Chapter 94: Moving Out (1)
Despite all the responsibilities piling up, especially the ongoing investigation with Will, Gray still took a half-day from work. He couldn’t do much since it was already planned beforehand.
Gray called the real estate office yesterday to confirm with the moving service. Since he and Lily didn’t own much, there wasn’t much to coordinate, except for asking a few helpers to help them move and organize things.
There were just a few pieces of furniture that they bought themselves. A couple of shelves. Their clothes. Some kitchenware. And a few sealed boxes that held all the memories of their dead parents.
It was stuff neither of them ever opened, but never had the heart to throw away either.
Thankfully, aside from Marcus working on the investigation, nothing else in the office was urgent today.
They were still waiting on statements anyway.
It gave Gray the perfect window to slip out.
He didn’t even go out for a proper lunch. He just grabbed a sandwich on the cafeteria and ate it in the back seat while Daniel drove him home.
Their apartment was already clean. They’d finished everything the day before. They vacuumed the floor, wiped the windows, and taped up all the boxes they will be carrying out neatly.
Lily even labeled everything, just so Gray wouldn’t mess it up.
When Gray arrived, the living room looked a little hollow now. The furniture was still there, but their personal things were mostly gone. It was strange seeing it that way, especially since they lived in the place for years.
