Chapter 648
In the end, Grandma did not finish her last words. Her eyes and
her mouth were still open, but she was no longer breathing.
Grace stared blankly as tears fell from her eyes.
The doctors and nurses beside them determined the time of her
grandmother’s death and said to Grace, “Our condolences, Miss
Cummins.”
‘Condolences…’ The only family who loved her was gone!
Grace suddenly let out a yell and laid beside her grandmother’s still-warm body while crying.

Grandma calling her Grace and she could not see her smiling at her anymore…
Grace cried while Jason stood by in silence.
He knew that she had too many tears to let out right now. Her grandmother was a spiritual support to her. She was
her protector after the loss of her mother.
However, she would never see her again.
He understood the pain of losing a loved one. When his father
was frozen to death in front of his eyes, he only felt as if he was
left alone in the whole world.
Even later when he acknowledged his biological family and was accepted back into the Reed family, he never had a
sense of belonging.
Perhaps death was a relief to his father who loved his mother so much that it was painful for him to live after losing
his mother.
However, he forgot that he still had a child and gave all his feelings. to the woman. What he left to the child was just
a suicide note- A suicide note indicating his identity and how he wished he could return to the Reed family.
Grace cried for a long time. Eventually, her tears seemed to have dried up, leaving only tearless crying and choking
sobs.
“Let your grandmother leave in peace, Grace,” Jason finally said.
Grace sobbed, her eyes red and swollen. “Yes, I must let Grandma… Leave in peace…” she said. Finally, she
reluctantly covered her grandmother’s face with her hand to close her eyes and mouth.

“I know,” he said, gently pulling her into his arms. “Me too. I’ll love you and protect you more than anyone else in
the world, so don’t
cry, all right?”
Looking at her red and swollen eyes, he felt a pang in his heart.
He would give anything to keep her from crying if he could, but he had no idea how to stop her tears.
“You know what? Your tears make me feel as if it hurts to breathe.” Jason lowered his head and gently kissed
Grace’s red, swollen
eyes.
‘Stop crying. I’ll heal all your wounds.”
No matter how long it would take her to heal, he would be there
for her.
He would keep her safe all his life-As he had promised.
