A Cue for Love novel Chapter 1093

Chapter 1093 Fortune Or Ill Fate

Natalie was shocked. She thought that the jade key was related to the royal family’s secret, but as it turned out, the jade key was related to the treasures of the royal mausoleum instead. “Mr. Varre, why are you sure that this is the key?”

“I was obsessed with gem carving back then. That man had used my wife and Annie’s life as bait to make me loyal to him. He wanted to create this key according to the records in the old books,” Varre said agitatedly, his eyes bloodshot.

“Somehow, that man managed to find countless books with the key’s descriptions, and I tried many to recreate it with multiple jade stones, but none could be used to unlock the royal mausoleum’s secret room.” “Anna and her mother?”

“Annie hates me because I’m the reason her mother died…” Varre uttered in a pained voice. “I could carve all kinds of sculptures beautifully, but I could never carve out the mysterious jade key. The man thought I wasn’t serious about the job, so he fed Wilna a poison he had developed. It made her body puff up like a ball, and in the end, she exploded. Annie had to witness her mother’s death.”

“What?” Natalie’s jaw dropped at the revelation.

No wonder Varre came to a remote monastery that doesn’t even show up on the GPS to be a nameless monk despite having such a luxurious life in the past. No wonder those cruel words could come out of the gentle Anna’s mouth even though it’s obvious that Varre is dying. So this tragedy is related to this jade key…

“Mr. Varre, have you ever… explained this to Anna?” Natalie could not help but ask. “What good would the explanation be to Annie? It’ll only make me feel better, not her.” Varre bitterly shook his head. “Annie loves her mother. If she finds out that the man had a hand in her mother’s death, she will certainly seek revenge. That man is a powerful figure. Only by becoming a hermit did I finally have these twenty years of peace. Annie will only risk her life if she seeks revenge. I don’t want to lose my daughter after losing the woman I love. I’d rather have Annie blame this on me and think of me as the evilest person in the world so that she can live a simple life. As her parent, I don’t wish for her to achieve great things. I just hope that she’ll be safe and sound in her life. That’s all…”

Natalie was stunned to her core to hear their history.
