Chapter 1523
Mitchel and Rodney also frowned.
Rodney spoke up.
“So this wasn’t an accident!”
Holden's expression turned cold as he instructed Shawn, “Find out everywhere this car has been.
Devin added, “The car was barely used; it had been retrieved recently.
| checked it myself before Miss Edwards and the children went out.
The only tit was used was to take Miss Edwards out.
Holden didn’t hesitate.
“Then we need to search our house, every single inch.
Hearing this, Mitchel said, “In that case, let's check everyone who was at the farm here as well.

With all those folks at the banquet and the car parked outside for so long, if someone messed with it, they
probably did it during the banquet.
Rodney's face darkened.
“You're absolutely right.
Turning to his assistant, he said, “Gather everyone who was here yesterday-servants, cooks, security, and
cleaners.
| want to question them all myself.
With that, Rodney stormed off back to the estate, trailed by Mitchel and the Chadwick family members, all of
them visibly upset.
Holden, meanwhile, stayed by the lake, staring at the still water for what felt like forever.
Just as he turned to talk to Devin, he passed out.
Devin panicked and immediately yelled for a doctor.
Since they weren't far from the estate, they quickly got Holden back.
Soon enough, Sonia, Adrian, and the others heard what had happened.
They couldn't believe that Ariana could die in a car crash.
Sonia raced to the estate.
When she got there, she saw Melon on Catalina’s lap, holding back tears, his face red and puffy.
The moment he saw Sonia, Melon couldn’t hold back his tears anymore.
He burst into tears and called, “Godmother!”
Sonia felt her heart breaking, and she rushed over.
Melon jumped off Catalina’s lap and ran into Sonia's embrace.
He was afraid that his mother would not cback, his body trembling.
Sonia lifted Melon up and patted his back to comfort him.

Melon asked, “Godmother, why hasn’t my mother cback? Does she not wantanymore? Did | do
something wrong?”
“How could you think that? Your mom Loves you more than anything in the world.
She'd never leave you.
She'll cback, | promise,” Sonia said, hugging Melon tightly.
Sonia kept repeating the last sentence, almost like she was trying to convince herself, too.
Melon eventually stopped crying, but his eyes stayed red and puffy.
He rested his head on Sonia’s shoulder and wiped his face with his sleeve.
Judy stood nearby, heartbroken, unable to accept the reality.
She now found it even harder to bring up the topic of the birthmark to Rodney, knowing it would devastate him
further.
Catalina quietly dabbed her eyes with a tissue.
She couldn't believe how fast everything had changed.
They had just been talking about their future plans, but then, the car crash had happened.
