies for the venue." Charlotte said back.
"When I was at home this afternoon, your grandfather had never come back. Now he doesn’t answer my call, so I guess he accidentally set it on mute again." Cecelia said with a headache.
"Do you need me to hurry back and check it out? I'll be home in about an hour and a half." Charlotte was actually in the neighborhood and could be home in a few minutes, but since she had lied earlier and said she was still in Skymall, it was a long way from Skymall to the Heath residence, and it was rush hour, so it would take a long time to get there.
"Oh, it's okay. I just wanted to let you know that dinner is ready in the kitchen. Your grandfather should eat on his own when he saw it. I just am just worried; I don't know if he went back or not. After you go back, tell grandpa to go to bed early. I'm in a hurry and I've left home. I have to go to the Capital and will be back in the morning." Cecelia said carefully.
"Yes, Mom. is something wrong in the Capital?" Charlotte froze and wondered if something was going on at home, as Cecelia was always running to the Capital lately and Ralph hadn't been back to Khebury for a long time.
"It's nothing important. Don't you worry." Cecelia soothed, "I need to go now. Take care of yourself."

The readers' comments on the novel: Wrong marriage and sweet love (Joyce and Luther)
Why has all the names changed from english name to Chinese, It’s difficult to understand who is who...
If this is the ending of this story the story then I wish I hadn’t started reading it doesn’t even end right has not closure. To bad these writers don’t put much into their endings....
When will the new chapters come I can't wait any longer...
Very strange ending, is Joyce pregnant again or does she still have remnants of the devil with her. Christian should have apologized and made up with Luther and Felix. Too much violence and twists and turns, once settled, everyone should be happy and healthy....
Omg… can’t you just let Luther and Joyce live in peace with their children….another controversy doesn’t add to the story....
Not again, ugh … just get rid of this disgusting despicable woman...
Hopefully the underground bio lab East523will be found soon and Luther will make a full recovery, Lily will be reunited with the family and all will be good. Otherwise this will be a very disappointing story....
Please don’t make more trouble for Joyce and Luther, they need to have their children and be happy...
Looking forward to Joyce shooting Otis where it will hurt him the most and end his disgusting ways with women. He’s a pig, deserves to lose his “unit”....
Just tell him you’re the one that saved him , not the evil woman and find your beautiful love story together. Quit being a wet blanket, too smart for that....
