Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose) -
Chapter 2194
Baby Zetty's eyes were red, and helpless tears were escaping from them. "So you do care about my age and how ugly I am."
Finn looked at her in astonishment and felt that Granny Winter was simply unreasonable. He was getting slightly angry and said, "Granny, perhaps my actions have caused you to misunderstand. I'd like to sincerely say sorry to you because of it. I thought that given our age gap, you could act within the boundaries even if I were to treat you well. I was merely doing everything as an act of friendship."
Baby Zetty started weeping bitterly. She knew very well that she should not be saying these disgraceful words, but it was out of her control. She wanted to feel his love for her again before leaving this world. She knew that this was unfair to Finn. However, she was selfish and wanted him to accompany her, despite her being in the shell of an old grandmother, in the name of love. After Finn said these words, he hastily left.
Baby Zetty was unwilling to accept this. If she had not revealed her love for Finn and if they bid farewell as friends in the end, Baby Zetty would have been satisfied with that ending. However, what was there left for her now?
Finn would leave her side with a misunderstanding against her, feeling nothing but contempt for her. How could she be willing to accept such an ending?
Baby Zetty was anxious and flying into a rage out of humiliation. She decided to press her luck all of a sudden.
"Finn!" she roared out to him.
Finn hid at the entrance and did not turn around. He merely asked coldly, "Do you have anything else to add?"
Baby Zetty hesitated for a moment before she mustered up the courage to walk toward Finn.
"Finn, aren't you curious as to why I showed up in Sacred Land?"
Finn turned around and looked at her suspiciously.
Truthfully, he had always been curious about it. Granny Winter could barely walk. How did she manage to climb Sacred Land's rugged mountain road? Baby Zetty urgently questioned again, "Aren't you curious as to why I put myself in danger's way when I'm this old just to come to Sacred Land?
"Aren't you curious about who I buried next to the sunflower field that day?
"Aren't you curious who passed me these medical skills?"
Finn was curious to know the answers, but he was somewhat afraid that this overly sentimental old woman would misunderstand his intentions once more. He said coldly, "I don't concern myself with your matters."
Afterward, he set out to leave.
Baby Zetty fell to the ground, and she wept in anguish.
After Finn walked out, his heart was still filled with doubts.
What kind of mystery was there behind Baby Zetty's questions earlier?
Even from his pace and heavy steps, one could tell that he was feeling depressed.
At this moment, he could hear a sad yet graceful and subdued tune being played by Granny Winter behind him.
When Finn heard this familiar melody, he thought that Granny Winter was playing Meeting One Another. There were many similarities between Meeting One Another and Forgetting One Another, which he created.
However, after listening more, Finn's eyes were filled with astonishment.
This was not Meeting One Another that Granny had altered; it was his Forgetting One Another.
The part which baffled Finn most was that there were several complicated notes that Granny Winter failed to hit, and those were the same notes that Baby Zetty could not seem to get past no matter how much she tried back then.
When Granny Winter rearranged Meeting One Another, few of the notes in that specific part of the song had deliberately been changed. Hence, he did not seem to notice the problem earlier. Finn's footsteps stopped.
At that moment, all of the answers to those questions came to him.
Granny Winter seemed to be suffering from an illness that accelerated her aging process. She was still physically strong when she went up the mountain, but after spending some time here, that was when she lost the ability to trek the mountain road.
As for the person she had buried beside the sunflower field, it was her grandmother, Mr. Boye.
