Flash Marriage: She becomes Mrs. CEO after the Failed Dowry Talk Chapter 247: The Anniversary Is Approaching
Unlike Nora Northwood, Jasper Sinclair maintained a leisurely composure.
Seeing she was silent, he smoothed things over, saying, "I still want to enjoy a little more of our ti together."
Southwood Court.
"My parents’ anniversary of their death is coming up." Jasper Sinclair suddenly said.
His deceased parents were buried in the cetery.
Nora saw the emptiness in his eyes and gently embraced him, "When shall we visit mom and dad?"
"The day after tomorrow."
"Alright, I’ll go with you." Nora’s tone was filled with sincerity.
Jasper hugged her back, resting his weight on her shoulder, seeking a mont of emptiness.
The anniversary of the death, on that day.
The two of them went to the cetery early in the morning. Throughout the journey, Jasper’s mood was sowhat low.
Nora tried to find topics to ease the oppressive atmosphere: "Jasper, have you thought about how you will introduce your wife to mom and dad?"
Her words enlightened Jasper; it seed he had never considered this.
Nora continued, "Will you say Grandma Sinclair brought back? Or that it was a marriage arranged by a blind date?"
Between the two, both were and weren’t entirely true.
After a while, Jasper finally said, "She’s soone who can accompany for a lifeti."
He still rembered the day Nora said she wanted children.
"Jasper, every year from now on, I’ll join you in visiting mom and dad, okay?"
"Okay."
Nora’s words filled Jasper’s heart with warmth.
Half an hour later, the car stopped in the parking lot near the cetery.
The two got out one after the other, both dressed in black with dark hair, looking from afar like a pair of noble lovers.
Nora held flowers in one hand and tightly grasped Jasper’s with the other, saying, "Let’s go."
Perhaps because they arrived early, there weren’t many people inside the cetery.
The two walked together towards the inside.
In the past, Jasper always felt heavy-hearted when visiting his parents, but this ti, with Nora’s company, his state was not as tense.
Soon, they reached the headstone.
Nora divided the chrysanthemums she was holding, giving a bundle to Jasper, and then, both crouched down to place them by the gravestone.
Jasper took a handkerchief from his pocket and slowly wiped the dust off the gravestone.
Only after finishing did he finally speak, "Dad, mom, I’m here with your daughter-in-law to see you."
"Her na is Nora Northwood, a very gentle girl. If you were alive, you’d surely like her as much as Grandma..."
Jasper’s mouth grew dry as he recounted many changes from the past year.
Nora listened quietly, recalling the ti from when they first t until now, realizing just a few more months would make it a full year.
After the man finished talking, she solemnly said, "Dad, mom, I’m Nora Northwood. I’m sorry to et you in this way. Jasper and I are doing well, and in the days to co, I’ll take good care of him for you."
Then, Nora went back to the car first, allowing Jasper so ti alone there.
When they t again, she caught a faint sll of tobacco, "Jasper, you’ve been smoking."
"Is the sll strong?"
"No, just a little."
Jasper almost forgot that her sensitivity to slls was more than double that of ordinary people, so he added, "I won’t smoke next ti."
Nora roughly understood that he wasn’t addicted to smoking, probably just wanted to vent his emotions in this way.
