Chapter 313 You Can Find Me at the Mccarthy’s
After listening to his explanation, Ruby did not say anything more, but only said, "Thank you, I
understand what you just said, I will be careful."
Seeing this, Eden gently breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, "That's good, then ...... if there's nothing
else, I'll leave first."
Ruby nodded.
When he reached the door, Eden hesitated, but finally stopped and turned towards her, his eyes full of
gentleness.
"Ruby." He did not call her "Miss Harold" again.
Ruby twitched her eyebrows, "What's wrong?"
"In the future, if you need help, you can come to me, and both I and the Mccarthy family will do our best
to help you."
At these words, Ruby fell into a trance, and after a few moments, she did not refuse his kindness and
nodded gently, "Okay."
After that, Eden left, satisfied.
Levi watched from the side, the corners of his mouth lightly hooked as he raised his hand to rub her
hair, "You accept this?"
Ruby blinked, "It is okay, the previous generation's affairs have nothing to do with us young
generation."
Later on, a number of people came to offer their condolences, and Ruby treated them all with courtesy
and thanked them for coming to see her grandmother off for the last time.
When the old lady's funeral was all done, the twilight was slanting and she stood in front of her
tombstone, inexplicably in a trance-like state.
Everything that had happened in the last few days had been like a dream.
How she wished that when she woke up from her dream, her grandmother would still be healthy and
well and by her side.
But she knew that this was no longer possible.
Grandma was gone, forever.
"Grandma, I buried you next to Grandpa as you wished, and I don't know if you've seen him now, I'm
sure you're very happy now."
She murmured, her delicate face slightly pale from the past few busy days, faint dark circles tinge
covering her eyes.
With that, she glanced sideways and dropped her eyes on Logan's tombstone, looking at a picture of
him in his youthful, heroic days.
"Grandpa, Grandma has gone to look for you, I hope you can take care of her. She has been missing
you all these years, I guess you miss Grandma too, now you can finally be reunited, although I am
reluctant, I am happy for you, and please don't worry, I will take care of myself."
Levi stood right beside her, looking sideways at her deeply for a moment, then turned his head, his
dark eyes looking towards the old lady and Logan's tombstone.
"Grandma, don't worry, with me by your side, I will not let her suffer one bit, from now on. She and
Olivia are under my care."
As he said that, he looked puzzled and said with a sideways glance, "Grandpa, it is my first time to see
you, I am Levi, your grandson-in-law, Grandma is in your hands, I hope you and Grandma will be well
in the other world."
At these words, the deepest chord in Ruby's heart was plucked silently.
Her eyelids fluttered slightly and she lifted them lightly, looking towards him with complicated eyes, but
a warm current slid through them.
"What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?" Levi tilted his head, catching her gaze just in
time, and asked with a raised eyebrow.
Ruby didn't answer, averted her eyes and whispered, "Let's go."
Levi gently pulled the corner of his mouth, did not pursue the question, took her hand.
Ruby struggled twice, but failed, so she simply allowed him to do so.
The two walked down the stone steps and made their way down the hill.
By the time they reached the foot of the mountain, the twilight was more intense, with the sunset
staining most of the sky red and the clouds deep orange.
Ruby stopped abruptly and looked back up the hill, long gone were the tombstones of her grandfather
and grandmother.
Her clear eyes seemed to be dyed red by the twilight as well, and her lips moved as she murmured,
"Now, Grandma will never be lonely again ......"
Levi looked at her, his eyes dense with affection, his thumb stroked her hand, and said in a warm voice,
"Well, Grandma will always have Grandpa with her in the future, so she won't be lonely."
"...... That's good." Ruby nodded with a murmur, "Grandma, I'll miss you ......"
With those words, she finally turned back to the cemetery, took a soft breath, and resumed her steps. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
......
After taking care of everything and returning to the hotel, she took a shower and fell asleep afterwards.
These days, with the rescue, her grandmother's passing away, and the busy funeral, the pile of things
had overwhelmed her, and she had been holding on that her body has actually been overloaded long
ago.
But even though she was very tired, she did not sleep soundly this night.
She had a dream that when she was girl, her grandmother doted on her and obeyed her in everything.
She also dreamed of those days when she was kicked out of the Harold family after her mother's death
and had no one to turn to but her grandmother to keep her company.
Those years were hard, but because her grandmother was there, she felt happier than the cold
treatment she suffered in the Harold’s.
She also dreamed that her grandmother was so sick that she could not hold on, but because the worry
of her being alone in this world, she endured the torture of her illness and escaped from the death
again and again.
Tears slipped from the corners of her eyes, wetting the pillow, Ruby unconsciously murmured
"Grandma" and woke up.
Looking around at the dimly lit room, she froze and raised her hand to touch the wetness on her cheek
and smiled bitterly.
Grandma would have laughed at her if she had known.
Still lying, her eyes adjusting to the darkness around her, she stared at the ceiling for a long time before
suddenly whispering, "Grandma, don't worry, I'll get on with my life."
No sooner had she said this than the door to the room was suddenly pushed open from the outside in a
movement so small that it barely made a sound.
Through the light that leaked in through the doorway, Ruby could see at a glance that the person who
came in was Levi.
Levi seemed to think she was still awake and didn't want to wake her up, so he stepped extremely
lightly and placed a glass of water on the bed.
Then, as he shifted his gaze, he met her clear eyes and froze, smiling, "You are up. Why didn't you turn
on the light?"
As he spoke, he switched on the bedside lamp and, at the same time, reached out to cover her eyes,
shielding her from the sudden brightness of the light.
Ruby's eyes blinked, dark, thick eyelashes sliding across his palm.
Levi was instantly tickled by her and the ends of his eyes were just about to rise, but he saw the tear
stains that speckled her face, he asked, "You cried?"
