Chapter 175 Shocking Details

Jeremiah’s choice to save her when she was thirteen might’ve changed the course of his life.

If he hadn’t saved her, perhaps he wouldn’t have died in a foreign land before he even reached the age of thirty.

A powerful wave of guilt washed over Raylee. She yearned to apologize to Jeremiah, but it was too late.

Finished

Raylee cast a glance at the memorial portrait and let out a deep sigh. Jeremiah, why did you keep so many secrets from me? Why didn’t you tell me anything?

“Not only did you cause the death of Jeremiah, but you also caused my mother’s death. You’re the reason I became an orphan, and I swear I will never forgive you in this lifetime!” Layla glared at Raylee, her anger surging uncontrollably There was one misdeed after another, and it seemed like a never–ending cycle.

Kaylee was struck dumb. “You claim that Jeremiah saved me back then, I accept that. However, what does your mother’s death have to do with me? I’ve never even seen her face.”

He didn’t have time to share the specific news before the

Could that netes be related to his mother’s death? If that’s indeed the case, then everything adds up… Raylee’s expression turned serious as she hurriedly asked, “Ms. Layla, what exactly does your mother’s death have to do with me? Could you elaborate? I’m not trying to shirk my responsibilities. I just don’t understand why you hold such a grudge against me. I want to know the reason before I die,”

Layla huffed before saying, “I was about to ask you the same thing!”

With an innocent look on her face, Kaylee gazed at her. “I genuinely have no idea, and I can swear on it. Just like that incident overseas years ago when Jeremiah saved ine, if you hadn’t brought it up now, I wouldn’t have had a clue.”

Layla’s face turned ashen. She gritted her teeth and said, “It seems neither of us knows. One evening, Jeremiah got utterly drunk and madvertently let slip that there was something suspicious about my mother’s death, and it was somehow related to you. As for the specific details, you’ll only learn them after you join Jeremiah in the afterlife, He’ll tell you then.”

Once again, Rayler was left speechless. If neither of us knows, perhaps only Mr. Victor has the information.

At the same time, she also wanted to know what news Alaric, her adoptive father in name, had revealed to Jeremiah.

Rayler’s emotions remained unsettled for a long time as she gazed at Jeremiah’s memorial portrait.

“You were Jeremiah’s first crush, yet you’re tied to my mother’s death. His love for you was complex, and he couldn’t bring himself to harm you. You, on the other hand, have caused bu death. We don’t even have his complete remains to lay him to

“Jeremiah, just how wicked is the woman you’re in love with? Calling her a venomous vixen wouldn’t even be an exaggeration!” Layla uttered before abruptly bursting into tears again.
