Chronicle of Life

Chapter 7: Her Funeral

Elena's mental state became very bad. As long as she couldn't see Oswald, she would lose control of her emotions, shout and hurt herself.

In order to stabilize her emotions, Oswald had to move his work to the hospital.

After a long time, Oswald lost his patience, but he thought about how much he owed Elena, suppressing this impatience.

"Oswald..." Oswald was looking at the documents when Elena suddenly walked over and sat on his lap without any hesitation, "Elena misses you so much. Let Elena work with you, okay?"

Oswald focused all his attention on the documents in front of him. He didn't notice that Elena was wearing a rather exposed white nightgown tonight.

Elena lowered her eyelashes and leaned against Oswald's shoulder. Her hand touched Oswald's tight abdomen and gently stroked it.

"Oswald, let me accompany you more, okay?"

Oswald's movements stopped. Elena thought that he agreed, so she kissed Oswald's neck.

"I love you all the time and I am willing to do anything for you." Elena hugged Oswald tightly and said, "In the future, can you let Elena accompany you? In the future, I will only have you as my man. I will definitely not look at other men, Oswald …"

Her hand directly reached into Oswald's clothes.

Oswald's muscles tensed up, and he suddenly felt a sense of disgust in his heart. He pushed Elena down.

"Stop messing around!" Oswald frowned and grabbed the jacket beside him. "I'll let Elvira accompany you tonight. I have something to do, so I have to go home."

Elena was panicked. She hurriedly hugged Oswald's leg and cried, "Don't leave me. Please, don't!"

These days, she always cried like this, making Oswald's patience diminish day by day.

"Elena, I won't stay with you forever." Oswald said, "In the future, there will be someone who loves you and takes care of you, but not me."

He pulled out his leg and walked out.

"If you don't accompany me, then who do you want to accompany?" Elena's eyes were instantly filled with madness and fierceness, but Oswald turned his back to her and didn't see it.

"You want to accompany Vanessa? Have you forgotten what she did to me back then? How many bad things did she do to marry you for you!"

Oswald's footsteps stopped for a moment. Elena hurriedly said, "Oswald, I really love you. If you leave me, I will die."

"But I'm already married." Oswald did not turn around and left the ward.

After coming out of the hospital, he immediately called his secretary and asked if he found Vanessa's whereabouts.

"Still not..." said the secretary. "We are also very surprised. She seems to have suddenly disappeared from the world. We can't find any traces.

"Oswald frowned fiercely, "Continue!"

"Yes." The secretary hesitated for a few seconds and said, "Mr. Simon, we need you to provide some information. where Mrs. Simon would hide if she disappeared? Our passive search is too in efficient …"

Oswald thought of Vanessa's grandmother in the countryside. Vanessa's parents had died because of an accident, and her only relative was her grandmother.

After hanging up the phone, Oswald immediately rushed to the countryside.

It was remote there, the car drove all night, and he finally arrived in the town early the next morning.Oswald didn't remember the exact location, so he had to go to a shop to inquire about it.

"Old Mrs. Toland, her house is on the opposite side of the alley. Go all the way to the end. Turn right and there's a small gray building. That's it."

After the shop owner finished speaking, he sighed and asked Oswald, "Are you here to attend her granddaughter's funeral?"

"What did you say?" Oswald was stunned.The boss said, "Don't you know that the only granddaughter of Old Mrs. Toland passed away last week because of liver cancer?"

Oswald shook his body and said, "No, impossible!"He turned around, looked at the deep alley, and said with all his might, "Impossible!"
