Chapter 1108

Grief seemed to overwhelm Cedrick. The smell of blood welled up in his throat again, and he found it hard to breathe because of the thick smoke. After spitting out one mouthful of blood, he blacked out and fell onto the scorching ground.

Before losing consciousness, he seemed to see the crystal chandelier above his head shaking with a loud creak and falling towards him...

He spread out his arms and closed his eyes in despair.

At Shoal Villa.

Edwin made out with Joanne after waking up in the early morning. In a daze, he heard his phone ring.

He sat up from the bed with fluffy short hair and picked up his phone with one hand. Then he said in a sexy but lazy voice, "Wait for a moment please. w

He got out of bed softly, tucked Joanne in, and then went to the balcony to answer the phone.

He never saw this caller ID before, and he asked in a low voice, "Who is that speaking?"

'Are you Mr. Atherton? I'm a police officer from Omille City, and my badge number is xxxx. Is Miss Catelyn your cousin? An explosion occurred on the 16th floor of the hotel where she stayed. A total of 13 guests and staff, including Miss Catelyn, were killed in the accident..." The police officer's mechanical but sympathetic voice was particularly clear on the silent corridor.

Edwin once again looked at the phone number, and he pinched his thigh in disbelief.

'What did you just say? Who is dead?" he asked in a serious tone.

The police officer knew Edwin's identity, so he called to inform him. He swallowed hard and felt his heart leap up. 'Mr. Atherton, I am truly sorry for your loss. We will try our best to catch the culprit..."

Bang!

The mobile phone slipped from Edwin's hand and hit the ground, making a dull sound.

Edwin froze on the spot, and his blood seemed to stop flowing.

Joanne’s hurried footsteps sounded from behind. Suddenly, she seemed to hit something, and there came a dull thud. Edwin turned his head, only to see Joe slumping onto the ground with a pale face, and her lips trembled slightly.

Edwin's face changed, and he quickly walked over to pick her up.

"Is what the police officer said just now true?"

Edwin tried to calm her in a half-joking voice, "Your hearing is so good. It seems that the anti-eavesdropping function of my mobile phone is broken."

"Don't lie to me! I heard it all. There was an explosion in Cat's hotel, right?" Joanne's voice faltered. She clutched Edwin's wrist and burst into tears.' Take me to her at once! She must be fine...”

A few hours ago, Joanne heard Edwin say that Cedrick had found Catelyn and would soon take her back to the Atherton family.

Although Joanne understood that Catelyn must have a reason to leave, she was pregnant after all, and it would be best for her to stay in the Atherton family's villa and be taken care of by so many servants.

Joanne didn't expect that after just a few hours, she got the news that Catelyn would never come back!
