Chapter 1236 - They will always be by your side
At the seaside, Clarence stood there quietly, not knowing what he was thinking.
Nathan walked over, "Mr. Conrad."
Clarence said, "Did you come to see him off for the last time."
Nathan nodded as he looked to the side, where several bouquets of flowers and an empty box sat.
Clarence said, "The ashes are scattered in the sea, he said he came from the sea, so he wanted to go back to the sea."
Nathan retracted his eyes: "Did the youngest master he ...... walked away in pain."
Clarence laughed silently and lightly, "Probably not as painful as when he remembers what he did in the past."
At that, Nathan was slightly surprised, "Did he remember."
Clarence said, "The last time I saw him, he avoided my gaze and should have remembered."
So this time, Justin didn't mention asking them to take care of Grace again.
He kept coughing, maybe trying to say something, but couldn't.
For a long time, Clarence continued: "It's good that he can forget everything in the past and live out these years in peace, remembering before he leaves, which is God's mercy and torture. He should not close his eyes without regret." Nathan didn't know what to say for a moment.
He was silent before saying, "The girl ......"
"I promised him I wouldn't go back on my word."
Nathan knew what to do with it and left with a nod.
On the other hand, Stella and Grace were sitting in the courtyard, looking at the painting under that corner, and Grace opened her big eyes: "Sister, will brother never come back, like grandpa?"
Stella gently stroked her head, "Grace can look up when she misses them, and they will always be there for you."
Clutched in Grace's hand was Justin's piece of watch.
She looked up and saw only heavy snowfall.
Stella followed her line of sight: "Grace, will my sister take you away from here and go live in another place."
Grace shook her head, "I don't want to leave here, and if I do, Grandpa and my brother won't be able to find me when they come back."
Stella said, "But you're all alone..."
Grace got up and pointed to the roots of the tree and the painting in the corner: "Grace is not alone, there are also grandpa and brother here."
With that, she thought of something else, "And Grandma Swift!"
Immediately after, Grace pulled Stella into the house again and pointed out to her, "Brother has left lots and lots of money for Grace, there is still food here that can be eaten for a long, long time, Grace will also cook for herself, sister don't worry about Grace." Nevertheless, Stella was relieved.
But Grace seemed to have made up her mind and said she would not leave.
Not long after, Clarence came back, Stella told him about it, and the two looked at the girl in the corner at the same time, as if she had a world of her own, no outsiders could enter. Clarence said, "She's used to life here, and it would be really hard for her to adapt to a sudden change."
Stella frowned slightly, "But she'll be bullied if she's left here alone."
Clarence withdrew his eyes: "Let's stay here and observe for two days."
Stella nodded her head, that was all that could be done now.
They still stayed at Grandma Swift's house, only this time Grandma Swift said she didn't want any money, and promised to take good care of Grace as long as she was still alive. But Stella doesn't look very well, after all, she's getting older too.
This old and young together, in case they are really bullied, there is no one to help.
But Grace does do what she says she does, she listens to what Justin says, and has a structured, step-by-step life every day.
It looks as if there is nothing wrong with it.
Stella had wanted to observe for two more days, but received a call from City N. Both the little girls, Nian Nian and Yian Nian, had caught a cold and were crying for their mother. Stella was unsure of both ends of the spectrum this time.
At this point, Nathan volunteered to stay behind to handle Justin's follow-up and also to keep an eye on Grace.
Stella said, "But you're not on vacation ......"
Nathan said, "You can take a vacation here, too, and what's more, it's a nice view."
Clarence said, "Listen to him."
There was no extra choice for Stella either, she nodded her head yes right away and went back to City N with Clarence overnight.
Nathan took care of work in S City, and when he returned to the small fishing village two days later, he saw a few more strange men in front of Grace's house.
