Chapter 895 Brenda Was Gone
Upon hearing that, Sadie was stunned. She had expected that they would eventually ask this question, and she had mentally prepared herself for it, but hearing it firsthand still made her feel uneasy. She didn't know how to face it and how to respond.
"Yeah. Mommy, where's Brenda?" Mia tugged at Sadie's sleeve and asked softly, "I wanted to ask when I saw you yesterday, but then I got sick and didn't have a chance."
"I miss Brenda," Nathan couldn't help but say when mentioned Brenda, "I miss her pizzas, roasted chicken, and pumpkin pie."
"Yes, I miss them too." Mia's mouth watered at the thought. "It's been so long since I had Brenda's cooking. I've even lost weight."
"I watered the cherry trees Brenda planted in the yard every day, and now, they're taller than me." Noah was a bit excited.
"I take a credit for it, too. I often fertilized the cherry trees." Nathan quickly raised his hand to express.
"Mommy, when will Brenda come back?" Mia tilted her head and said naively, "I don't drink milk anymore, and I can bathe myself. I'm easy to be taken care of. Brenda doesn't have to work as hard as before."
Upon hearing these, Sadie couldn't help but tear up. She had forgotten many things, but hearing them describe those beautiful memories, she felt warm. Sadly, those happiness could never return because Brenda was gone. "Mommy, what's wrong?" Mia held Sadie's face with her tender hands and asked softly. "You're crying!"
"Mommy, is Brenda sick?" Nathan gently pulled Sadie's sleeve and comforted her, "It's okay. Doctor Rey is very skilled and will definitely cure her."
Dahlia also felt a bit sad when she heard this. In fact, she had known for a long time that something had happened to Brenda.
She just didn't dare to tell Nathan and the others.
"Mommy, what happened exactly?" Noah frowned at Sadie, feeling uneasy. "Brenda..."
Sadie took a deep breath, summoned the courage, and said, "Brenda is gone."
Nathan and the others were stunned for a moment. They didn't know what it meant for Brenda to be gone.
"What do you mean by 'gone'?" Noah's look changed.
"Brenda..." Sadie said softly, "She passed away two years ago."
Nathan and the others were all shocked, and it took them a while to come back to their senses.
Mia burst into tears, her fair face instantly turning red.
"How could this happen!" Nathan clenched his fists, tears rolling down uncontrollably. He asked emotionally, "How did Brenda die? Was it an illness or an accident?"
"An accident." Sadie sighed sadly. "It was my fault. I didn't protect Brenda well."
"Mommy, did someone kill Brenda?" Noah remembered when those bad guys were chasing them yesterday, he vaguely heard Mommy questioning them, asking who sent people to assassinate her in Country H. Could Brenda's death be related to that incident?
"You're still young, and it's hard to explain some things to you." Sadie hugged them. "Brenda will bless you to grow up healthy in heaven, so you must be good and take care of yourselves." Nathan and the others were still immersed in the grief of Brenda's passing, crying heartbreakingly.
Sadie intended to stay with them a little longer, but at that moment, a knock came from outside, and a bodyguard reported, "Ms. James, Mr. Tristan James wants to see you in the study." "I'll be right there," Sadie responded, then turned to Dahlia and the two female bodyguards, "Watch over them. I'll be back soon."
