Married by Accident, Taming the Billionaire novel Chapter 459

Chapter 459 She Wanted to Deal Him a Fatal Blow

Jersey could endure the criticisms and taunts from others, but he absolutely did not want to be questioned by Cecelia.

As if he was taking some kind of blood oath, he tightened his fists and said, "How would I be afraid? How would I be reluctant to give up the title of Earl's son? Do you think I value it so much?"

"I know, if you valued it, you wouldn't have severed ties with Tobiani and come to the Cathail Republic to find me." Cecelia exhaled deeply. "Jersey, it's because I consider you a friend that I said so much. I believe you are a person of clear principles, completely different from Tobiani. So, I really don't want you to be deceived and manipulated!"

She said she trusted him.

Perhaps it was Cecelia's heartfelt words that deeply moved and shocked Jersey.

After a long silence, he finally nodded. "Alright! Give me some time! I will go verify it."

Finally convincing Jersey, Cecelia breathed a sigh of relief and nodded. "Well, take care of yourself now. You can do it after you are discharged."

When Cecelia was about to get up, Jersey grabbed her wrist and looked at her, hesitating to speak.

"What is wrong? Is there something else you want to tell me?" asked Cecelia.

"Cecelia, I want to apologize to you," uttered Jersey.

"Why?"

"I have kept something from you."

Jersey thought he should confess to Cecelia because he feared that she would distance herself from him again if she found out about it one day.

"What is it? "

"I ordered Jessica and Kara to put Esmee to death."

After Jersey confessed, the ward fell into deathly silence and a tense atmosphere grew. Jersey's heart leaped into his throat.

Confessing all this to Cecelia took an enormous amount of courage, and he felt extreme fear about it.

He was afraid that Cecelia wouldn't want to have anything to do with him again.

"I knew it. How could Jessica and Kara commit the act without having anything to do with you? Although the two sisters never gave you away, I knew you were behind it. Jersey, you're not inherently vicious. It's Tobiani who molded you into a psychologically twisted person, and the person you need to kill should be him. But your hands are already stained with blood. If you want to live with peace of mind, then you have to find a way to atone for your sins."

Cecelia's intention was to lead Jersey onto the right path and to bring him to her side. Only then would she have a chance to bring down Dark Moon and defeat Tobiani.

"Thank you, Cecelia. I will find out the truth."

Tears of gratitude streamed down Jersey's face, and he was deeply moved. The thing he feared most didn't happen, and Cecelia didn't abandon him but instead gave him an indescribable sense of encouragement and redemption, which made him feel a kind of warmth stronger than sunlight once again.

"Take care of yourself! I'll get the nurse over."

Cecelia nodded at him and left the ward. Not long after, a nurse came to hook Jersey up with his IV again.

Maggie also returned to the ward. Even though Jersey still disregarded her, he didn't drive her out, because Cecelia's earlier words worked.

Jersey could only accept that shocking truth after he personally verified it.

...

Cecelia left the hospital with Remington, and as they got into the car, she sighed heavily.

"It must have been difficult for you to convince that stubborn fellow, my dear."

Remington held her hand, encouraging her. In his eyes, Jersey was just a stubborn fellow who was not easy to deal with.
