"Impossible!" The bloody scalpel fell on the ground with a clear sound, and Stephen moved steps backward in shock.
Adolph was also stunned. "Barbara, you..." He knew Barbara wanted to rescue him, but there was no need to make up such a stupid lie. Let alone Stephen; even himself didn't believe it.
They didn't find out Stephen's mother was raising a kid alone until she had worked as a maid in their family for a long time.
Barbara walked to Adolph but didn't lift him up. Instead, she knelt before the tombstone with sincerity and respect on her face.
"Thank you, thank you so much for what you've done." Barbara's eyes were full of tears again. She gently rubbed the black and white photo on the tombstone. "Thank you for you've raised Stephen up so well. He's a very good child. And we owe a lot when you sacrifice your life for my sister, Agnes,"
"Don't touch my mother!" Stephen strode over, but Ethan stopped him.
