Since it was the new year, Sherry didn’t give Daniel a hard time during lunch.

Stella and Channing went to Jeffrey’s grave after lunch.

Stella couldn’t utter a word looking at the picture on the tomb.

She hated Jeffrey when he was alive and wished countless time that she was not his daughter.

And her wished came true.

There was no father and daughter love between them all the while, it was irony to look back at what happened.

Channing bent and put the flower in front of the tomb. He looked calm.

After a few minutes, “Let’s go,” Stella said.

Channing stood up and ready to go but saw a cigarette butt at the side of the grave.

“What happened?” Stella asked.

Channing frowned, “No one else would visit Jeffrey apart from us.”

Stella nodded. “No one else knows his grave is here.”

Channing moved his lips and asked Stella, “Do you have any tissue?”

“Yes.” Stella took out a small packet of tissue from her pocket and gave it to Channing.

Channing took out all the tissues and picked up the cigarette butt and put it back in the packet.

Stella frowned looking at him, “Channing…”

Channing replied, “We have to be cautious.”

This was the first time Stella saw Channing being this cautious. She asked after a few steps. “Channing, do you know something?”
