CHAPTER 1131
Chapter 1131 “I won’t go with you. Suit yourself then.” Josiah’s determination slightly angered Meredith, she said, “I’m going to visit Charlie today. You can go busy with your own things.”
Josiah wanted to tell her he was free for the next few days because he had pre-arranged all of his work ahead of time, but he could tell Meredith wanted to go alone, she was not worried if Josiah had the time or not. Thus, Josiah decided to keep it to himself.
As expected, Meredith went to the cemetery alone, what she did not expect to see at Charlie’s tombstone was Kimberly. After Charlie’s burial, she had never seen this woman anymore. Maybe Kimberly was related to Charlie, she did not think of Kimberly as a stranger.
Kimberly saw her too. Neither one of them spoke.
“Miss Jackson, it’s been a long time since I last saw you.” Meredith initiated the conversation.
“Yes. Almost a year.” Kimberly smiled at her. “I thought you have forgotten Charlie.”
“I would never,” Meredith said without explaining further.
She walked over and put the sunflower bouquet next to the sunflower bouquet Kimberly bought. Then she stood up straight and looked at Charlie’s photo on the tombstone. “Charlie was my husband. I couldn’t have possibly forgotten him so easily.”
Kimberly looked at Charlie’s photo too. she said peacefully, ” Actually, there’s nothing wrong about forgetting him. I bet he wants you to forget him as quickly as possible.” “Yes, he told me that before,” Meredith said.
“He did?” Kimberly did not understand.
“I received Charlie’s e-mail during my birthday around six months ago.” Meredith inhaled, “Charlie said he hope I could put him in the past and continue to live my life together with Josiah and Nia.”
Then she continued talking while facing Charlie’s tombstone in a soft voice, “Charlie, I have been trying very hard to put everything behind me and accept a new life. I believe I can do it and I also believe you will support me. Right?”
“Of course,” Kimberly answered on behalf of Charlie. “Charlie told me, he finally understood one thing. If you love someone, you want her to be happy.”
Nothing else was the best proof other than Charlie’s thoughts.
Meredith looked at Kimberly gratefully. “Thank you for telling me this and thank you for your encouragement.” Original content from .
“You don’t have to thank me. I’m just doing it for Charlie.” Kimberly bid Meredith goodbye, “I’ll leave now. Take your time.”
After Kimberly left, Meredith stood at her usual place just like before. She finally talked after a while, “Charlie, it’s almost the new year again. I was so selfish for letting you spend the new year alone last year…I’m really sorry.”
She did not finish her sentence because it was torture for her to walk down memory lane once again.
“It will be the new year without you in this world this year. I think I won’t be used to it. But don’t worry, I will be fine. You won’t have to worry about me.”
Her phone rang. She took it out and saw it was Josiah’s number calling. After a little hesitation, she accepted the call right in front of Charlie’s tombstone.
“Edith, I saw it’s going to rain from the weather forecast so I came to pick you up,” Josiah said thoughtfully.
“I drove here myself,” Meredith answered back.
“The road at the cemetery is not that good. I’ll let Walter drive your car back later,” Josiah insisted.
Meredith said nothing and hung up the phone. Then she looked at Charlie’s photo again. “Charlie, I’m going back now. I’ll come to see you again when I’m free.”
