Chapter 1456: As If a Lifetime Ago

The response to Jorge Saxton was Jose Floyd’s car speeding away swiftly, leaving Jorge Saxton far behind.

Jorge Saxton shouted a curse at the shadow of Jose Floyd’s car and hurriedly followed.

The cemetery was very quiet.

Jose Floyd stopped his car and directly barged into the cemetery, immediately spotting the new tombstone, surrounded by wreaths.

Jose Floyd’s feet felt as heavy as lead, his body somewhat unstable as he moved towards the tombstone.

As he got closer, the image of the person smiling on the tombstone came into view, as if from another world.

"Nicole Seys - you truly are the most ruthless person I’ve ever met!" Jose Floyd gazed at the photo on the tombstone, his eyes reddened, whispering hoarsely, "How could you be so heartless... If the outcome wasn’t me having you, why did you appear in the first place..."

"Nicole Seys, you taught me love, yet left halfway through, how could you always be so cruel!"

"Since you couldn’t spend a lifetime with me, why did you offer your hand to me back then?... Nicole Seys, do you think by returning the ring and necklace, you can sever all ties with me! Today I’ll dig up your grave and take you back to Italy! You’ll never be able to distance yourself from me for a lifetime!"

As Jose Floyd spoke, his gaze shifted to the stones beside the cemetery, and he grabbed a stone to fiercely smash Nicole Seys’s grave! He wanted to break open this cold tomb and take Nicole Seys away.

"Jose Floyd, you madman! She’s dead! Can you stop disturbing her peace like a lunatic!" Jorge Saxton stepped forward to stop Jose Floyd, shouting angrily, "If you keep destroying the cemetery, just wait to be put on the cemetery’s blacklist and never set foot in this graveyard again. Is that what would make you happy?"

Jose Floyd looked coldly at Jorge Saxton, tightly clutching the stone in his palm, his brows showing indifference.

Langdon Seal snatched the stone from Jose Floyd’s hand, pointed at the tombstone, and said in a deep voice, "Jose, look closely, this is her grave! Nicole Seys is dead! The facts are right in front of you, everyone knows she’s dead, do you still refuse to believe it?!"

Yes, everyone kept telling him Nicole Seys was dead, but he didn’t believe it! He wanted to dig up her grave to see for sure! If... if Nicole Seys truly was dead, he would take her back to Italy! Even if she’s gone, he would bring her to the Manor Estate in Italy to be with him forever.

"Let her go, Jose, the Seys Family has accepted her departure, will you still pretend to be deaf and dumb? Nicole Seys can never come back in this lifetime."

Jorge Saxton and Langdon Seal’s words echoed in his ears, while Jose Floyd gazed coldly at the person smiling on the tombstone, "Nicole Seys, I said I’d marry you... and you just looked down on it! Nicole Seys... fine then, I’ll pretend I never liked you either, just go if you want to!"

"Actually, you’ve always been ruthless, cruel to me, even crueler to yourself! Nicole Seys..."

Jose Floyd stopped looking at the photo on the tombstone and turned around resolutely to leave.

His back was indifferent, his steps extremely unsteady.

Jorge Saxton and Langdon Seal closely followed behind, watching Jose Floyd, who appeared hollow and lost, their hearts heavy.

Suddenly, the figure in front of them fell straight down, and Langdon Seal and Jorge Saxton were startled, quickly catching Jose Floyd and swiftly leading him away from the cemetery.

-

Ever since leaving the cemetery, when Jose Floyd awoke again, he never uttered a word, always holding Nicole Seys’s last necklace and diamond ring, his eyes deep red, refusing food and drink.

No matter how Langdon Seal and Jorge Saxton tried to persuade him, it was to no avail; Jose Floyd seemed completely disconnected from the outside world, immersed in the pain of losing Nicole Seys...
