Chapter 1443 The Disappointment
I noticed a shift in his emotions. I asked softly while looking at him, "It's different now, isn't it?"
"Yeah." His eyes swept across the layout of the entire west side, and he said coldly, "It's no longer the same as before."
I knew exactly why Atlas was angry. If the place had been tampered with, the chances of us finding any traces of the past were basically zero.
Not to mention any signs of where my mother had left things.
Putting his arm around my shoulder and patting it, Atlas reassured me, "I had expected as much."
Despite his words, his expression was depressing. I knew there was still some anger in him because he couldn't help me recall the past and felt regretful.
"But this also indicates something..." Atlas finished speaking and looked at me.
I looked up at him and continued his thought, "Even if she changed the house, she still couldn't find anything of value by accident! In other words, the things aren't in this building!" His eyes skittered over his surroundings, and I knew instantly his intention. I said nothing more.
The modifications in the internal details here were reasonable, considering it had been 20 years. It wouldn't be the same after Celine came in. After all, she felt guilty!
She had to find a way to change or erase any signs of our two families living here.
Although I didn't remember what it was like before, I thought the main structure was still there.
"When was the last time you came back?" I asked.
Atlas thought for a moment and said, "It's been many years since I came back here. The last time I came back, it was still the same, but now everything has changed!" I scoffed, "She thinks that by changing the layout, it's really hers?"
"We're working on it," Atlas patted my shoulder reassuringly.
A sense of disappointment permeated between the two of us. We both knew that the chances of finding clues to the BZ plan from here were now very slim.
But this was the real purpose of our return to Nocturnia.
"Let's go to the greenhouse!" I looked at him, wanting to divert his attention. "When I came, I dreamt about the garden!"
"Then I'll take you there," he said.
He took my hand and walked out of the main building through the side door at the end of the corridor. "When our mothers were still alive, they always went out from here to the garden."
Moreover, I was too busy with my career after leaving home for college and joining the Murphy family.
During the exhausting days, I work
collapse like a corpse when I
returned home. How could I have the leisure for such elegance?
When my career started to show results, I gave birth to Ava. For me, Ava was the most beautiful flower.
So, a garden was definitely a dream for me, a magically enticing place.
