Chapter 758

Kayla's eyes welled up as she looked at Sky. After a long pause, she finally found her voice. "I never thought I'd run into you here. Mr. Walker, how have you been?"

Sky nodded. "I've been doing well. What about you? While I was away from the company, were you still working at Walker Group?"

Kayla nodded. "Yes, I've been there the whole time, still in the same position. Mr. Lincoln said I was doing a great job and that I didn't need to resign just because of your situation. Mr. Walker, are you here today to pray or give thanks?"

"I'm here with my mother to give thanks," Sky replied.

Kayla smiled. "Me too."

Just then, Charlotte finished lighting a candle and walked over to greet Kayla. "Ms. Parham, hello!"

"Mrs. Walker, it's nice to see you," Kayla replied.

"What a coincidence it is to run into you here," Charlotte said warmly. "I'd like to walk around a bit on my own. Ms. Parham, would you mind keeping Sky company for a while? Make sure he doesn't wander off and disappear on me, alright?"

She smiled and turned to leave.

Sky was left speechless.

He wasn't a child anymore, and he didn't act on impulse the way he used to. He certainly didn't need a babysitter.

But since Charlotte cared, he accepted it without complaint.

"Mr. Walker, let me walk with you," Kayla said gently.

She turned away and quietly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.


She hadn't expected to run into Sky here. What surprised her even more was that he actually came over and spoke to her first.

Looking back, Kayla admitted that she hadn't truly stood by Sky when it mattered most. Even now, she couldn't say for sure whether she had made the right choice.

There were nights when regret would creep in as she lay in bed, but no matter how heavy the feeling, life continued as usual the very next morning.

Running into Sky here was already a big surprise for Kayla, but the fact that he had taken the initiative to speak to her made it an even greater one.
