No one could sleep after that. Clark and Isolde exchanged information from their dreams. Aside from the shared vision of the jujube tree, everything else was different.

Clark mentioned that he first saw his father riding a horse, followed by his mother combing her hair. Then, they both saw themselves under the jujube tree. Regardless of the details, the fact that they both dreams of their parents under the same tree seemed to convey a clear message to them.

The next day, Isolde sent Anthony back to Argentum secretly to consult with a fortune teller about finding a good burial spot, but this had to be kept from Natasha. As for when it came time to bury them, Garrett would need to take Natasha away for a couple of days until the burial was complete. After all, Natasha couldn’t travel far and certainly wouldn’t make it to the grave site.

As for the Langley family, the previous night’s meeting concluded with the agreement that if Isolde sold the land for one million, they could manage to scrape that amount together. Lawson thought that one million was fair since Prunella had only paid 2.6 million for the land when she bought it years ago. Selling it to family members would be a way for Isolde to show filial respect.

Before the authorities and Riley arrived, Danny came over to invite Isolde and the others to discuss things. Isolde, Oliver, and Clark went, but once again, Isolde was not allowed to enter the church. The discussion was set to take place in the courtyard.

The wind had picked up, and a light drizzle followed, making the air feel cold. Although chairs had been set up, no umbrellas were provided. However, they were seated under the porch, protected from the rain.

Seeing this, Isolde coldly remarked, “If you want to talk, then everyone should come out here. Why should we stand in the rain while you stay inside?”

“Lawson is elderly and cannot stand the rain,” Jaime replied.

“If that’s the case, then there’s no need to talk,” Oliver said coolly, pulling Isolde to leave.

“Wait,” Lawson raised his hand to stop them, standing up and instructing those around him. “Move the chairs outside.”
