With You For the Rest of My Life novel Chapter 56

After that, Ray was put into prison. So far, Rose hadn't gotten an explanation from her father. He neither admitted it nor denied it. He didn't even make an appeal, and accepted everything silently.

But Rose never thought that her mother would leave her forever because of this.

In Rose's eyes, her mother, Lillian, was a gentle but strong woman. She had accompanied her father for many years and experienced a lot of ups and downs, so she would not be desperate about the incident.

While three days after her father was put in prison, the news that her mother died by suicide came to her.

The police found Lillian's dead body in a water bank and found a letter that had been soaked in water. The handwriting was very vague.

According to the police and legal examiner's identification, Lillian, Rose's mother, was born alive because she could not stand the family change of her husband's imprisonment.

Even though Rose did not want to accept it, it finally happened.

With the help of relatives, Rose held a simple funeral for her mother, and buried the cremains in the cemetery on Dongping Mountain, the suburb of the city.

When people left, something happened to the Lin Family. Because of this major change, the group of people who wanted to seek ties of kinship now all moved far away. They wanted to make a clean break with Rose, not to mention help her. It was the first time for Rose to see the coldness of human heart and the cruelty of human world.

At the same time, Rose just graduated from university and was suffering a series of big blows in her life without social baptism. She used to live a dream life, but now she forced herself to become strong overnight. Her father was put in jail and her mother was dead. She would never allow herself to die, as the only one left in the Lin Family.

Thinking of that dark and gloomy time, Rose couldn't help but cry, and her heart ached fiercely.

At that time, Tina stayed by Rose's side all day long, fearing that she would take things too hard just like Lillian did. At that time, Tina and Yang secretly got the marriage license without telling their parents. They are too late to hold the wedding, but because of the misfortune of Rose's family, the wedding was temporarily delayed.

Seeing that Rose cried her face every day and often sat in bed with her eyes wandering, Tina was worried and distressed. In order to make her happy, Tina had to talk with her everyday and collected all kinds of jokes online.

But it was also because of the company of Tina that Rose calmed down day by day and gradually walked out of the haze of the family.

In Rose's heart, Tina was a warm family.

The door of memory was closed gently. The taxi driver threw the cigarette end out of the window after he smoked it and rolled up the window. Still, Rose didn't respond. She leaned her head against the window and gazed at the red banner which read, "the construction site". It had been a long time since that happened, but this was the first time for Rose to see the project in reality. This reminded her of that period of time when she was unwilling to look back. Since her father died, she rarely went shopping, and even unconsciously avoided Ninth Block.

The driver turned around and found that Rose was preoccupied. Confused as he was, he didn't ask much and just kept silent.

Having been blocked in the street for a long time, the driver impatiently honked several times, which caused a series of chain reactions. The honks of the cars on the street began to ring, making people feel more and more irritable.

Finally, the motionless troop started to move slowly, and the driver followed the speed of the cars in the front slowly out of the busy street.

The phone in her bag rang at the moment when she went into Yunshang Road. Rose opened her bag and took out her vibrating mobile phone. Looking at the name of Tina flashing on the screen, she pressed the "answer" button.

"Hello Rose. Haven't you arrived yet? I've been here for a while. Is the name of this restaurant Jasper? " Tina said impatiently.

"Yes, it's Jasper." Tina answered. Rose felt sorry for keeping Tina waiting for long time, because she had been stuck in a traffic jam for a while. Wait for me in the dining room, I'll be there soon. " Rose said apologetically. Mentioning Ninth Block's name still made her nervous.

Hearing the name of Ninth Block, Tina understood what she meant. She was worried that Rose would be unhappy when she thought about what had happened in her family, so she deliberately avoided the traffic jam and said, "Don't say sorry please, Do you want to break up with me? Okay, I'll wait for you. Take care and don't worry. "

"Okay, "Rose said softly and drew back the wire. When she and Tina were still students in the past, they also slept in the dormitory's bed for a long time every night, talking about various expectations for their future lovers. At that time, their lives were both simple and happy. They thought that as long as they fell in love with someone, they could be with each other forever. They had never thought that their future life would experience so many hardships and pains. Thinking of the terrible situation of herself and Tina, Rose was relieved and sighed deeply.

Soon, Rose arrived at the door of the restaurant. She took out her wallet, took out one hundred Yuan and handed it to the driver, whispering, "thank you, sir. You don't need to make change for it."

The taxi driver took the money and suddenly turned around to smile at Rose before she got off the taxi. "lady, it's better for you to smile. Don't always pull a long face. Anything unpleasant will be okay."

Hearing that, Rose was a little stunned, then a faint smile appeared on her face, "thank you and goodbye." She got out of the car and waved goodbye to the driver. Kindness from strangers could always make people feel particularly warm.

The driver nodded at her, rolled down the window, pressed on the gas and disappeared at the end of the street.

"Rose, here!" As soon as Rose entered the restaurant, he saw Tina waving excitedly at her in the customers waiting area.

"Sorry to be late. Are you hungry?" Rose walked quickly to Tina and asked apologetically.

"Yes, I am okay. But my baby doesn't agree with this." Said Tina with a smile, touching her lower abdomen which was not obvious.

"Baby, I'm late. You must be hungry." Smiling softly, Rose reached out her hand and covered Tina's belly.

With these thoughts in her mind, Tina took Rose's hand, put her head on Rose's shoulder, and deliberately said in a low voice, "let's go, let's go. Aunt Rose is going to treat us a dinner. We must have a good time today. "

Hand in hand, they chatted in a quiet box led by a waiter.
