Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 524

Jerome leaned down to pick me up, saying urgently," Xander, get the car. Quick."

Xander nodded before dashing out of the cemetery with a pale face.

"Why did you bring her here?" Jerome glared at Heidi." Were you trying to kill her?"

Heidi sighed. "You can't lie to her forever."

Jerome gritted his teeth. "I would've lied to her forever if I could.”

I passed out before the car arrived at the hospital. I figured it was pretty good to just keep sleeping like this because then, I would not feel any more pain, experience any more deaths, nor lose anyone important to me.

Nevertheless, I still woke up to face reality.

The white of the hospital ceiling was too dazzling to look at. Everywhere around me was dazzling white. I turned my head to look at Jerome standing next to my bed. "How did she die?"

Jerome did not expect that I would ask such a difficult question as soon as I woke up. He immediately looked as though he was put in a trance.

"Stop asking, Wandy.” Xander came over to tuck the blanket for me. "What you need now is rest."

"I want to know." I insisted.

Xander lowered his head and fell silent. Jerome pushed him. "Go and buy something to eat."

When Xander left, he sat on the chair and held his head in both hands while muttering, "On the day of your accident, Cecilia was brought to Whaldorf City by someone and left there. It was too hot that day, so she fainted on the streets from heatstroke. Xander brought her back and I gave you a call but someone kidnapped you when you left the house.”

I knew all this.

Jerome took a deep breath. "Cecilia didn't know about these things at first but someone told her that you left the house to find her, which gave Petra’s men the chance to take you away. They also told her in detail about the things that happened to you after you were taken away. Cecilia blamed herself, and her mood became really unstable. Coupled with the fact that she wasn't able to see you, she got into an accident."

I clenched my fists. "And then what?"
