Chapter 454: Missed Appointment

Time flew by, and the night deepened.

The house was filled with Kevin Cliff's restless figure, which eventually sat down in front of the piano to play a serenade. The originally warm and romantic house suddenly became desolate and melancholic, and, without realizing it, the serenade took on a sorrowful tune.

Bang!!

The piano music stopped abruptly, along with the chime of the midnight clock.

Kevin Cliff closed his eyes tightly, and, unable to restrain himself any longer, he took out his mobile phone and dialed the number he had so often wanted to call.

However, the response he received was the cold, mechanical voice, "Hello, the number you are trying to reach is switched off..."

He couldn't bring himself to believe it, hanging up and dialing again, and again, each repetition of the automated voice tearing at his heart.

In the end, he had to accept the truth.
