Chapter 1060
Catelyn nodded, looking worriedly at the intensive care unit...
Last night, she was still reassuring Cedrick that everything would be fine. However, things just go differently than we
want all the time.
At this moment, the door of the intensive care unit was pushed open, and a nurse ran over. "Miss Coleman is dying.
Come in quick if you want to see her for the last time!"
Regardless of the infection of the germs around, everyone just hurried in. For many people, Janice's death was not the
most important thing.
Everyone was there because they knew Cedrick cared about her, and now was the perfect time for them to be at his side
to 'show their sympathy'.
Catelyn walked toward the hospital bed. Over there, Cedrick was sitting beside it, holding Janice's hand. His eyes were

for days!
Janice was lying on the bed with an oxygen mask covering her mouth and nose. A thin layer of water mist formed within
the transparent mask as she breathed out.
Because of the craniotomy, Janice's head was wrapped with thick white gauze. The hospital gown looked loose on
her body, which set off her skinny figure. She could not speak, but she was able to sense the movement of people
coming into the ward.
She grasped Cedrick's hand suddenly with a little strength, and a few tears slowly rolled down from the end of her
eyes...
"I'm here, Auntie. I'm here..." Cedrick leaned closer and whispered softly in her ear.
Janice's lips seemed to twitch twice, but no one could hear what she said.
The cold wind blew strongly outside of the window like the roar of a devil.
At ten o'clock in the morning, Janice Coleman passed away peacefully with Cedrick by her side.
Cedrick could not accept any of this. He knelt upright by the bed, putting his trembling hands on Janice's forehead,
tidying her slightly messy hair.
Janice had not been in good health, but no one had expected her departure to be like this. In fact, it had to happen
after the wedding of the century.
If there was no wedding, or if the wedding was not held on the island, or if certain people were not invited to the
wedding, perhaps she would still be alive...
Catelyn saw Cedrick's back was trembling in sadness. She went over with red eyes and knelt beside him. She
reached out her hand, wanting to hold Janice's hand...
Cedrick slapped her hand away all of a sudden. "Don't touch her!"
His voice was cold as an ice pick, piercing into her heart.
Catelyn gasped as she stared at Cedrick in astonishment. Before she could react, he stood up suddenly and

Everyone was stunned. Even Eason and Draco looked at each other in blank dismay.
"Ceddy, what are you doing?" asked Catelyn in horror, grabbing Cedrick's clothes.
He turned his head and gave her a cold look. Without any tenderness in his eyes, he said, "Let go."
Catelyn felt that she was being choked, and she quickly let go of her hand in a daze.
Cedrick hugged Janice tightly as he walked. He whispered softly to her unconscious body, "You said you've been taking
jabs and medicines your whole life. You will never have to do that again, I promise. Let's go home, Auntie...."
With that, he carried Janice's body and left the ward.
Tears started rolling down Catelyn's cheek. She gently closed her eyes and shivered in the cold as she watched Cedrick
disappear.
"Ma'am, let me get you a blanket," said Eason.
Catelyn grabbed his hand, with tears shining in her eyes, and said earnestly, "You are by Ceddy's side the entire time.
You must know some clues! Tell me, who did this?!"
