Chapter 276 A Man from a Big City

Sky knew that if he knocked on the door, he would see Rose.

Before he decided to come here, he was full of enthusiasm, with only one idea in his heart that he
wanted to see her immediately. But he did not have that impulse after he was close at hand with her.

He was afraid that Rose would not want to see him and would not forgive him. He himself did not have
the face to meet her and ask for forgiveness.

He was a complete jerk!

Sky slowly withdrew the hand that was about to knock on the door, and then turned and walked away.

He dressed casually, carrying a black backpack, with a black luggage in his hand, and then left silently.

Sky had not gone far before he heard a familiar laughter.

He hurried to a corner and hid, poking his head out to look at Rose's grandfather, Rose, and Doris, who
were coming back down the path.

They might have gone to the farm, as they had picked some vegetables back, talking and laughing
happily.

Sky had not seen Rose laughing so heartedly for a long time, as if she had returned to when she was
16. How much he missed that time. They were so young and sweet by then, but finally they had lost to
the reality and Sophie's scheming mind.

Sky clenched his hand and felt his eyes sore.

"We're home at last." Doris said in a childlike voice.



Grandpa unlocked the door, pushed it open, and the three entered, one after the other, and then they
shut the door.

Sky looked at the closed door for a while, slowly unclenched his fist, and then left.

By now it was too late to go back to the county and find a place to live, and Sky didn't plan to leave
here.

He found a house not far away, which was just across the street from the Young family. There were
fields and some fish ponds around here, and Sky could see Rose's and grandpa's activities.

"Auntie, I am going to stay here for about a week. I will give you some money." Sky then took out three
thousand from his wallet and gave it to a fat woman.

Sky knew that cash was often used in the countryside, so he brought some with him.

The fat woman was joyful when she saw so much money, "That's a lot. You've only been here for a few
days, and our conditions are just so-so... I... I charge you fifteen hundred."

She counted the money and wanted to give the other fifteen hundred back to Sky. Sky refused to
accept it, saying, "I still need something to eat these days. So, I might trouble you. Please just accept
it."

Seeing that Sky was so generous, the fat woman did not return the money back, "Well, then I will
accept it. Mr. Tanner, if you need anything, just let me know. Have a good rest."

"Thank you."

After seeing off the fat woman Sky looked around at the environment here.



He stayed in the biggest room on the second floor. It was simple, but clean. It was far from the big
house in the city, but it was worth it as he could be so close to Rose.

He stood by the window, looking in the direction of the Young family, hoping to see Rose.

Rose helped Doris take a bath and then changed the clothes. Grandfather had already killed the fish
when she came out.

"Doris, we're having fish today. Do you like it?" Grandpa washed the fish and then put it into a small
basin.

"Yes, Grandpa's cooking skill is so great that I feel I have gained weight." Doris touched her face with
her hands. "Mom, do you think Dougie will still remember me when I go back?"

"He has to record albums, hold concerts, shoot commercials, and has a variety of shows... He is so
busy. Would he have time to see you?" Rose damped her daughter's enthusiasm.

Doris sighed with frustration. "I'm afraid brother Dougie has already forgotten me because he's so
busy."

Doris reached into her lapel and pulled out the necklace Dougie had given her. Her fingers ran over the
letters on the pendant, and she felt her heart ache.

"All right." Rose reached out and rubbed her hair. "If he forgets you, he won't forget this necklace. He
must always remember his own things."

"Yes, if he forgets me, I will show him this necklace, and he will surely remember me." Doris smiled
again.

Children changed so fast. Doris looked gloomy a second ago, but then she was happy a moment later.



Rose looked at Doris and sighed that it was so great to be a child. The annoyance lasted only two
seconds and then disappeared.

But adults were always upset by the annoyance and couldn't sleep well and eat well.

Rose looked up at the sky and thought of Bright in the distance. How was he? Was he angry that she
had been gone these days? What was on his mind when he found that her phone had turned off?

Had he been utterly disappointed by her? Had he signed the divorce agreement? Were they already
strangers now?

Too many questions collided in her heart.

Oh...

"Mom, I miss Daddy. I want to call Daddy." Doris tugged at the hem of Rose's dress, drawing her mind
back.

Rose squatted down and took Doris's little hand. "You can't get a cell phone here. Doris has to keep
her missing in heart."

"When are we going home? I'm afraid Dad can't take care of himself when he's alone at home." Doris
was worried.

Well, it was said that daughter is the father's lover in the last life. That seemed to be true. She started
to miss her father when she just left home for two days.

"Dad is an adult. He'll take care of himself. And there's Mr. Bill and an aunt at home. Don't worry." Rose
calmed Doris. "Mom, did you have quarrels with Dad?" Children were sensitive, and Doris was no
exception.



"How come?" Rose was nervous when asked, "Mom hasn't seen Grandpa for many years, and it's the
first time for you to meet Grandpa. Shall we spend time with him?"

"Yes." Doris nodded knowingly.

"Then go and help grandfather." Rose took Doris's hand and went to the kitchen.

Rose and Doris lit the fire for Grandpa. Grandpa cooked the fish on the stove. Soon the smell of
cooking fish filled the room.

"Wow, it smells good." Doris sniffed the rich aroma and licked her lips, like a greedy kitten.

"You are drooling. Hurry to wash your hands, and dinner is ready." Grandpa smiled at Doris.

"Great."

Just as they were about to have dinner, someone knocked at the door.

Grandfather wiped his hand and then answered the door. Rose and Doris stood nearby. It was the
neighbor, Arya.

"Mr. Wilfred, do you have visitors? I can smell the fish you cooked." Arya smiled.

"No." Grandfather shook his head.

"I saw a handsome man standing by your house today, dressed like he's from an urban
area."
