Chapter 715 The Letter That Won't Be Replied To

Emelie stared out the car window.

White snow had blanketed Capebatt City, covering everything in a thick layer of white, blurring out the road beneath it.

But when winter gave way to spring, and the snow melted, everything would return to how it was before. No one would remember what the road looked like when it was hidden under the snow.
