I Am the Sweetheart of Mr. CEO-Chapter 599 - 597: Cannot Tolerate the Slightest Offense

"Really?" Nathan Leafcastle walked excitedly towards Liliana Davis, "Mom... Have you come to terms with it?"

Liliana Davis’s eyes flashed with a hint of amusement, but her tone remained calm, "No matter what, he’s still your father. All these years, I shouldn’t have stopped you."

Nathan Leafcastle reached out and hugged her shoulders, "Thank you, Mom!"

The bond between father and son, the blood connection, can’t possibly be severed.

In recent years, caught between his parents, Nathan Leafcastle had also found it hard to deal with—one side his mother, the other his deceased father.

"Go get ready!" Liliana Davis patted his shoulder, "The cemetery is quite far, we should head out early."

The three of them prepared briefly and then drove out of the neighborhood. Nathan Leafcastle stopped by a florist to buy some flowers, returning shortly with three bouquets in his arms.

Sally helped him arrange the flowers and curiously asked.

"Why buy so many?"

"We might as well visit Uncle Wave." Nathan Leafcastle sat in the driver’s seat, "They should be in the same cemetery."

Sally nodded, while in the back seat, a hint of displeasure flashed in Liliana Davis’s eyes, but she said nothing.

The three arrived at the cemetery and came to the Leaf family’s plot. Nathan Leafcastle offered a bouquet to his grandparents, then placed another in front of his father’s grave.

Before, he had secretly visited his father a few times. This time, with his mother’s permission, he came together, making it all the more significant.

"Dad, I’ve brought Sally. You’ve met her before. In a few days, we will be engaged."

Standing at the side, Liliana Davis watched him converse with his father and watched as he brought Sally forward to pay respects... and couldn’t help but have her eyes well up.

Seeing this, Sally quickly pulled Nathan Leafcastle’s arm, and the two of them went over to console her.

"I’m okay; you go ahead. I’ll stay for a while longer."

"Alright."

Thinking his mother might have private words for his father, Nathan Leafcastle took the extra bouquet and left with Sally to head to Walter Wave’s grave.

"Walter’s grave isn’t far from here. They made a pact back then, to be together in life and buried together in death." Nathan Leafcastle recalled the past with emotion, "I know my mom still loves my dad, she just won’t admit it. They were very loving before. I just can’t understand why Dad... would do such a foolish thing."

"Probably just a momentary lapse, and your aunt is someone who doesn’t tolerate any deception," Sally said.

As they spoke, they arrived at the Wave family’s cemetery.

Seeing the wilted flowers before the tombstone, Nathan Leafcastle guessed Vera Wave had been here.

Nathan Leafcastle placed the bouquet he brought alongside the slightly wilted one, gazing for a moment at the man on the tombstone, and thought of playing with Vera Wave at the Wave home, causing a dull ache in his heart.

Times have changed; the world is different. Who would have thought such a good relationship between two families would end like this?

Both parents committing suicide, and once as close as siblings, the two can only visit the cemetery separately.

Sally patted his shoulder, "Don’t think too much about it. It’s all in the past. Let’s head down."

Nathan Leafcastle responded and went down the hill with her.

Soon after they left, Liliana Davis arrived at Walter Wave’s grave.

With a cold snort, she reached out to take the bouquet in front of the tombstone, disdainfully spat at the tombstone, threw the flowers into the trash, and turned to walk down the hill.
