Chapter 261
By the time Frederick rushed to the hospital, Laveme’s body was already chilling in the morgue.
Laveme was now lying there, her eyes closed, her body cold and stiff
Marguente was kneeling on the floor, staring at her grandmother’s face over and over again, muttering, “Granny, granny, look at me…”
Tears rained down on Laveme’s face, slipping from her cheeks without pause.
“Granny, it’s me, Marguente Look at me. I’m wearing the pretty dress you bought for me. Just open your eyes for a moment, just a moment…”
Frederick and Chuck were standing at the door, their hearts aching
They ached for Marguente, but even more for Laverne
Laverne wasn’t Frederick’s biological grandmother, but she had saved him and his mother’s lives fifteen years ago, along with Yuna
He still remembered the warm bowl of soup she gave him.
Having lived in Sapphire Valley Estates for so long, he had long considered her his own grandmother.
He was deeply pained but he couldn’t break down at this moment.
The one who was hit the hardest was the woman before his eyes.
If he broke down, what would happen to Marguerite?
He suppressed his pain, turned to the morgue attendant, and asked, in an icy tone, “What was the cause of death?”
The attendant sighed regretfully, his drooping features showing pity
“Apparently, the old lady was in good health. But she was scheduled for a check–up today. The doctor gave her a laxative injection last night. But after taking the medicine, she couldn’t eat mango
I don’t know if she didn’t know or if her granddaughter was irresponsible, but the old lady ate a mango and suffered a sudden asphyxiation! I heard that when she died, she kept her eyes open, refusing to close them!”
Upon hearing this, Frederick’s piercing gaze immediately landed on the attendant
The attendant had never seen such an intimidating gaze before. He shuddered, not knowing what he had said wrong, and shut his mouth in fear
How could Marguerite possibly be irresponsible?
From what he knew of the woman, she was more careful than anyone else when it came to matters involving Laverne
How could it be her fault?
There was a death certificate, too unfamiliar and too cold Marguerite’s eyes stung as she looked at it. She held the pen in her hand but couldn’t bring herself to sign
her name.
