The Lady at the side also hurriedly said, “Lord Evans, do you still remember what I told you before? Lily told me at that time that Bruce Wade had a particularly good brother who gave birth to a daughter, a little younger than Charlie and the two families had arranged a baby marriage for them.”
Lord Evans nodded “I remember… I remember…”
He said with a puzzled face “But… But Charlie is only eight years old this year… He… How can he have such a grown-up fiancé?”
When the people heard this, their expressions instantly got gloomy again. Originally, everyone thought that the old man had the help of the divine elixir, maybe the previous Alzheimer’s disease was also cured together. But once they heard him say that Charlie is only eight years old, they immediately realized that his memory was still stuck, at the time when his eldest daughter Lily had an accident.
Then, Desmond choked up and said, “Dad, don’t you realize that mom and we have gotten old?”
Only then did Lord Evans understand, and panicked, he blurted out, “What’s wrong with you… Guys? How come you all have aged so much?”
He couldn’t help but look at Martel and Tece and said with trepidation, “They… Both of them are…”
Desmond held back his tears, pulled Martel and Tece to his body and introduced them, “Dad! This is Martel, this is Tece, they have also grown up… Not the previous teenage lad and little girl!”
Lord Evans was full of doubts and muttered, “This… What’s going on?”
Desmond said “Dad! It’s not 20 years ago anymore… Sister and my brother-in-law have also been gone for 20 years… Charlie has also been missing for 20 years.”
Lord Evans asked with an incredulous face, “What did you say? You’re saying that Lily has been gone for 20 years?”
“Yes…” Desmond pointed to his face, “Dad, I’m fifty years old this year…”
Lord Evans froze for a moment, then burst into a rage and shouted angrily, “A bunch of trash! Twenty years have passed and you haven’t even gotten Charlie back? How can I meet Lily after I die? How can I explain it to her?”
The crowd fell into silence for a moment. At this time, no one knew how to answer the old man’s question.
It was the Lady who cried and said, “Lord Evans, all these years everyone is looking for Charlie, Desmond is looking, Marcus is looking, Martel and Tece are also looking, even you have been looking, just never found Charlie’s whereabouts…”
Lord Evans’s expression became painful, covered his face and said, “All of this is my fault… It’s all my fault!”
The Lady hurriedly stroked his hand and sobbed “Lord Evans, you’ve been blaming yourself for twenty years, it’s hard to come back from the ghost gate, don’t torture yourself anymore, for those things back then, it’s not all your responsibility…”
Lord Evans gently shook his head, then he suddenly remembered something excitedly looking at Stefanie, while struggling to sit up, while asking “Little girl… You… You said you are Charlie’s fiancé… That you… That you have found Charlie?”
Stefanie’s eyes see the old man just walked from the ghost gate, at this time the whereabouts of Charlie are an extra concern, she really does not want to tell lies to him.
But once she thought of Charlie’s explanation, she could only say helplessly, “Sorry, Grandpa… We haven’t found Charlie’s whereabouts yet.”
Hearing these words, the excitement in Lord Evans’s eyes dimmed considerably.
He could not help but shed two lines of hot tears and choked “I, as a grandfather, have not found the whereabouts of Charlie for so many years, now only to be saved by Charlie’s fiancé when I reached the ghost gate… I am ashamed… So ashamed…”
