Girl Get Rid Of That Jerk by Melissa Johns

Chapter 380

Thomas handed the folder to Joshua. "This village was where Nancy and Chris first settled when they came to America. They lived here for five years, and it's also where Nancy passed away."

Joshua opened the folder, revealing a thick stack of documents. Inside were photos of the cozy little cabin they had called home, along with some old snapshots of Chris and Nancy.

Thomas continued, "This cabin was their home. Over the years, Chris has made sure it's been kept clean."

"The locals don't bury their dead; they cremate them. After Nancy died, the villagers cremated her. Chris gathered some of her ashes and set up a shrine. At the time, he couldn't afford a proper grave, so he later had a cenotaph built with some of Nancy's clothes and jewelry inside."

"Even though Chris traveled a lot after that, Nancy's ashes stayed in the cabin, with someone watching over them. Every year, on her birthday and memorial day, Chris would come back to pay his respects."

"Has the grave been checked?" Joshua asked, his tone as casual as if he were asking about the weather, but his eyes were sharp and penetrating.

Thomas nodded, "Yes, it's been checked. It's definitely a cenotaph."
