Chapter 1244:

“Just yesterday, a woman who seemed to be in her mid-twenties, radiantly beautiful, like a star straight out of the movies, showed up. I couldn’t figure out why she was at the base of the mountain, bundled up in a jacket, asking for warm coffee because she was freezing. Immediately, when she stepped inside and saw Gracelyn, they realized it was a coincidence that they were neighbors in the past.”

Jake listened intently, his thoughts drifting to Kallie. A fleeting thought crossed his mind. What if she had braved the perilous descent, scaling down the cliff to find him?

Unable to hold back, Jake asked, “What did she look like? Can you describe her? Did she say why she was near the cliff?”

The caregiver chuckled.

“I haven’t seen her, so I can’t say for sure. But someone mentioned she claimed to be sightseeing, got lost, and ended up here. It is unlikely that she is your wife because I heard she used to be childhood sweethearts with the White family’s grandson who passed away years ago.”

Jake’s heart sank. The glimmer of hope faded from his eyes. He mulled it over and realized it was indeed impossible. If the woman who had ties to the White family were Kallie, Gracelyn would have recognized Kallie immediately and found out she was married to him.

Gracelyn harbored a deep grudge against him, making it hard to believe she wouldn’t act on it. It would be effortless for Gracelyn to discover what he looked like, yet she had apparently done
