Chapter 449: Chapter 449

Kyle Kinston’s parents, Easton Kinston and Regina Zeller, are buried in a cemetery in Falling City. When Mabel Quinn stood with Kyle in front of the tombstone, looking at the photos of the man and woman on it, she felt an inexplicable melancholy.

Easton Kinston’s photo was something she had seen online before. However, it was the first time she had seen Regina Zeller’s picture. The woman in the photo was dazzling and captivating, appearing to be in her prime. From the contours of her face, one could find traces of Kyle’s features; yet, who would have thought that such a woman would have such an impact on Kyle’s childhood.

Perhaps for Regina Zeller, she never wanted to give birth to Kyle. But regardless, Mabel felt a sense of gratitude in her heart, because after all, Regina did give birth to Kyle and even raised him until he was nine years old.

As for Easton Kinston, the man in the photo was handsome, with his striking phoenix eyes being particularly noticeable. Kyle also had such phoenix eyes, which gave Mabel a sense of closeness towards Easton Kinston as she looked at the photo.

Such a seemingly well-matched couple, yet it ended in tragedy. In life, they were not together, but in death, they were buried together.

"Your features are more like your father’s, but the contour of your face is very much like your mother’s," Mabel said, taking out a tissue to wipe the dust off the tombstone. "Your mother really was beautiful."

"Really? The photo on my mother’s tombstone was chosen from the ones my father kept, but in my memory, she was skinny, often drunk, disheveled, with messy hair, completely unrelated to beauty."

Mabel was taken aback and couldn’t help but ask, "Why did your mother leave your father?"

"Because she hated my father," Kyle replied. "Because of my father, he destroyed the person she loved the most." So, her escape, even her death, was the biggest punishment for my father.

Mabel was completely stunned.

She had guessed many reasons, but never imagined it would be because of this. Even though Kyle had said only a simple sentence at this moment, she could imagine how much hardship and tragedy lay within it.

He looked at her dazed expression and lowered his eyes slightly, saying, "Does it seem frightening? The Kinston Family, to get what they love, will stop at nothing. It’s just that my father overlooked my mother’s determination and hatred."

But if my father were to choose again, perhaps he would still make the same choice, because Kinston Family wouldn’t allow their fate to lie in anyone else’s hands.

Mabel pressed her lips together, shaking her head, "I just feel a bit bittersweet, and besides, this is only what your father did. If it were you, you would definitely not be ."

His gaze deepened, "How do you know I wouldn’t do the same? To get you, I would do whatever it takes as well."

"You’re not like that," she said. "I know, you wouldn’t really bear to hurt me, because you love me, just like I love you."

His body stiffened slightly. Did she...really know what kind of person he was? If she knew everything that had happened, would she still think the same?

Her hand held his, warmth spreading from her touch. "Kyle, we’re not your parents. I think we will definitely be very good and happy."
