Chapter 665
But Larissa was insistent. Yvette was her biological mother, after all. Even if she still hated Yvette, she could not allow her to just
keep lying down here in the morgue with no one to take care of her funeral.
“We’re here now.” Larissa walked fast. “Let’s finish this as soon as we can and leave.” Her teeth were chattering from the cold.
When she spoke, one could hear the sounds of her teeth challering.
Lewis sighed to himself on the inside but followed after her quickly.
They had called the hospital to make an appointment, so there was someone waiting at the door to the morgue.
“Are you Yvette’s family? The young man in a doctor’s outfit did not look happy. No one knew if it was because he had been
waiting for a long time or if it was because working in a place like this was sure to affect his mood. His voice was also clearly
annoyed.
“Yes!” Larissa replied very politely. She even smiled apologetically and said. “Sorry to keep you waiting.”
“Oh, I wasn’t kept waiting.” The young man led Larissa and Lewis into the morgue and drew out one of the freezer drawers. He
glared at Larissa with dissatisfaction as he mocked her. “She’s the one who was kept waiting a little longer than expected.”
It had been almost more than half a month since Yvette’s death.
Larissa’s smile became stiff. But she only laughed it off because it was not convenient for her to explain the reasons for such a
delay.
Yvette’s body was covered by a while cloth in the morgue. The young man revealed her face, which was pale, Due to the fact
that Yvette’s life was sustained by nutrient drips for a very long time before dying, she had become very thin a long time ago.
Now she looked rather
scary.
Larissa took one look at her before turning away, Any grief she felt at Yvette’s passing vanished without a trace too at this time.
When the young man saw this, he snorted with disdain.
“Your name and ID number? Lewis stepped forward to ask coldly. His face was dark.

The young man froze for a moment before he figured out what Lewis wanted. So, he defiantly showed his name tag and said.
“Here. Go on then, go complain about me!”
Lewis memorized his name, and Larissa interrupted him before he could speak. “My apologies, my cousin here is a bit hasty.”
Larissa frantically gave Lewis looks to tell him not to cause trouble.
“May I know what procedures must be done?” she asked the young man, still polite as ever. As a matter of fact, she sounded
way more polite than before.
To take revenge, the young man deliberately made them nun all over the place to get all sorts of stupid documents.
Larissa’s leg was not mobile enough for this, so this matter was naturally left to Lewis. She only needed to wait for him in the
corridor of the first floor.
Cold breezes would blow through the corridor at times, and it was very, very cold. Having suffered under such winds for a while,
Larissa began to sneeze like crazy after leaving the hospital.
“Caught a cold?” Lewis was worried, turning back with her to get some cold medication from the doctor. Then, he forcibly sent
her back to the hotel regardless of her wishes.
“I’ve called room services for you. Someone will bring up your lunch later. Take your medicine after eating. This one twice a day,
a pill every time. This one, you will have to take three Lewis instructed her carefully.
“I will take care of Yvette’s things for you. I’ll take you to the cemetery tomorrow to see her one last time. After that, we’ll go back
to Aldovia. You’re not fully recovered yet, so Uncle Gary is very worried about you. He called several times a day to hurry us
back”
On the way back, Larissa’s nose was clogged. Now, her throat was also beginning to Mich. She dared not force herself anymore,
following Lewis instructions to take her medication after ealing. Once the medicine kicked in, she drowsily fell asleep.
She slept for a very long time this way. When she woke up, the sky was already all dark outside. She did not know when she had
kicked the blankets off the bed, and her thin cotton nightgown was soaked with sweat. Her skin, lorehead, and back were very,
very sweaty.
