Chapter 1072
Chapter 1072
Cedrick really intended to take Ezekiel’s life today!
Catelyn had wanted to settle this matter in a peaceful way, so she didn't tell her grandmother about it or turn to Edwin for help. She humbly begged Cedrick to let Ezekiel go, but it seemed there was no way Cedrick would let Ezekiel go!
Catelyn bit her lower lip, stopped crying, and stared at Cedrick with stubborn eyes, "Are you sure you won't give him a chance?"
Cedrick sneered, "Has he ever given Aunt Janice a chance?"
Cedrick then instructed the bodyguards to drag Ezekiel over to Janice's coffin.
Ezekiel slumped to the floor, gasping for breath.
Cedrick looked down at Ezekiel, took out a pistol, and tossed it in front of Ezekiel. He hissed, "Don't you feel guilty? Kill yourself! After you're dead, I will let go of your family."
Ezekiel timidly turned to the black pistol.
'Even though it was Janice's funeral and there were a lot of guests, Cedrick showed no fear...'
'He really wanted me dead...1 Ezekiel contemplated.
"You don't want to?" As Ezekiel was hesitating, Cedrick curled his lips, "Or you have no intention of redeeming yourself?"
Under Cedrick and the bodyguards' gaze, Ezekiel reached for the pistol, his body shaking...
'What am I going to do? Am I really going to die here?'
"Actually, I'd rather send you to jail than kill you. And I can arrange some company for you, so you won't be lonely. It should be fun. But I guess Aunt Janice can't wait to see you."
Cedrick's words were cruel, but his tone was extremely indifferent.
Ezekiel sweated in fear, his body shaking...
'Cedrick is so cold-blooded!'
'Even though Catelyn begged him so, he wasn't even touched...'
Ezekiel wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked in a trembling voice, ’ What if... If I die, will you take care of Catelyn?"
Cedrick got tired of his show. He interrupted Ezekiel, "Don't pretend to be a good father. You're not!"
"Catelyn, it looks like I can't take care of you anymore." Ezekiel said resignedly to Catelyn as he shed tears, "Don't blame Cedrick! If you hadn't saved me that day, I would have died already. God has given me these extra days. I'm happy to see you found a man who can look after you. I haven't seen your mom for over twenty years. Sunny, wait for me, I'm coming..."
