Isabella kept her head low.
She wouldn't look at the tombstone.
But it was not up to Isabella. That decision lay with John and Nina.
John gave Richard a look. Richard picked Isabella up, and tossed her in front of the tombstone.
"Look carefully. This is the tomb of Kristina and Albert." Nina stepped forward and gripped Isabella's jaw, forcing her to look up.
Isabella looked up, and saw the black and white photo of Albert and Kristina. She stared at them with fear, shock and doubt in her eyes.
"No, it's impossible. How could that be?" Isabella shook her head, but her eyes were fixed on the photo. Cold tears poured out like a burst dam.
When Nina let go of her hand, Isabella began to step back, crying and laughing in disbelief.
"How could this happen? How could Mr. Song die? You're lying to me. Liars!"
Isabella suddenly stopped. She put her hands on the ground to support her weak body.
She sat there listlessly, staring at the tombstone, as if all her strength had been drained from her.
She seemed to be trying to come to grips with it.
There was ps, everyone looked over and found that it was the police.
Glenn's body froze. Just now he thought John was joking, but he didn't think he acted on his words.
He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and looked at his wife and daughter sitting on the ground. He knew there was a reckoning due.
Nina said coldly, "Now you have a choice: apologize to the dead, or the family of the dead. But I don't think they'll accept your apology.
A life was taken, after all."
Glenn's face turned pale and he was sweating.
Did someone die?
Amelia was also a little confused, but her daughter tried to hide in her arms. She knew someone was really dead.
"Look over there." Schooled by Nina, Glenn and Amelia turned their heads.
There was a tombstone there.
The black and white photo on the tombstone frightened Amelia. Glenn staggered and pointed at the tombstone with trembling hands."But aren't they on a trip? Sightseeing around the world? That's not possible!"
"How did they die? Why don't you ask Isabella that question?" Nina didn't show any kindness to the couple.
