Cooper’s car drove off, leaving Sophia alone in this tiny house in the suburb.

Cold breeze brushed by, bringing along the bone-chilling coldness of the snow that had yet to melt. In this suburban house without a centralized heater, Sophia could only keep herself warm at the fireplace. Nicholas and Shae stood next to her in an orderly manner, protecting and accompanying her.

Looking at the fire in the fireplace, she zoned out as she sat on the couch. The book that she was holding in her hands had not been flipped for quite some time. She had no idea how long she had to stay here.

Although she had been here for barely a few hours, she had already started to miss her home.

She missed her home, father, brother, Carmen, Michael, her dogs and cats…

She looked outside the window in a daze. As the snow had not melted, everything that entered her sight was white. The car tyre marks on the ground, which were made when Cooper drove away, gradually vanished from sight. It was so quiet here that it felt like she was in a place hidden away from the rest of the world. There was a small hill in the distance, stopping any visitors from the outside world from probing into where she was.

The place made her calm down and allowed her to start thinking.

She soon realized that she had had an amazing life.

She had once forgotten, had once lost, had once been lonely, and had once been miserable, but all those were things of the past, and now, she was happy.

Unfortunately, she still had many regrets in her life—Carmen had not grown up yet; she was unable to age together with Michael; and Cooper was going to watch another child die. Her death would be too cruel to them.

All of a sudden, she saw something gradually moving toward her from a distance.

She opened the door, and the chilling wind that blew at her made her wrap herself tighter in her clothes. However, the thin layer of clothing was no match to the coldness of early spring.

When the thing came closer, she realized that it was a jeep.
