Chapter 648
Granny did not finish her last sentence. Her eyes and mouth were still open, but she was no longer breathing.
Serenity stared at Granny blankly. Tears rolled down her cheeks.
The doctors and nurses certified Granny’s time of death and told Serenity, “Our condolences, Ms. Lewis.”
Condolences. The only family she had who loved her was no longer alive.
Serenity let out a wail and cried next to her grandmother’s body, which was still warm.
Granny’s body was still warm, but she was no longer breathing and her heart was no longer beating. From now on… Serenity could no longer hear her grandmother’s voice, no longer see her grandmother’s smile
Jackson stood quietly by Serenity’s side as she cried.
He knew that she needed time to grieve. Granny had always been Serenity’s spiritual pillar. She was the one who protected Serenity after Serenity lost her mother.
From now on, Serenity would never see her again.
He understood the pain of losing a loved one. His father froze to death in front of his eyes. At that moment, he felt as if loneliness was the only thing left in the world.
Even though he returned to the Valor family afterwards, he never felt a sense of belonging there.
But maybe death was a relief for his father. His father simply loved his mother too much. After losing her, living was painful
for him.
However, he forgot that he still had a son. He gave all his love to that woman. The only thing he left for his son was a suicide. note. In the suicide note, he told Jackson about his real identity and his wish that Jackson would return to the Valor family.
Serenity cried for a long time. She cried for so long that her tears dried up, leaving only dry howls and cholding sobs.
“Serenity, let your grandmother go in peace,” Jackson finally spoke.
Serenity sobbed, her eyes red and swollen. “Yes, it’s time to let Granny… go in peace…” she said. She lovingly moved her hand over her grandmother’s face and closed her grandmother’s eyes and mouth.
“Granny loved me,” she mumbled.
“I know,” he said. He gently pulled her into his embrace. “You still have me. I’ll love and protect you more than anyone else in the world, so don’t cry, okay?”
Seeing her red and swollen eyes, his heart ached.
If he could, he would trade anything to prevent her from shedding tears. However, he could not do that.
“Your tears make me feel as if even breathing hurts,” Jackson lowered his head and gently kissed Serenity’s red and swollen
eyes.
Don’t cry anymore. He would heal her pain
No matter how long it would take for her pain to stop, he would be by her side. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
He would protect her and keep her safe forever like he promised.
