Chapter 1679 Reunion
Perhaps he was right. Life and death were a part of nature, and everything had its destined fate. Should
there be any wrong step in between, we would never be able to feel each other’s warmth and heartbeat
as what we were doing now.
Only after visiting the seniors of the Fullers and Winona did we depart to Macy’s cemetery.
After years in and years out, the black-and-white photo of Macy at her best age at the tombstone
remained undamaged.
Instantaneously, countless memories welled up inside my heart. I walked over, put the flower in my hand
down, and crouched down. Then, I extended my hand to touch the tombstone with the hope of being
able to feel her warmth again by doing so.
As I looked at the photo, I started to mumble uncontrollably, “It’s been so long since I last visited you. I
bet you must be mad at me, right? You should stay safe and live well in the other world. Stop worrying
about me. Ashton’s nice to me, and we have got a pair of adorable twins now. I’m sure that you’ll like
them once you meet them.”

well. She’s a Math genius and has started her business now. In the future, she’ll surely be a lady boss of
the bar that is much younger than you.”
I sniffled to suppress my tears from rolling down my face. Next, I beckoned Summer to come over.
“Come closer, Summer. Let Macy have a good look at you. Do you still remember that I brought you here
when you were younger?”
“Yes.” Summer nodded before approaching me and putting down the white Lily in her hands.
When she raised her head to look at the photo, a rare gentle smile bloomed on her face. Calmly and
naturally, she continued, “I’ve never forgotten about it.”
If Macy heard her remarks, she would surely feel comforted. Even if Macy couldn’t live in Summer’s
memory as her mother, Macy would always have a special place in her heart.
Perhaps it was the telepathy between the mother and her daughter. After a mere two seconds, Summer
touched the photo subconsciously and said absentmindedly, “Mommy, do I look a lot like Aunt Macy?”
I blurted out, “You do. You’re basically a replica of her. When you were first born to this world, she adores
you a lot, even making you her goddaughter. In fact, nothing is wrong if you call her mom.”
Indeed, Macy had the right to hear Summer addressing her that.
Of course, it would solely depend on Summer’s decision, as I couldn’t force her into that. Moreover, I
didn’t want to hurt her by telling her about the old days. After all, those memories were too burdened for
her.
Yet, surprisingly, Summer accepted my words without resisting.
As she cast her eyes on the photo, a smile lingered on her face, not fading even after quite some time.
With a hint of wariness in her gentle voice, she called out, “Mommy, I’m here to visit you. Are you glad to
see me?”
Despite the only reply she got was an endless silence, it was still a heartwarming sight to behold. How
fortunate was the mother to reunite with her daughter to know that she was doing fine?
Macy could finally rest in peace down there.
At that moment, Ashton, who remained silent the entire time while standing beside, said suddenly in a
low voice, “You’ve grown up and soon will have to stand on your own, so it wouldn’t be appropriate if you

keep bringing your teacher along with you as you go around. The others would mock you for being a
dependent child. I’ve decided for you and dismissed Mr. Cress. He would be leaving to Epea by taking
the flight this afternoon and won’t come back anymore in the future.”
Before I could come to my senses at the sudden news, Summer sprang up in a panic. With a flustered
look, she stood rooted to the spot in a dilemma.
She was able to remain expressionless when the police stormed into the club before, yet, at Ashton’s
announcement, she frowned with her emotions written all over her face.
A few seconds later, Summer finally noticed Ashton’s stare at her. The moment her eyes met with his,
surprise gleamed across her eyes. Only after that did she attempt to control her emotions
subconsciously.
Eventually, after a great effort, she managed to revert to her calm, obedient self.
However, it was futile. When she tried to find an excuse to slip away, she accidentally exposed her real
inner thought once again.
“Daddy, I just remembered that I’ve something important that needs to be settled today in Wenville, so I
want to leave first. Can I?”
