Chapter 243

Chapter 243 Forgive No One

“Ced! Ced, please believe me! Let me explain!” Christina cried in despair.

The emotional scene hadn’t even begun, and Cedric efficiently put an end to it.

Rebecca and Elizabeth were frantic as they saw Cedric about to leave.

“Mom, Grandma!”

Christina was genuinely alarmed as she was forcibly taken away. The situation made her realize that

this

time, it wasn’t just about cooperating with an investigation.

Cedric had done this!

He had brought the police today, indicating he hadn’t been idle these past few days.

Whatever he knew about her wasn’t as simple as just finding out about the card!

Thinking of the possibilities, despair overwhelmed Christina’s face.

Rebecca and Elizabeth were pale as they watched the scene unfold, but Wanda had the most intensel

reaction.

“Ms. Christina! Miss!”

I

“Don’t take her away, It was me! I was the one who did it! I did everything!” Wanda tried to grab

Christina,

but someone pulled her away.

She fell heavily on the cold floor, full of despair.

Christina cried out, “I’m innocent! It wasn’t me! Ced, listen to my explanation! Mom! Grandma! Save

me!”

She struggled incessantly, but it was futile against the police, who forcefully took her into the car.

Her hands touched the cold iron bars, and Christina felt utter hopelessness.

Wanda rushed out, slipping in the rain. “Ms. Christina! Miss!”

Rebecca and Elizabeth came out and saw the despairing scene they had never imagined would

happen

with Christina.

No, Christina couldn’t leave this place!

+15 BONUS

She didn’t want to leave this warm home. She couldn’t bear never coming back.

She was afraid. She was truly afraid!

“Mom! Grandma!”

Holding onto the iron bars tightly, she desperately tried to get out of the cold police car.

It was over.

The thought flashed in Christina’s mind at this moment.

Cedric had never been this ruthless 10 her before.

When he saw her crying, there would be reluctance in his eyes.

But today…..

He had been so heartless.

And she knew what kind of person Cedric was, having grown up with him. Once he turned ruthless, no

one

could resist.

Finally, it happened.

She never thought that one day, all the cruelty Cedric had shown to Natalie would be inflicted on her.

She never thought Natalie would die; she just wanted to drive her away.

And she never expected that after Natalie’s death, Cedric would be so ruthless to her.

Fear and despair enveloped Christina completely, and her whole world turned dark.

On his e end, Cedric had left the Johnson Manor, utterly indifferent to Christina’s miserable fate.

All of this… she deserved it.

Yes, she deserved it!

The rain in Verde City was always cold.

Cedric stood in the chilly rain, looking at the perfectly intact Scarlet Villa.

His eyes flickered with overwhelming sorrow.

“Mr. Johnson, let’s go inside.”

Lucas was freezing, and Cedric was dressed even more lightly than him. Standing in the rain like this

would make him sick.

Cedric seemed not to hear Lucas’s words. He simply stood quietly at the door, staring at everything.

familiar.

Everything here was so intact.

Where was the slightest trace of the destruction from his previous life?

Two lives….

The trajectory of fate and time had changed, but….

Natalie’s ending hadn’t changed.

How heartbreaking was that?

*Lucas,”

“Yes, sir.”

“Why was she cremated?”

Could it be that she endured the same pain as in their previous life?

In their previous life, the fire here was completely extinguished, and Natalie was rescued.

Although she survived, she had severe burns all over her body.

She never woke up.

She was pregnant at that time…!

Thinking about all those things, Cedric’s throat tightened. The pain in his heart suffocated him!

Lucas sensed his heavy breathing and took a deep breath before saying, “Sir, maybe… It’s better not

to

know.”

Having been with Cedric for so long, Lucas couldn’t bear to see him like this. The more Cedric knew

about Natalle’s final moments, the more painful it would be.

“Call Stefan over!” Cedric sald sternly.

When Lucas heard that Cedric wanted to see Stefan, he knew… Cedric would want

to know every detail

about Natalie.

Lucas also woke up to reality.

Now that he knew the whole truth, Cedric wouldn’t let it go easily if he wasn’t told every detail.

“Sir!”

“Speak!”

His one word was full of harshness

Lucas tensed up. He lowered his head and said, “Ms. Walker was indeed alive when she was rescued!”

Cedric’s eyes turned stormy.

So, she had been alive then?

Lucas continued without waiting for him to speak, “But she didn’t last an hour. Mr. Jarvis didn’t even

see

her alive for the last time.

Stephen had come in the end, but he didn’t manage to see Natalie one last time before she died.

Just who was being punished in this situation?

Lucas looked at Cedric. With just one glance, he could see the slight trembling of the man’s shoulders.

Sen Me Writer was taken into

“And, custody, they said she…” Lucas paused here, clearly reluctant to

continue

Even when he learned about those details back then, he was shocked and could imagine how

despaired

Cedric would be upon learning everything.

“She what?” Cedric asked in a hoarse voice.

She had been alive and had endured the same scorching pain as she did in their previous life.

She used to be a girl who cried like a child when scalded

steam.

Cedric couldn’t bear to think further.

His heart throbbed painfully, and tears welled up in his eyes.

Thinking of the pain Natalie had endured for two lifetimes, Cedric wanted to kill himself so badly!!

Lucas lowered his head and finally said, ‘Ms. Walker was already pregnant when she went in, so… she

died with the child!”

Boom!

Cedric felt like his world was collapsing!

Nat… Nat!

His Nat…

And their child. 1

Cedric fell to the ground heavily. He curled up on the damp ground, his chest heaving painfully.

Lucas quickly stepped forward. “Sir…!”

“Leave!” Cedric roared,

His world was filled w

His world was filled with only despair at this moment.

She had left again.

She had left in such pain, taking their child with her.

How desperate she must have been at that time?

She loved children so much. She had wanted to have a child with him so much!

When the fire spread to her, how could she bear the pain of being unable to protect even the child?

Natalie was present so vividly in his heart when he thought about all of these things.

He knew exactly what she had felt inside.

Her trust in him had fallen entirely into the abyss of despair.
