First Love's Return, Heiress Strikes Back

Chapter 569 Lennon stood outside the door and listened for a while, but in the end, he still didn't go in.

The sky was gloomy. Then it started to drizzle, continuously and densely.

Lennon walked to the entrance of the hospital and looked up at the oppressive and gloomy sky. His mind wandered.

Maybe it was really impossible for him and Mariela to be together.

Royce, his father, who was only fifty-two years old, was dying.

When he was five years old, Royce's illegitimate child was exposed. His mother and Royce had a fierce argument about getting a divorce, but in the end, due to the pressure from both families, the marriage did not end in divorce.

He could already remember what happened back then at the age of five.

Those bad memories took root in his heart.

He vividly remembered all the grievances his mother had suffered, remembered the image of his mother crying alone in the room, remembered every argument between his parents, and remembered the disgust in Royce's eyes.

He knew that Royce did not love his mother, nor did Royce love him.

Lennon had never experienced love from his father since he was young.

From childhood to adulthood, his relationship with Royce has always been distant.

He thought that he wouldn't be sad when Royce died.

But when Royce was really dying, he realized he couldn't remain indifferent.

Not far away, a middle-aged man was holding a little boy in one hand and holding an umbrella in the other, hurriedly walking towards the entrance of the hospital.

Soon, the man walked up to Lennon.

At the entrance of the hospital, the man put away the umbrella, lowered his head, and whispered softly to the little boy in his arms, "Baby, don't cry. I will take you to see the doctor, and the pain will be gone soon.* Lennon's heart trembled.

His gaze was stuck to the father and the child, as if glued, unable to move away no matter what.

The little boy looked to be only one or two years old, very tiny.

The man was wearing the uniform of a factory, which was dark blue in color, with the factory's nembroidered on the chest.

Lennon noticed the man's hands, rough and dark, covered in calluses.

With such rough hands, he held the body extremely gently, exuding a strong fatherly love.

10 45 99.5% < Chapter 569 On that weathered face, there was nothing but anxiety and worry.

He had hardly ever seen such an expression on Royce's face.

Oh, no, he saw it once.

That year, Royce brought Nikolas back to the country and asked his grandparents to recognize Nikolas.

His grandpa and grandma disagreed and didn't even let them in the house.

Royce knelt down at the door with Nikolas in his arms, refusing to get up.

The weather that day was the sas today.

It was gloomy and oppressive, making people hard to breathe.

It soon started raining.

Royce took off his coat and covered it over Nikolas's head, shielding him from the wind and rain.

But Nikolas still got wet in the rain and caught a cold. He developed a fever.

Royce's anxious expression was exactly the sas that of this father.

Lennon watched silently, his heart aching heavily.

The man hurriedly walked away while holding the child.

Lennon withdrew his gaze and looked at the vast curtain of rain in front of him.

Sgirls at the entrance blushed and occasionally stole glances at him, whispering to each other.

Lennon was indifferent to everything.

He stepped into the vast curtain of rain.

At night, in Lennon's base...

"Mr. Stark, I found Georgia's grave," Matthew whispered to Lennon, “Nikolas built a cemetery for Georgia in a remote village in Naples, Italy." Matthew handed the file bag to Lennon, saying, "Georgia and Nikolas settled there when they first arrived in Italy. They lived here for five years, and Georgia died here." Lennon opened the file bag.

That was a thick stack.

There were photos of the small wooden house they lived in, as well as sold photos of Nikolas and Georgia. Matthew said, "This is the residence of Nikolas and Georgia at that time. Over th always has people cleaning it.

s, Nikolas 10:45 99.5% ( Chapter 569 According to the cleaning guy, the locals would cremate the dead before burying them. After Georgia died, the villagers cremated her. Nikolas collected sof Georgia's ashes in memory of her. At the tof Georgia's death, Nikolas did not have the ability to build a grand cemetery for her. It's built a little later, with Georgia's clothes and jewelry buried inside.

"Later, Nikolas went to many places, but Georgia's ashes were always kept in that wooden house. He even specially assigned someone to guard it. Every year on Georgia's birthday and memorial day, he would go back to pay tribute." "Did you open the grave to examine what's inside?" Lennon's eyes gleamed with a cold light, his voice icy. Matthew replied, "Yes. There's indeed only clothes and jewelry," "What about Georgia's ashes?" Lennon's eyes were dark. It was hard to tell what he was thinking "Here." Matthew made a gesture to his subordinates.

One of the subordinates immediately ran out. In a short while, he cback holding a dark and gloomy jar.

Matthew took the jar from his subordinate and said, “Mr. Stark, this is Georgia's ashes." Lennon stared at the jar in Matthew's hand, his eyes deep and mysterious.

More than twenty years ago, Georgia went to confront Lennon's mother, who had not yet recovered from childbirth, with an illegitimate child in her belly, causing his mother to suffer from postpartum depression and almost jump off a building. Georgia made the Stark family a mess.

More than twenty years later, Georgia's illegitimate child once again caused trouble for the Stark family.

Everything Nikolas did to the Logan family and the Stark family was for revenge.

It was all to vent for Georgia.

Since he was so filial, if he knew that his mother's grave had been dug up, he would definitely be devastated.

Nikolas almost killed Mariela and instructed Lauryn to poison and kill Royce. So, it wasn't excessive to scatter his mother's ashes in front of him, right? Lennon sneered.

"I want to see Nikolas." Lennon went through sprocedures to meet Nikolas.

Nikolas was currently being detained, awaiting the court's verdict.

His case was very complicated, involving not only intentional murder but also multiple other (Chapter 569 serious crimes.

The Stark family exerted pressure and specifically instructed that m Nikhat's case should br thoroughly investigated and strictly dealt with, At this moment...

In a small and cramped room, there was a dimly lit lamp.

Nikolas sat across from Lennon, with his hands handcuffed and his feet shackled
