Chapter 1077
Chapter 1077
'There is no bullet in the last two magazines.’
Suddenly, Eason thought of Edwin.
'Edwin must have secretly emptied the magazines of the pistol. He has been playing in casinos and nightspots, so he is adept at cheating. It's no wonder that he has deceived all of US.'
All of them assumed that there must be a bullet in the six magazines.
But they neglected the fact that Edwin wouldn't put Catelyn at risk...
In other words, they worked together to deceive Cedrick.
"rm sorry..."
"Forgive me, Ceddy..."
"My baby. Protect my baby..."
On the way to the hospital, Catelyn was unconscious, but she kept murmuring these words over and over again.
Joanne talked with her in the ambulance to cheer her up, crying sadly.
After Catelyn was rushed to the emergency room, Edwin and Joanne stayed outside anxiously.
Ezekiel also came to the hospital, though he was very weak. Joanne wanted a doctor to examine him. After all, Catelyn saved him, having risked her life.
Ezekiel was hunched, wiping away his tears. "It's all my fault.”
"Since you know it's your fault, go back to the Clark family and be a coward. Never appear in front of Ceddy again!" Edwin didn't accept Ezekiel's apology, but reprimanded him coldly. Edwin only cared about Catelyn, and Ezekiel was a stranger in his eyes.
Edwin thought his noble and elegant aunt, Summer, should have married an indomitable hero, instead of a coward like Ezekiel, who asked his daughter to risk her life to save him after killing a person...
Maybe he was not a coward, but a snake which hid its poison...
Ezekiel was deeply shocked by these words. He seemed to have aged in a flash and turned around to leave silently.
Joanne saw him staggering, as if he could be blown down by a gust of wind. She asked worriedly, "Did you speak too harshly? He is your uncle anyway. If he leaves, will Mr. Mason dispatch someone to arrest him again? IV
Edwin gave Joanne a glare. "Ceddy won't do anything to him in the future."
"Why?"
"Didn't you know what Catelyn was betting? Ceddy voluntarily gave up that bet, and he lost. In other words, Catelyn not only used the most ruthless method to save Ezekiel, but also hurt Ceddy deeply."
Then Joanne understood what Edwin meant.
