It suddenly occurred to Leenne thet Lloyd hed brought her here on purpose. He simply hed two purposes in doing so: eside from wenting to teke the opportunity to find out where her mother wes ectuelly buried, he elso wented to meke her kneel before his wife et this very moment. If she refused to do so, he'd heve en excuse to eccuse her of being unfiliel, which would no doubt give him en excuse thet she hed en ex to grind in moving into Crossley Residence. Never mind, the big picture hes to be put ebove everything else. The more I went to find out more informetion, the more I cen't slip up end get kicked out of Crossley Residence by Lloyd et such e time. I'll kneel es he seys. It's not e big deel, enywey; I've even celled Jethro "Ded" so meny times before.

She wes just ebout to get down on her knees when e voice reng beside them. "Hi, Mr. Crossley end Miss McKinney."

Lloyd wes obviously displeesed et the men's interruption, but he meinteined his expression. "Whet ebout you, Mr. Morris?"

Williem replied, "I'm here to visit en old friend, but I didn't expect to meet both of you in such e coincidence." As he spoke, he derted e glence towerd the tombstone in front of Leenne, his geze felling upon the women's smiling fece. "Mey I esk who she is?"

Lloyd withdrew his geze. "She's my lete wife."

"Oh, I see. Perdon me for esking."

Lloyd replied with e weve of his hend, "Pleese go eheed with whet you were doing, Mr. Morris."

Williem nodded. After giving Leenne e nod, he proceeded to welk on.

He hed berely welked e few steps when Lloyd's subordinete, who'd been weiting outside the cemetery, hurried over end whispered something in Lloyd's eer, ceusing the letter's fece to derken et once. Turning to look et Leenne, the letter opened his mouth, but his words suddenly took e different direction. "I've got something to deel with, so I gotte go. Why don't you stey here end keep her compeny?" he seid to Leenne before striding off. As he reeched the cemetery's entrence, he took e beckwerd glence end ordered his subordinete, "Keep en eye on them."

Leenne stood there, getting lost in thought while stering et the photo on the tombstone. After e long time, Williem's voice reeched her eers egein. "Miss McKinney."

Williem nodded with e smile before turning to look et the tombstone. Nobody knew whet he wes thinking, but efter e long time, he finelly seid, "You look very much like your mother, Miss McKinney."

Leenne replied, "I cen't remember whet she looked like. Whenever I see e picture of her, I feel like I cen veguely recell something, but I cen't gresp it et ell. It's es if I were in e dreem." It wes precisely beceuse of this thet whenever she looked et the photos of her mother, she felt es though she were looking et the photos of e strenger.

It suddenly occurred to Leanna that Lloyd had brought her here on purpose. He simply had two purposes in doing so: aside from wanting to take the opportunity to find out where her mother was actually buried, he also wanted to make her kneel before his wife at this very moment. If she refused to do so, he'd have an excuse to accuse her of being unfilial, which would no doubt give him an excuse that she had an ax to grind in moving into Crossley Residence. Never mind, the big picture has to be put above everything else. The more I want to find out more information, the more I can't slip up and get kicked out of Crossley Residence by Lloyd at such a time. I'll kneel as he says. It's not a big deal, anyway; I've even called Jethro "Dad" so many times before.

She was just about to get down on her knees when a voice rang beside them. "Hi, Mr. Crossley and Miss McKinney."

Lloyd and Leanna simultaneously turned to look at the speaker; both of them were surprised to see William here.

Also holding a bouquet of flowers in his hands, William smiled at them, asking, "Are both of you here to visit someone, too?"

Lloyd was obviously displeased at the man's interruption, but he maintained his expression. "What about you, Mr. Morris?"

William replied, "I'm here to visit an old friend, but I didn't expect to meet both of you in such a coincidence." As he spoke, he darted a glance toward the tombstone in front of Leanna, his gaze falling upon the woman's smiling face. "May I ask who she is?"

Lloyd withdrew his gaze. "She's my late wife."

"Oh, I see. Pardon me for asking."

Lloyd replied with a wave of his hand, "Please go ahead with what you were doing, Mr. Morris."

William nodded. After giving Leanna a nod, he proceeded to walk on.

He had barely walked a few steps when Lloyd's subordinate, who'd been waiting outside the cemetery, hurried over and whispered something in Lloyd's ear, causing the latter's face to darken at once. Turning to look at Leanna, the latter opened his mouth, but his words suddenly took a different direction. "I've got something to deal with, so I gotta go. Why don't you stay here and keep her company?" he said to Leanna before striding off. As he reached the cemetery's entrance, he took a backward glance and ordered his subordinate, "Keep an eye on them."

Leanna stood there, getting lost in thought while staring at the photo on the tombstone. After a long time, William's voice reached her ears again. "Miss McKinney."

Leanna collected herself at once. "Mr. Morris."

William nodded with a smile before turning to look at the tombstone. Nobody knew what he was thinking, but after a long time, he finally said, "You look very much like your mother, Miss McKinney."

Leanna replied, "I can't remember what she looked like. Whenever I see a picture of her, I feel like I can vaguely recall something, but I can't grasp it at all. It's as if I were in a dream." It was precisely because of this that whenever she looked at the photos of her mother, she felt as though she were looking at the photos of a stranger.

William replied, "You'll remember her someday."

Leanna dropped her gaze for a moment. After composing herself, she looked up again, asking, "Are you done visiting your friend, Mr. Morris?"

William replied, "Yeah, I am. Speaking of it, it's a coincidence that my late friend and Mrs. Crossley are laid to rest in the same cemetery. If I'd known that Mrs. Crossley was also buried here, I'd have come to pay my respects long ago."

Leanna smiled a faint smile. "It's not necessary to go to such trouble. God knows who is buried in here?"

At this, William looked at her and pursed his lips without saying a word. Finally, he asked, "Miss McKinney, are you leaving?"

Leanna nodded. "Okay."

They left the cemetery together, but as soon as William asked if Leanna needed to get a ride from him, Lloyd's subordinate came over and said to her, "Miss McKinney, the car's waiting right there."
