I Never Regretted Leaving You by Lana Mora

Chapter 208

Nathan had been desperately searching for Mrs. Hill for several days, exhausted but without any success.

Victoria couldn’t help but complain, “Mrs. Hill is not a three-year-old child, she can definitely take care of herself.

Even

e care of herself. Even if we dig three feet

underground, we won't be able to find her if she is intentionally hiding.”

Nathan was financially weak, his network collapsed, and he was unable to sustain his enthusiasm due to his lack

of resources. Eventually, he had no choice but to give up.

However, one week later.

The police station's phone rang.

“Is it Nathan?” the voice on the other end sounded authoritative.

Nathan's voice was filled with irritated annoyance as he said, “It’s me. Who are you?”

“I was a staff member at the @@ Police Station. Please cto Eastern Bridge of the Moat as soon as possible.”

Nathan said, “Sorry, | was busy now. If it's not something urgent, please don’t disturb me.”

“Is claiming the body considered important?” The other person. was quite angry.

Nathan's heart sank. “What did you say? Claiming a body? Whose body?” His calm demeanor finally cracked

wide open.

“Cand then we'll talk,” the other person said impatiently before hanging up the phone.

Nathan stumbled and ran downstairs.

Victoria caught up and said, “Nathan, I'll accompany you.”

Nathan had just gotten into the car when Victoria promptly sat in the passenger seat. She looked at him

anxiously and said, “Nathan, | am worried about you.

Nathan didn’t know whether he was comforting himself or comforting Victoria, “It's okay, maybe the police made

a mistake.”

Victoria nodded, “Hmm. It must be. My mother-in-law has always been strong and optimistic. When she

encounters something, she must be thinking about crushing the other party and never letting herself suffer. How

could such a powerful. person possibly take this path?”

Victoria spoke roughly but reasonably.

Nathan was very pleased.

He drove the car smoothly to the Eastern Bridge of the Moat. As soon as he got out of the car, he noticed a

crowd gathered there, and the police tape had been stretched out.

Nathan heard the crowd around him chatting, “A female corpse, soaked until her body swelled. She was in her

fifties, and it is said that she used to be a noblewoman from a wealthy family. What a pity.””

Nathan's body trembled suddenly and he ran inside with a pale

face.

“Officer,” he walked up to the police officer.

But | never had the courage to look at the dead bodies on the ground.

The police officer angrily scolded him with a cold face, “You finally came.”

“Look, this is the mother who has been missing for several days, isn’t she?”

one

Nathan summoned all his courage and finally mustered the strength to glance down at the corpse. However,

after just look, he couldn’t bring himself to look away anymore. He felt his whole body trembling, and then he

knelt down in front of the lifeless body.

“Mom!” He couldn't cry, but his face contorted in an especially ugly way.

“How could it be you? Mom, why don’t you want your son anymore?” Nathan cried, trembling all over.

The police sighed, “Your mother has been soaking in the water for a few days, so it seems she has been missing

for several days. As her son, didn’t you notice that your mother was gone?”

Nathan stared expressionlessly at Victoria, who was terrified and pale. It was she who had prevented Nathan

from searching for Mrs. Hill.

“Officer, we have searched for her. We just didn’t find her. It was my negligence, | always thought that my

mother-in-law was

strong and optimistic, she wouldn't do anything foolish. | thought she was just hiding. Officer, please make sure

to investigate the truth, my mother-in-law would never seek death on her own.” Victoria sobbed.

The police officer said, “Your mother had no visible injuries. The forensic examination determined that she died

from drowning due to water inhalation. It has been confirmed as a suicide.”

Victoria trembled.

Nathan's gaze at her was colder than ever before.

At this time, Alaric also arrived.

Obviously, the police also informed the deceased's ex-husband.

He rushed to the scene and saw Mrs. Hill's body, then he unceremoniously slapped Nathan across the face.

“You wretched creature, why wasn't it you who died?”

He slapped Nathan and, still not satisfied, kicked him hard.

Nathan remained motionless.

The police officer dragged the excited Alaric.

Victoria held Nathan in her arms and retorted to Alaric, “What reason do you have to blNathan? It was

clearly you, your abandoned your wife and child, which led to your mother-in-law feeling hopeless and seeking

death.”

Alaric grimaced and pointed his finger at Nathan's nose, cursing angrily, “Your mother was driven to death by

you, you ungrateful child. She didn’t want you to marry this woman, but you insisted.

Your mother lived her whole life for you, she said you were her greatest achievement. And in the end, you did all

these absurd things for a woman. Your mother was so desperate with you that she chose to commit suicide. She

couldn't see any hope in life.”

Nathan's lips moved.

Alaric’s accusation tore at his heart.

The police officer persuaded Alaric, “Sir, please calm down.”

Alaric was so angry that he clutched his chest, glaring at Nathan as if he were looking at a villain. “When |

divorced your mother, | said you were a hopeless case, but she insisted that you would eventually stand up on

end? She gave up all her savings for you. And you ended up taking her life? Nathan, you murderer.”

The people around, upon hearing the words, scornfully and disdainfully stared at Nathan.

Speople threw stones at him. “It’s better to raise a barbecue pancake than to raise a son like this.”

Victoria held Nathan tightly, sobbing uncontrollably. “Please don’t blhim, | beg you. He did it for me, he did

it only for me.”

“I was sick and not liked by my in-laws. But | also longed to be loved by someone. Nathan just fell in love with a

woman who was not in good health, he did nothing wrong.”

Alaric angrily exclaimed, “It was not wrong for him to love

the end, he faced retaliation... you all deserve what you have today. It's because your hearts were not

righteous...”

Nathan's actions, as soon as they cout of his father’s mouth, immediately caused public outrage.

“Oh my, no wonder even his biological father didn’t want him. He is simply a heartless and wicked beast.”

Victoria held Nathan tightly and cried out, “Don’t speak about him like this, he was a good person.”

“What kind of person can someone be who drove their own mother to death?”

Nathan was like a rat crossing the street, being spat on by people.

He, however, had no reaction. He just knelt in front of Mrs. Hill. Just like a statue, motionless.

Finally, the police officer stepped forward and said, “Both of you are relatives of the deceased. Who is

responsible for the matters concerning the deceased's affairs?”

Alaric said, “I divorced her, but it was only due to irreconcilable differences in our child's education. I still have

feelings for her. | am willing to take care of her affairs after her passing.”

Nathan's eyes shot a chill. “My mother doesn’t care for your hypocritical flattery. If it weren't for you divorcing

her, how could she have becmentally unstable and broken down? Her death. You are also implicated. Even if

she’s dead, she doesn’t
