Chapter 1107
Chapter 1107
The word "died" was the most frightening word for Cedrick at the moment. He gave that woman a vicious stare and continued to stumble upstairs as quickly as he could. There were people all around, but he only felt the freezing chill.
In a blink of an eye, he reached the 16th floor.
Red flames mixed with dark black smoke filled the air, and his whole vision was blurry.
Cedrick took a towel and soaked it in water. Covering his mouth and nose with the towel, he rushed into the scene of the explosion without looking back!
Bang!
The chandelier fell on the floor, and the sound of sporadic explosions kept ringing through the whole suite.
Cedrick's eyes turned scarlet, as if he was about to shed tears of blood.
He almost growled, ’Catelyn, I'm coming. Don't hide."
’Come out and I'll get you out of here.”
'We're not going to the Atherton family’s house, and I won't force you to abort that child again. Come out..."
The scene of the horrible explosion was full of smoke and flames. Cedrick had always been a calm and sober man, but now he was like a wounded and furious beast, scurrying around like a headless fly.
He went to the bedroom first, then to the bathroom, and then to the balcony and kitchen...
But he couldn't find her anywhere!
He finally went to the living room.
The living room was obviously the place where the explosion occurred.
The floor was completely dark and the sofa was ablaze with fire.
What was most unacceptable to him was that there were some broken fabrics scattered around the sofa.
That was the new dress he had bought for Catelyn this morning!
Those pieces of cloth fell to the ground in bits and pieces, giving out a strong scent of blood. The color of the cloth had turned pale yellow under the fire, and the surrounding areas of the cloth were blackened, as if a living person had been torn apart by the explosion!
When this terrible thought flashed through his mind, Cedrick almost couldn't stand up. He stumbled and fell on his knees. His eyes were bloodshot and his heart seemed to have been torn into countless pieces.
'No, it can't be. It's not Catelyn. She can't die like this...' he thought.
It must be an illusion!
Cedrick stood up in despair and wanted to look elsewhere...
Suddenly he felt like he had stepped on something.
He slowly removed his feet and looked down. A diamond ring was shining on the dark floor.
He picked up this ring. It had been burned red with a distorted shape, but the diamond on it was still intact.
It was exactly the wedding ring he had given to Catelyn!
