Chapter 924

I looked up at the sky and said faintly, "The fireworks are really beautiful tonight, Matthew. I hope this willb e the start of something better.’’

I wished from the bottom of my heart. If it were possible, I hoped that everyone could live a better life.

I hoped that Matthew would have a child and a family of his own. I hoped he could live a better life and leave the past behind.

The man on the other end did not say anything and remained silent. I figured he probably did not know what to say. I did not know how to proceed with the conversation either, so after saying goodbye, I hung up the phone.

I looked up at the magnificent fireworks in the sky as a grin gradually tugged on my lips. I hoped everything would go smoothly this year.
