Chapter 327

The house still has people living in it. The house they were looking at used to be the small home of Seraphina and her family. Now, it has new residents.

The door was tightly shut. Only a corner of the curtains allowed a peek inside.

Seraphina pressed her face against the window for a long time before finally turning around and whispered, “Everything’s changed.”

Seraphina turned around and sat down on the steps in front of the house. She looked past Leandro, quietly observing the courtyard.

“Mom used to wash her hair in that corner… In the summer, we would have dinner in the yard… Mom tried to learn how to cook from the lady next door once, but she got burnt from the get-go. Dad couldn’t bear to see her work so he continued cooking… But sometimes dad would forget to eat or sleep when he was painting, mom would take me out for meals, at that place in the alley, it’s still there after all these years…”

Seraphina propped her chin up and slowly recounted the memories of the past, getting lost in them as she spoke.

Leandro stood quietly in front of her, always maintaining his silence.

Until suddenly a resident walked into the courtyard from the outside. Seeing the two of them, he couldn’t help but ask, “Who are you? This is not open for visits!”

Seraphina snapped back to reality, looked up and her eyes instantly lit up, “Mr. Manley?”

Seraphina immediately stood up and pointed at the house behind her, “I’m Seraphina.”

“Who are you?”

“Seraphina?” Manley recalled for a moment, then started laughing in realization, “Oh my, it’s you, the little missy. You’ve grown so big, so beautiful, I didn’t recognize you! It’s been so many years, why are you just coming back now?”
