“You all think that back then, when Minnie and | went out, it’s my burden to bear because she disappeared while

“Shut up!” Timothy's expression turned icy, his gaze suddenly sharp and cutting. “Say the word ‘die’ one. more

time, and see what happens.”

“Ha... It's been 28 years. Do you honestly think she’s still alive? I'm not surprised my parents couldn't give up.

Minnie was their precious daughter. At their age, they need to hold onto hope just to get through each day.

“But you, Timothy. | can’t believe you still can’t let her go either!”

“We've been married for over 20 years, our son is all grown up, and you're still thinking about her? Isn't that

ridiculous? Isn't that disgusting?”

Timothy's hand cdown sharply, so fast and precise that Nelly didn’t have a chance to dodge. His veins stood

out, his entire body radiating cold fury, and his eyes were filled with a ruthless glint.

“This is your last warning,” he said, his voice low and menacing. “If you don’t have nice things to say, then keep

your mouth shut.”

Without another word, he turned and walked out of the room, not even bothering to change his clothes. Nelly

Aren chuckled, “Your aunt used to sneak out through this door all the time. She thought we didn’t know, but we

The gate was well-hidden, surrounded by the dense follage of bamboo and covered by large leaves, making it

nearly invisible. Fiona smiled as she recalled those memories, her lips curling up in a nostalgic

smile

Aren gazed at the narrow, long alley, which looked much the sas it did in his memories-a slim strip of sky

framed by tall walls, blue and white mingling above.

“Most things have changed around here, but this place seems untouched,” he said.

Sam nodded. “Dad and | bought the three streets surrounding the garden and decided not to develon

If their loved ones ever returned, they wouldn't be lost.

Fiona’s eyes softened with emotion. “Your father has been thoughtful all these years.”

Sam smiled, “While this garden hasn't changed, the street ahead has transformed quite a bit. Since we're here,

why don’t | show you around?”

The elderly couple nodded in agreement.

As they reached the food street, they spotted a long line outside a pastry shop. Fiona squinted her eyes, trying to

get a better look. “Is that... Boulangerie?”

“Yes! It's still the old shop. It’s never moved. Over the years, it's even beca trendy spot for visitors.” “Minnie

always loved their castella, Fiona said, her voice trailing off with fondness.

“Take a seat over here. I'll go stand in line,” Sam suggested.
