Isadora thought that there was something wrong with her ears. "Minerva, what did you say?"Minerva smiled and cried at the same time. "Isadora, come quickly. I saw Uncle Holden. It must be him. Come quickly."Isadora was completely stunned. She was at a loss for words for a very long time."Isadora? Isadora?" Minerva called out at the other end of the phone."Yes." Isadora's voice sounded like a ghost.Indeed, Holden had always been on Isadora's mind all day and every day, but she had never imagined that Holden could be alive. What was going on? Was it truly Holden? Did he not die? Isadora had no clue. At that moment, Isadora's senses and her heart were reacting slower than usual, so she only responded after a long time when Isadora called out to her."I will wait for you at the hospital. Come over quickly. Oh, right, take Aino with you. My uncle likes Aino the best. Quickly come over. I will first go and keep my uncle here so that he doesn't leave."After saying that, Minerva h
From then on, all the news that she learned about her uncle was so perilous. Even in those precarious situations, every time there was news from him, he would tell her that a part of his property was given to Minerva. He wanted Minerva to stay in school, study hard, and not rely on others. Minerva remembered every single word her Uncle had told her. He was also the only family in South City that Minerva had missed. She missed him more than she missed her parents.However, her uncle had died. Her uncle, who was so sorrowful, who needed a family's love, who was so cold yet incomparably weak, had died. Minerva had lost her only family in South City and also that affection.A few years had passed, and at her Uncle Holden's death anniversaries and birthdays, as well as Minerva's own birthday at year, she would visit him at his grave. It had been a few years, but Minerva had never forgotten about him, so much so that Isadora, who was most fond of her Uncle Holden, had also become good frie
The man, who had his side profile facing Minerva, turned his head, and then he saw a little girl, standing at the door. However, there was not the slightest bit of disgust in the way the man looked at the girl. Instead, he asked gently, "Miss, are you…calling me? Uncle?"Looking at her age, this girl was twenty-five years old at best. The man, on the other hand, was already thirty-seven years old, so it was not strange for her to address him as her uncle. The only thing was that he did not know this girl. However, in the man's mind, he felt as if she had met her before. Had she seen her somewhere beforehand? The man had no clue."Uncle?" Minerva's tears gushed down her cheeks. She had once again forgotten that she was here to see her mentor, and had already completely ignored her mentor, who was stunned and at a loss for words. Instead, Minerva walked straight to that man until she was right in front of him, and she directly jumped into the man's arms.The man was utterly speechless
Minerva's tears immediately gushed down her cheeks again. "Sir, I'm sorry. He truly is my uncle. My uncle is very pitiful. You don't know this, but this person truly is my uncle. My uncle is too pitiful…"Her mentor was speechless. He firmly believed that Minerva was a good girl. She had never done anything unreasonable, so what was the matter that day? He did not criticize her harshly but instead, he said to her, "Minerva, you're not in the right mood today. Let's forget about the subject from Kidon City. Come report to me again when your emotions are stable. How about this? Go back to your dormitory to have a good rest today and pull yourself together. I'll look for you again tomorrow, alright?"Minerva nodded very obediently. "See you again, sir."After Minerva left her mentor's office, she did not leave the hospital but went straight to the operating room. She saw that her uncle was making preparations at a glance. It was very clear that her uncle was the surgeon. Why was he wor
The man who had just come out of the operating room was incomparably exhausted. He looked at this woman, who was not too young, with his exhausted but gentle gaze. The hardships over the years that she had been through could be seen on her face, but she also had the purity of a naive person, which made people feel that she was incomparably pitiful when they took a look at her. The man's heart skipped a beat. "You are?"At that moment, a few nurses and also the family of the patient were crowding around the man. The patient's family did not see Isadora, Minerva, and Aino at all. They were only concerned about the patient. "Doctor Payne, may I know how my son's condition is now?"One of the assistants immediately answered, "The operation was very successful. Don't worry!"The family immediately broke into tears of joy. "Thank you. Thank you, doctor. You are my son's life savior!"While saying that, the family of the patient wanted to bow deeply to the doctor, but one of the assistant
"Holden…I miss you so much. I miss you very much. Don't leave me. Never ever leave me again, alright? I have been so pitiful being alone, Holden…"At that moment, Isadora, who was already in her thirties, was crying like a little girl. In fact, she had never had any romantic relationships. The only person she had fallen for was Holden. Therefore, she had sealed everything great in those few days she had with Holden. That was a man who had died miserably, who had only wanted a home with a sense of warmth, a garden, a farm, and loved ones in his life. Isadora understood him. She understood him very well."Holden, I have a home now. It's a house that Mister and Missus Poole had bought for me in Kidon City. I have a home and I can give you a home. You never have to be alone anymore in the future. If you don't want to go to Kidon City, you can be in South City as well. Look, you have your two nieces in South City. They miss you very much. Although we are very poor and have no money, I can
He did not have any rhyme or reason, and he did not even know her, but he said, "Alright."It was because that voice in his head had repeatedly told him to agree with her. It was because, from the bottom of his heart, he truly felt sorry for this woman before his eyes who had jumped into his arms. It was also because of that ugly and small little girl who was crying her heart out, and also that even smaller child. Vireo felt incomparably sorry for them for some reason.When she heard that, Isadora immediately lifted her head. Tears were still gushing down her cheeks, but she smiled like a sunflower in bloom. "Holden, Holden, is what you said true? You'll never leave me again? Are you truly Holden?""I am Holden," said the man."Uncle Holden…" Hearing that man say that, Minerva immediately rushed over, squeezed Isadora aside with all her might, and then put herself into Vireo's arms."Uncle Holden…" There was still another even smaller child on the outside looking at him with eager
He did not know that Isadora was calling for him. Isadora thought it was because her voice was soft, so she called out again, "Holden…"Vireo suddenly stopped in his tracks, and then he turned around to look at Isadora. "Mm-hmm?""Holden, it's quite chilly outside. When you get changed, you have to add more layers. Do you understand?"Vireo nodded. "Alright."When Vireo turned a corner, the three girls could not help themselves but held each other's hands in excitement. "Is this true?""He truly is Holden. He is your uncle. I called out to him and he answered. He is holden.""I didn't lie to you, right? He is Uncle Holden.""I also feel that this is my uncle. He looked exactly the same as my uncle. Even his voice is the same. He truly is our uncle." Although Aino did not believe it that much that he truly is her Uncle Holden. However, the world truly has such a coincidental matter. This man truly looked exactly like her uncle. This man's last name was also Payne.Other than fee
