Chapter 1232


    The entire congregation was swept up in their grief, tears glistening in their eyes as they watched the


    casket being lowered, and the gravestone being set.


    "Please, everyone, bow to the departed three times."


    The officiant''s words prompted everyone to bow their heads, time and time again, bidding their final


    farewell.


    With the heavy snowfall, the world turned white.


    Celeste knelt on the snowy ground, clutching the gravestone, unwilling to leave. Alger knelt beside her,


    staring at their daughter''s portrait on the stone, weeping bitterly.


    The Temple family rtives couldn''t persuade them to leave, so they thanked the quests on their

    behalf.


    The quests left in an orderly manner.


    Keh and Louisa wanted to stay longer with them.


    rk watched the two kneeling figures from a distance. They seemed to have aged twenty years in an


    instant, their backs hunched as if crushed by their grief.


    “Crystal, I promise to take good care of your parents and ensure their safety; rk said, looking at


    Crystal''s photo on the gravestone, his eyes welling up with tears. "I''m sorry. I''m truly sorry."


    Crystal''s portrait on the gravestone smiled brilliantly as always.


    Seeing rk standing in the snow for a long time, like a statue, Arabe couldn''t help but approach


    him. “rk, let''s go. Let them stay with Crystal a bit longer"


    There was no use staying. Alger and Celeste just wanted to be alone with their daughter.


    All the apologies and guilt were futile.


    “Okay."


    rk eventually looked away, leaving the cemetery with a heavy heart.


    "rk, I found a few leadsst night, rted to those people. I sent them to your WhatsApp;’ Arabe


    said, knowing that what rk wanted most at this moment was to avenge Crystal.


    “Same here. I sent you the details from my guys; Romeo added, forwarding all the information he''d


    received to rk.


    "I''ve also found a few leads. Hopefully, this time, we can get them all" rk said, his voice filled with


    grief and outrage. "You guys go ahead, I''ll leave in a bit."


    He still wanted to stay outside the cemetery, to spend a little more time with Crystal.


    Arabe nodded and left with Romeo. They didn''t go to the wake but went back to Reflections Vi.


    “When Mom and Dad get back, I''ll ask for Grandpa''s address. We might need to travel abroad,”


    Arabe volunteered.


    Romeo wrapped a scarf around her neck and said gently, “Alright. Let me know what''s up."


    “Be careful on the road.” Arabe took off the scarf he had just put on her and put it back on him, “It''s


    cold outside and I''m almost home. I don''t need it."


    Romeo had never had Arabe help him with his scarf before, and watching her intent and beautiful


    eyes made him smile gently.


    "Get inside. It''s snowing,’ Romeo said indulgently. “I''ll leave after you''re inside."


    "You go ahead."


    “I want to see you go in.


    In the end, Arabe couldn''t argue with him any longer. Seeing the snow getting heavier, she quickly


    entered Reflections Vi.


    Romeo knew that Arabe was hurrying because she didn''t want him to be out in the cold any longer.
