Crystal nodded. “But she’s in a special situation now… I might need to go back and ask her personally. It’s impossible if you want to get it fixed in a short period of time.”
Madam Kyla was already very happy. She said, “It doesn’t matter… it doesn’t matter. As long as I can find Monique, I can wait.”
Marcus did not expect that she really had a way to fix the wedding dress. He glanced at Crystal and said, “Thank you.” Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
“No need.” Crystal said, “It’s not a big deal.”
Marcus put the wedding dress back into the box. Madam Kyla was very happy. She asked Crystal to stay for afternoon tea. Seeing that Old Madam insisted, Helena also persuaded, “Madam Kayla is so happy. Why don’t you stay?”
In fact, Crystal really wanted to accompany Madam Kyla. She felt that Madam Kayla was very kind at first glance. Maybe it was because they were related by blood. She had never felt this when she was with Debbie.
However, whether she could stay or not was not up to her. It was up to Marcus.
“Since grandma is happy, you should stay.” Marcus smiled and no one could hear any other emotions from his voice.
Only then did Crystal agree.
Madam Kyla was so happy that there was finally someone who could fix the dress. She could not help but think of the past. When the group of people passed by the garden, she looked at the swing. tied to
the flower tree and said with nostalgia, “This swing was made by Chloe’s father when she was young.”
“I even nagged at him saying that it was better to hire professional people to do it so that the quality of the work would be better, but he refused. He came out with such an ugly thing on his own… Chloe was really the easiest child to coax. Even though it was ugly, she liked it.”
Marcus’s eyes also fell on the swing.
Among all the children of the Evans family, he and Danny had spent the longest time with Chloe. When Chloe passed away, they were old enough to remember things.
Unlike Antony, he was still young and ignorant when his mother passed away. He was only four years old and did not even know what “death” meant. Before his mother was buried, he had thought that his mother b
fallen asleep because she was too tired after giving birth to his younger sister. It was not until her coffin was nailed and buried in the soil that he burst into tears. He did not want his mother to be buried in the cold soil.
In Marcus’s memory, Chloe was someone who had her own ideas. The ways she educated the children were completely different from Daxton’s. The occasional quarrels between husband and wife were all due to the different concepts of education. However, Daxton would quickly compromise. After all, for him, Chloe was the most important person. The children came after her.
But in Marcus’s memory, Chloe was always unhappy. She would smile gently, but there was no joy in her eyes. It was a kind of extreme exhaustion, as if there was something heavy on her shoulder that she had to carry.
He couldn’t imagine what his mother looked like when she was young. Was she also like a girl of the same age, naive and carefree, living under the wings of her parents?
“Then…” Madam Kyla sighed softly and said, “Later, the old man passed away, and Chloe sat on the swing for a whole night. After that, she also passed away…”
“Grandma,” Marcus whispered, “Let’s not think about the past anymore.”
The old woman murmured, “I can’t just pretend as if the past has never happened by not thinking about it, can I?”
