Chapter 105

Chapter 105 Pillar of Shame
Jethro’s funeral was very simple. It was not so much a funeral as it was just a simple ceremony.
Only Jethro’s name was engraved on the tombstone and nothing else.
Louis held an umbrella and stood beside Leanna. “Speaking of which, he did this to himself. So, there’s no one to blame for this ending.”
Their last duty was to pick up his ashes and find a grave for his burial.
Leanna stayed silent, stared at Jethro’s grave for a while, and she said slowly, “Lou, let’s go.”
No matter how unforgivable the things Jethro had done in the past, it all ended here.
She finally felt a sense of relief.

After they left the cemetery, Leanna and Louis headed back to the old house to sort out what Jethro had left behind.
The house was in an old-fashioned residential building. Unfortunately, it wasn’t located in a good place and was not worth much money. But according to Jethro’s character, he would have tried his best to mortgage the house to pay back the money. Yet, somehow, he never thought of this house.
As he had not been back here for a long time, the house was covered with a thick layer of dust.
Louis patted the furniture upon entering the establishment before saying to Leanna, “You can wait outside. It’s too dusty here.”
She nodded agreeably. “Okay.”
Then, he found a cardboard box and packed all of Jethro’s things into it.
Leanna stood on the balcony, looking at the place where she grew up. She couldn’t describe the feeling in her heart.
It seemed that Jethro had always been acting up ever since she could remember. Although he wasn’t involved in gambling back then, he was still an alcoholic. Occasionally, there would be times when he remembered how he had two children and vowed to quit.

But most of the time, it didn’t last for more than two days before he started drinking again.
And each time he went back, the worse he got.

brought out a locked, old-fashioned suitcase from Jethro’s room. Judging from the looks of it, it seemed like it had not been open for years. Then, she saw him looking around for a tool to pry the lock open and asked, “Are you trying to open it?” “I saw him open this suitcase once. There should be something important to him inside,” he answered as he continued to look around. Leanna opened her mouth to speak, but no words came out. As a matter of fact, she,

contents inside clearly. There were a few yellowed photos, a diary, and a pocket watch. Louis picked up the photo; it was a picture of a beautiful woman with a man, but Jethro had scratched the man’s face with something sharp. It was hard to tell who he was. But judging from his body size and how he dressed, it was obvious that it was not Jethro. The second photo was a picture of a family of three; a woman, a

Leanna picked up the diary and did not notice Louis’ pause. The journal was written from Jethro’s point of view. It had the whole story of his crush on a girl, but he did not specifically mention who it was. However, he wrote about how his mood changed every time he saw the girl.
The diary ended when the girl got married.
She continued to flip around and found another line of words written on the last page.
She promised to marry me. I’ve long awaited this day.

“Lou, what’s wrong?” He handed her the photo in his hand before he got up and left. Leanna’s eyes widened when she saw the picture. If she guessed correctly, Jethro must have scratched these photos and the man in the photo… After a long time, she put the photo back into the suitcase and went to the living room. Louis was there with his head down, packing away the rest of the things quietly. When he heard the noise, he spoke without looking up, “Go
