Chapter 1283 Meeting Mason’s Parents
Without a bone marrow donor, Blake didn't need to stay in the hospital as he could
continue taking his medication at the clinic.
So, he was promptly discharged from the hospital the following day.
Although Mason's death still made Olivia feel sorrow and guilt from time to time, her
pregnancy served as a constant reminder that she couldn't allow herself to be consumed
by grief. Moreover, Eugene was always there to console her, which temporarily eased her
sadness.
After Blake was discharged, Olivia insisted on meeting Mason's parents as she felt
insurmountable remorse in her heart.
Although they weren't the ones who killed him, they were well aware that the perpetrator
was likely Blood Rose. Plus, Blood Rose was targeting them. In a way, Mason's death was
indirectly caused by their presence.
That young man was kind-hearted. They couldn't let his parents suffer any further.
She wanted to go, and naturally, Eugene accompanied her. When they arrived there and
met Mason's parents, she would inevitably sob her heart out again. To make matters
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtworse, she wasn't a lone individual any longer, and he was even more concerned about
her well-being.
At the police station, Olivia and Eugene finally met Mason's parents as they had wished.
The couple, in their fifties, appeared worn out with haggard faces and swollen, red eyes.
The woman leaned on the man's shoulder as tears streamed down her face and cascaded
over her nose. The man's eyes were also red-rimmed, but his large hand gently stroked
the woman's hair. His entire being exuded an aura of devastation.
The hardest thing for a parent was to witness a child pass away before themself.
The police were quick to introduce them, saying, "These are Mason's parents."
Both of them raised their heads with lackluster enthusiasm and their inquiring gazes were
directed at Olivia and Eugene.
Olivia took a step forward. "Mrs. Horne, I'm Olivia Maxwell, and this is my boyfriend,
Eugene Nolan. We were friends with Mason."
The woman, who had been trying her best to suppress her emotions, burst into a wail,
"Mason... My child..."
Olivia's throat tightened, and tears fell from her eyes. She gently patted the woman's back
and took a while before she could console her, "Mrs. Horne, please accept my
condolences. The deceased cannot be brought back to life. You need to take care of
yourself."
Eugene had originally intended to talk to Ashton Horne. Nonetheless, when he saw Olivia
doing her level best to cry herself a river, he quickly embraced her and whispered, "Olivia,
please don't cry. Promise me you won't be sad?"
Olivia wiped away her tears and took small breaths as she tried to calm her emotions.
Then, she looked at Melody Jupin. "Mrs. Horne, we were Mason's friends. Now that he's
gone, you can come to us if you ever face any difficulties."
Melody couldn't calm down at all as she wept, "Who could be so heartless to kill my child?
He was so kind and filial. Why did this happen?!"
The tears that Olivia had just managed to stop began flowing once more.
Ashton gently stroked Melody's back. "Stop crying. Your tears won't bring our son back."
The words were heart-wrenching, and even Eugene had to blink back tears. After a while,
he said solemnly, "Mr. and Mrs. Horne, rest assured that we will help investigate Mason's
case. Once we find the perpetrator, that person will be brought to justice."

Ashton wiped away his tears and carefully examined Eugene and Olivia. "You two... Were
you both his classmates?"
Eugene replied, "No. Mason was the bone marrow donor for my son. Unfortunately, he was
killed before the surgery could take place."
Ashton asked, "Your son..."
Eugene said, "He has leukemia."
Ashton nodded, and there was a sense of camaraderie between them as he patted
Eugene's hand. Tears instantly welled up in Ashton's eyes. "In this world, good people
don't get what they deserve."
Eugene said, "Mr. Horne, chin up. The perpetrator not only killed Mason but also shattered
my son's hopes. I won't let that person get away with it."
After that, he took out a card from his pocket and handed it over. "I know that no amount
of words can bring your son back, but please accept this card. I hope it can bring you
some peace of mind."
Ashton didn't accept the card. Instead, he turned his piercing eyes straight at Eugene as
he inquired, "Didn't you say that the surgery hasn't been done?"
