Chapter 1994: Passed Away

"Sect Leader Farlow, thank you!"

Rachel said to Noel with a smile when she saw the car arrive.

"Miss Wallace, please don't say that. I should be the one thanking you!" Noel quickly said.

Rachel was not in the mood to be polite with Noel, so she directly dragged Connor into the car.

A moment later, the Mercedes-Benz started and drove out of the Misty Sect.

Noel hesitated for two seconds before she took out her phone and made a call.

..

At the same time, in the Mercedes-Benz.

Rachel's expression seemed to be a little nervous as she kept looking at the scenery outside the car window.

Connor turned his head to look at Rachel and asked Rachel softly, "You seem very nervous!"

"Why would I be?" Rachel didn't even think about it and directly retorted. "I'm just a little worried!"

"Worried?"

Connor was stunned when he heard this. He frowned and asked, "What are you worried about?"

"I haven't seen my grandparents for many years. I don't know if they still remember me, nor do I know if they will be angry with me. What if they don't recognize me at all when they see me?" Rachel muttered.

"Don't worry. No matter what, you're still their grandchild. They'll definitely acknowledge you!" Connor comforted..

Rachel turned her head to look at Connor, then said softly, "I hope it's as you say!"

Connor smiled and didn't say anything else.

About an hour later, they finally arrived at a courtyard house.

Rachel looked at the red door in front of her, and her face revealed a trace of gentleness. She said to Connor softly, "I didn't expect that after so many years, this place still hasn't changed. I remember that it was like this when I was very young, and it's still like this now!"

"Knock on the door!"

Connor said softly.

Rachel hesitated for a moment before walking to the front of the door and gently knocking on it.

However, after she knocked on the door, there was no movement inside for a long time.

Rachel's expression changed as she frowned and shouted, "Is anyone there?"

"Who is it?"

A few seconds later, the person behind the door finally responded.

The door slowly opened, and a middle-aged woman walked out. Then, she sized up Rachel and Connor with a puzzled expression and asked cautiously, "Who are you looking for?"

Rachel looked at the middle-aged woman in front of her and hesitated for a moment. Then, she asked softly, "Aunt, is that you?"

When the woman heard Rachel's words, she suddenly raised her head and looked at Rachel. After observing for a long time, she asked with a trembling voice, "Rae, is that you?"

"That's right, Aunt. You finally recognized me?"

Rachel shouted happily.

"Rachel, it really is you!"

The woman's expression was also very excited. She hurriedly pulled Rachel's hand and said, "Rachel, we haven't seen each other for so many years. The last time you came, you were still a child. Now, you're already a big girl. You're really too beautiful."

"Aunt, so many years have passed, but you're still so beautiful!"

Rachel replied with a smile.

"I'm already so old, how can I still be pretty? You really know how to talk!"

Her aunt smiled, then turned to look at Connor and asked softly, "Rachel, who is this?"

"Aunt Fiona, this is my boyfriend, Connor!"

Rachel hurriedly introduced him and then said to Connor, "Connor, this is my uncle's wife, Fiona!"

"Hello!"

Connor took the initiative to greet her.

"Hello, hello. This young man looks like a talented person. He is really too compatible with our Rachel…" Fiona smiled and replied to Connor.

At this moment, Rachel's mood did not seem to be so nervous anymore. She asked Fiona softly, "Aunt, are Grandpa and Grandma at home? I specially came to see them…"

Fiona's expression grew a little strange when she heard this. She said softly, "Um, Rachel, come in with your boyfriend first. Don't just stand here!"

"Good!"

Rachel didn't seem to think too much and followed Fiona into the courtyard.

After entering the courtyard, Rachel suddenly felt that something was not right because this courtyard seemed to have not been cleaned for a long time.

However, in Rachel's memories, her grandfather, Lawrence Strickland, was a very clean person. He also liked to raise some flowers and plants in the courtyard. However, there were no flowers and plants in the courtyard at all. It gave off the feeling of death.

"Grandpa, Grandma, I'm here to see you!"

Rachel didn't think too much about it and directly shouted into the house.

However, no one responded at all.

At this moment, Fiona, who was standing behind Rachel, suddenly spoke.

"Rachel, I have something to tell you!"

Rachel turned to look at Fiona and asked softly, "Aunt, where are my grandparents? Could it be that they no longer live here?"

"It's not that you don't want to live here anymore. Your grandparents passed away a year ago!"

Fiona said in a low voice.

"What?"

After Rachel heard Fiona's words, she was stunned on the spot, disbelief on her face.

"Rachel, come in with me!"

Fiona brought Rachel into a room.

Connor hesitated for a moment before following them in. After entering the room, Connor found a table in front of the room, and on the table was the memorial tablet of the Strickland family.

Not only were there the memorial tablets of Rachel's grandparents, but also Rachel's other two uncles.

This also meant that other than Rachel's uncle, the rest of the Strickland family were all dead.

Rachel looked at the memorial tablet in front of her as tears fell. Then, she knelt in front of the memorial tablet and said with a choked voice, "Grandpa, grandma, it's my fault for being unfilial. I didn't even know that the two of you had passed away…"

"Rachel, it's not your fault. After all, we didn't contact you at that time!"

Fiona comforted softly.

Rachel turned her head and asked, "Aunt, can I be alone with my grandparents for a while?"

"Alright, alright…"

Fiona hurriedly nodded, then turned around and walked out of the room.

After hesitating for a moment, Connor followed her out.

Rachel stayed alone in the mourning hall for about an hour before walking out.
