| was not able to keep the boy alive, but at least | was able to do something for him after he died.

Theo nodded and turned around to make a phone call.

The cemetery employee who was registering Sky's burial site did not look surprised when he saw only two

elderly there.

In a workplace like this, they had seen too many deaths and separation, as well as the fickleness of the world.

They were already used to it.

Not long after Theo made a call, the employee from the funeral hcto the cemetery.

The burial process was done together for the two elderly.

Amelia's mother felt a little sorry and hesitated to say something to me.

| comforted her with a smile. "I really like Sky. | just want to see him leave in peace. Don't think too much."

Although this was just a child's funeral, the sky was already dark when it ended.

Amelia's father squatted down in front of the tiny tombstone, his calm face inevitably tinged with sadness.

Amelia's mother raised her hand to wipe the tears from her face, then patted Amelia's father. "Honey, we should

go home. Sky and Amelia are together now. None of them will be lonely anymore."

Amelia's father was a man of few words.

He got up and wiped his face, saying, "It's better this way. Without us there to drag them down, they'll live a

better life on the other side."

After walking out of the cemetery, the elderly couple was too shy to take our car and said they would walk

further down the road to hail a cab.

The cemetery was far from the city, and now that the sky was dark, Theo and | did not feel safe leaving them

here. Hence, we could only persuade them.

The elderly couple was too shy to keep refusing and could only get into the car. They thanked us the whole way.

When the car arrived at their house, Amelia's mother said, "Thanks for bringing us back, Mr. and Mrs. Grant. The

road here is bumpy, so we'll get off here. Thank you for everything you did for us today." Theo wanted to drive

in, but the chassis of the car was not high enough. It would require a lot of effort to drive inside, so he had no

choice but to stop the car and let the elderly couple walk hby themselves.

Theo and | were a little heavy-hearted when we saw the two white-haired elderly walking on the narrow dirt road

hand in hand.

Theo asked, "Have they always lived here?"

| shook my head. "No. | heard that when Anthony becaddicted to gambling, he first used up the savings that

the elderly couple had worked hard their entire lives to save. Then, he gambled away the house that the couple

had prepared for him. Next was their own house, so Amelia later rented a house for them and her son. This is

probably it."

This was one of the most remote districts in Whaldorf City. The entire district was underdeveloped. Houses here

were old, and roads were hard to tread on. The only benefit was the affordable housing prices, so they would at

least have a chance to still stay in Whaldorf City.

Theo looked at the elderly couple who walked farther and farther away. He hesitated to ask, "How long has it

been since Amelia passed away?"

"Maybe three months now."

Theo said, "The houses here collect rent once every three months."

| was stunned. After understanding what he meant by that, | quickly rushed after the couple.

Short-term rental was allowed for houses like these. When Sky was hospitalized, the two seemed to have lived in

the hospital. They then brought Sky away for such a long time, so the rental of this house would have long been

overdue.

The road was filled with mud puddles and different to tread on. Theo heldback and frowned slightly, "This lot «

comes within nobody's jurisdiction."
