Chapter 524
Jerleaned down to pickup, saying urgently," Xander, get the car. Quick."
Xander nodded before dashing out of the cemetery with a pale face.
"Why did you bring her here?" Jerglared at Heidi." Were you trying to kill her?"
Heidi sighed. "You can't lie to her forever."
Jergritted his teeth. "I would've lied to her forever if | could.”
| passed out before the car arrived at the hospital. | figured it was pretty good to just keep sleeping like this
because then, | would not feel any more pain, experience any more deaths, nor lose anyone important to me.
Nevertheless, | still woke up to face reality.
The white of the hospital ceiling was too dazzling to look at. Everywhere aroundwas dazzling white. | turned
my head to look at Jerstanding next to my bed. "How did she die?"
Jerdid not expect that | would ask such a difficult question as soon as | woke up. He immediately looked as

"Stop asking, Wandy.” Xander cover to tuck the blanket for me. "What you need now is rest."
"I want to know." | insisted.
Xander lowered his head and fell silent. Jerpushed him. "Go and buy something to eat."
When Xander left, he sat on the chair and held his head in both hands while muttering, "On the day of your
accident, Cecilia was brought to Whaldorf City by someone and left there. It was too hot that
day, so she fainted on the streets from heatstroke. Xander brought her back and | gave you a call but someone
kidnapped you when you left the house.”
I knew all this.
Jertook a deep breath. "Cecilia didn't know about these things at first but someone told her that you left the
house to find her, which gave Petra’s men the chance to take you away. They also told her in detail about the
things that happened to you after you were taken away. Cecilia blamed herself, and her mood becreally
unstable. Coupled with the fact that she wasn't able to see you, she got into an accident."
| clenched my fists. "And then what?"
"On the way to the hospital, she had a feeling that she might not be able to make it, so she toldto let you
raise her child if anything happened to her. She also wantedto keep this from you and only tell you after the
child is able to walk and talk."
| could not help but cry again. As soon as | imagined Cecilia's face when she said her last words to Jeri n the
ambulance, | felt grief and terror overwhelming me.
When | had cried enough, | took the tissue paper that Jerhandedand wiped my face. | said in a hoarse
voice, "Do you know who told her?"
Apart from Matthew, the ones who knew the details of what had happened back then were Petra, Grayson, and
Cindy. Matthew would never do such a thing, so it must be one of the three.
Besides, only the three of them were capable of resorting to underhanded tricks like that.
"Mason's assistant," Jercoldly said.
After a pause, he clenched his right fist and continued, "That woman's nis Nadia Sherman."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNadia Sherman?
| tried jogging my memory and recalled the woman who sat next to Mason at the clubhouse.
Jergritted his teeth. "She approached Cecilia, and Cecilia started acting weird after their conversation. |
asked her what they talked about and all she could tellwas sgeneral information.
"Oh by the way." He suddenly remembered something. "Cecilia also toldnot to tell Mason about the child.
It's best if he never finds out."
Nadia was Mason's assistant and Benny's cousin. The faces of many people emerged in my head. What role did
Mason play among these people?
Mason...
Seeing that | was in a daze, Jerasked worriedly, "D o you still feel unwell, Wandy?”
| cback to my senses and shook my head. "I'll investigate this."
