Chapter 445

"I thought you guys were friends till the end, with no secrets between you. But she's not all that honest with you either Wayne sighed

He seemed to feel really bad for Rosalynn.

Rosalynn didn't want to pay him any attention

Maybe, over these five years, he had changed and was no longer the person she used to know.

He was even starting to play the victim now!

With a bitter sweet smile on his face too!

The memorial ceremony for the Old Mrs. Silverman ended after an hour.

Standing for that long, Rosalynn felt like her legs were cramping up

Wayne was chatting with a few older people, who must be friends of Old Mrs. Silverman from back in the day

Rosalynn sat down in a corner, massaging her waist and pounding her back.

How she really wished to take off her high heels and rub her calves

After a while

Wayne finished his conversation with the elders, and they left. Wayne turned and walked towards Rosalynn.

"They were grandma's classmates"

Wayne got down and, before Rosalynn could react, took off her high heels. His warm hands gently rubbed her calves. "Wayne, there's no need.

Even though there weren't many people in the hall, Rosalynn still felt very flustered

"Nobody's looking. Sit properly so you don't fall" Wayne said, in a deep voice.

Rosalynn

Fine, let him be

If Wayne was the one that made her stand until her waist and back hurt, he should take care of her too.

After a while, the ceremony preparations were done

A staff member notified Wayne, who responded and somehow found a pair of flat shoes for Rosalynn

They didn't speak the whole way.

Rosalynn looked at him, unable to suppress the heartache

Today, not a single member of the Silverman family showed up.

"Rosalynn, wait in the resting room on the second floor" Wayne looked up at her, the corner of his eyes turning red.

He looked incredibly fragile.

"Okay" Rosalynn answered.

Wayne stood up and walked away with the staff member.

"I'll go too."

He took two steps and heard Rosalynn's voice from behind.

Wayne's tall figure stiffened. He turned and looked at Rosalynn, "Is this Okay?"

"I'm here to send off a respected elder Why wouldn't it be? Rosalynn got up and walked over nervously

Might as well repay him for the leg massage earlier.

Wayne tidied his grandma's hair again.

"Grandma, this is as far as I can accompany you." Wayne spoke gently.

The body was then wheeled away.

Relatives were waiting outside.

Wayne and Rosalynn sat on a bench in silence.

After the cremation, what was once a familiar face had now turned into ashes and bones, placed in a box

It was the old lady's wish to be buried in her hometown, neat to her parents' grave

She was somewhat superstitious, so Wayne had hired someone to pick a suitable burial date

There was no suitable date in the next half-month, so the burial had to be postponed.

Once Old Mrs. Silverman was settled, Wayne took Rosalynn to look for Paige and Baillie. But the two had already left.

In the end, all four met up at a restaurant.

On the way, Wayne showed Rosalynn a message from Baillie.
