Chapter 3248 Box
“This is your dowry. No matter what kind of life you’re living in the future, don’t come back anymore.”
Garret sounded calm while the look in her eyes was dull. The only thing that powered her spirit was her
expectation of Mia.
With complicated emotions in her heart, Megan looked at the colorful box, took it over, and opened it.
There were a few pieces of jewelry in the iron box; the design of the necklace and bracelet was very
old-fashioned. The bright yellow color of the jewelry was in stark contrast with the battered things
around the house.
“You still keep them.” Looking at the jewelry with mixed feelings, Megan bit her lips to hide her emotion.
The jewelry was the dowry that her father had prepared for her before his passing. Their neighbors had
been spreading rumors that Garret did not abandon Megan only because she had pocketed the dowry
and felt guilty.
Now that the once-missing jewelry had reappeared, Megan could not help but wrap her hands tightly
around the box and looked at Garret with soft gaze.
“Thank you.”
It was the first time Megan had thanked Garret in more than ten years. Even she herself found it a little
awkward.
“You don’t need to thank me. Just don’t come to see me in the future.”
As an uneducated woman, Garret did not understand Megan’s feelings, so she waved her hand and
turned to walk back into her house after speaking.
Looking at her skinny figure, Megan thought of her ending and felt bad.
Hence, she called out to her and reminded her, “Take care of yourself. You must go to the hospital if
you feel uncomfortable in the stomach. It’s a very serious disease.” Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.
Garret had died of stomach cancer in the past life. Megan was emotional but did not say more as she
did not want to alter others’ destinies.
Looking at Garret with sympathy, she waved her hand and finally left the village that she had lived for
more than ten years.
The village had beautiful scenery, clear water, and blue sky, but the road was rugged. Throughout the
journey, Jake and Megan barely spoke to each other, seemingly having something on their own mind.
“What’s wrong? Are you still thinking about the eldest daughter of Gertha?” Megan looked at Jake and
teased him as she did not want to dwell on the heavy stuff.
“You’re thinking too much. And you talk too much too. After you die, you’ll still become a
blabbermouth,” replied Jake meanly as he glanced at her in displeasure.
Not really wanting to talk nonsense with him, Megan checked the time on her phone and looked up at
the sky before she changed the subject. “I think we’ll be there in thirty minutes.”
“It doesn’t bother me. Aren’t you nervous, though?” Jake tried to sound her out.
“Not at all.” It was impossible that she did not panic. It was just that she had not completely recovered
from what happened at Garret’s house earlier.
After seeing that Megan did not feign it, Jake looked away boringly. Then, he stole glances at the iron
box that Megan had been holding and got curious.
“You’ve refused to tell me what it is that you’re holding. You still don’t want to tell me now, do you?”
Jake had been asking about it the whole time, leaving Megan annoyed. Gripping the box tightly in her
hand, Megan did not want to open it at all.
“Don’t ask. We’re almost there. Just mind your own business.”
Then, Megan walked faster to be in front of Jake.
Well, I’m not gonna tell him. I won’t put myself in a tight spot.
