Chapter 141

The cold sea breeze grew chillier as Cedric stood motionless at the cliff's edge, his tall figure swaying in the wind."Mr. Carlson, let me take you to the hospital," Evander suggested, noticing Cedric's drenched clothes.Cedric had inhaled water earlier, and standing soaked could lead to illness."No," Cedric flatly refused."Cedric... please listen to Evander and go for a check-up," Vivienne urged, her voice filled with concern.Cedric’s gaze shifted from the sea to her, revealing bloodshot eyes full of ferocity."Evander, take her and Tristan away," he commanded."Yes, Mr. Carlson." Familiar with Cedric's temperament, Evander knew he was on the edge of fury. After all these years, he knew when Cedric was close to his breaking point.Seeing Cedric's terrifying demeanor for the first time, Vivienne held her tongue and left with Tristan and Evander.When the irritating voices left, Cedric turned back, his blood-red eyes fixated on the unfathomable depths of the sea.'Sophie,

"Speak up! Cedric, you bastard. Do you realize Sophie is still carrying your child?!"Jeanna's outcry pierced through Cedric's daze. He seized her wrist, his voice strained with disbelief. "Repeat what you just said!""What's the point? Sophie never had an abortion, and your child is still in her womb. She was supposed to leave today and find peace somewhere else, awaiting the child's birth. But you've ruined everything!"Cedric! Just die already!" Jeanna's eyes blazed with rage, her wrist nearly breaking under his grip. Despite his hold, she pushed against him, longing to thrust him into the sea to join Sophie in death."She deceived me? Lied to me?" Cedric's face contorted in shock and disbelief. He had assumed the worst, but now the truth seemed elusive."No, she didn't lie. What? Did you expect her to sit around while you send someone again to force an abortion on her?""I sent someone?" Cedric's focus sharpened on Jeanna. "What do you mean 'I sent someone to force an abortio

Cedric's eyes flickered. After standing on the cliff edge all night, his body suddenly swayed, and he plunged straight into the icy sea. 'Sophie, if we are to die, let's do it together!'"Cedric!""Mr. Carlson!"Everyone was shocked by his sudden fall.Fortunately, the rescue team was still present and quickly retrieved Cedric from the water."Cedric, wake up! Don't scare us!" Sean panicked, slapping Cedric's face hard.However, he remained unconscious, almost lifeless.-After hearing the news, the Carlson family arrived urgently at the hospital.Melissa paced anxiously in the corridor."What on earth happened? How did my Cedric end up in the emergency room?" Melissa's eyes were red with worry. Cedric was her life, and now the red light above the emergency room door unnerved her."Sean, what happened? Cedric said he'd bring Vivienne and Tristan home for dinner last night. We waited, but nobody showed up, and we couldn't reach anyone. Then this morning, we hear Cedric's in t

Melissa was visibly relieved by the prognosis and nodded frantically. Her gaze then shifted into the room. "When can my son be discharged?""He will be moved to the ICU shortly. If his condition doesn't worsen over the next three days, we can transfer him to a regular ward for further observation," the doctor informed."Thank you so much, doctor!" Melissa expressed her gratitude while Matthew hugged his near-tearful wife, also extending his thanks."You're welcome. I need to see other patients now.""Thank God, our Cedric is safe," Melissa murmured in relief, looking skyward with her hands clasped in prayer.But Jeff retorted coldly, "He might as well be dead!""Dad, Cedric is your own grandson!" Melissa's face darkened when she heard him curse her son.'What kind of grandfather wishes death upon his grandson?' Melissa thought."I declare that Cedric will no longer be my grandson from today onward! He's also removed from his position as CEO of Carlson Group!" Jeff declared firm

After two sleepless nights, Melissa was relieved and sighed. "Thank God, Cedric. You scared me to death.""I want to be discharged," Cedric said.He turned his head, his cold eyes meeting Melissa's.'How could I stay in the hospital when she hasn't been found?' he thought."How can you think of being discharged in this condition?" Melissa was immediately worried about his insistence.Yet Cedric, coughing, reiterated, "I want to be discharged!"The doctor sensed the tension and intervened, "Mr. Carlson, Mrs. Carlson, he can be discharged under strict monitoring. We'll arrange for a medical team to visit your residence daily for follow-ups and checks so we can detect any issues early on.""Thank you, doctor. Don't worry about the expenses," Melissa wanted him to stay in the hospital, but reluctantly agreed to his wishes.Evander handled Cedric's discharge. Melissa attempted to assist him in getting to the car, but he refused. "I'll go with Evander.""Cedric... Where are you goin

Chapter 146

Alfred's voice sounded noticeably nervous as the news was making such a big splash. Cedric's reaction exceeded his expectations, not to mention Jeff's wrath and determination to get to the bottom of the matter. He would surely be implicated if they were to initiate a thorough investigation."Why are you panicking? Listen, if anyone investigates this matter, you only need to pin everything on Melissa. Do you understand?" Vivienne's voice sounded calm and composed."Ma'am? But this is your doing...""Come again? Whose doing is it?" Vivienne's expression dimmed, and her voice turned colder.Alfred was taken aback for a moment before whispering, "It's Madam Carlson's.""Good, just remember that. Don't worry. As soon as I become the official Mrs. Carlson, I'll treat you well," Vivienne said and hung up.After finishing the call, Vivienne emerged from the bathroom only to find Cedric in the living room, which flusteringly caused her to almost drop her phone."Cedric... When did you co

Unable to accept such remarks, Jeanna grabbed the leader by the collar, looking extremely agitated. "Don't give me that horsecrap. How can you claim it's zero? Miracles happen every day all over the world!" 'Soph is such a kind person, and she's pregnant. How could God be so cruel to her?'She was devastated deep down."Jeanna, calm down." Seeing her like this, Sean reached out and pulled her into his arms.Jeanna had been standing on the edge of the cliff daily for over ten days, forcing the rescue team to search for Sophie in the water. If she continued doing this, she might really lose her mind."Let go of me! You don't understand anything!" Jeanna wanted to break free from Sean's arms, but she had almost exhausted all her strength with that one grasp. She was so weak that she could only lean against him.During her most agonizing period, when she wanted to die the most, it was Sophie who had stood by her side. However, now that Sophie was in trouble, she could not do anythin

Sean's expression changed instantly upon hearing that.Seeing her exiting the ward with the paring knife, he had no time to think and could only blurt out, "Jeanna Archer, I'm right here!""Cedric?" Jeanna asked in a trance."Yes, it's me." Sean pursed his lips nervously and mimicked Cedric's tone.He was not a doctor and had no idea of Jeanna's condition's potential impact. But besides stabilizing her, he could not think of any other way for the moment."You scumbag! I'll kill you!" As Jeanna shouted, she thrust the knife toward him.Sean dodged the potentially fatal thrust aimed at his chest, but his arm got slashed in the process.Blood gushed out in an instant, staining a large patch of his skin and sleeve.Perhaps startled by the sudden sight of blood, Jeanna's empty gaze gradually regained focus, and her rationality swiftly returned."How could this happen? What have I done?"After understanding the situation, she stared at Sean's bleeding arm in shock, and the paring k

"Mr. Carlson?" Evander tentatively called Cedric."Take me back to the Carlsons." Cedric struggled to get up from the couch. His feet staggered, but his gaze looked lonely and furious."Yes, sir." Evander dared not say anything more and opened the door for him.-At the Carlson mansion.Melissa looked a little listless. She glanced at Matthew, who was still reading the newspaper beside her, and snatched it away angrily. "How can you still read leisurely here? What's there to read about? Our son hasn't recovered yet, and you haven't even gone to see him!""I've called Vivienne. She told me that Cedric hasn't been there these past few days." Matthew looked aggrieved. A vague hint of uneasiness lingered in his chest, too.In the past, Cedric's attitude toward Sophie seemed indifferent, almost negligible. Matthew had once thought that Cedric had married her only because of Jeff's insistence. However, with the recent events, he discovered that Sophie meant more to Cedric than he had

Chapter 150

'At least Vivienne is easy to handle. With Sophie's arrogance, would I still have a say in this family if she were to have the child?'Cedric clenched his hands. "So, you hired someone to impersonate a doctor and abort my child!""I... She… Didn't... Didn't the plan fail, and she didn't get harmed?" Melissa was a little scared now, subconsciously lowering her head and voice.Only then did Matthew figure out what was happening and pointed at Melissa, trembling in anger. "You! How could you do such a thing?! The child that Sophie's pregnant with is a Carlson!"Even if Melissa did not like Sophie, she must not do such an absurd thing."There are plenty of women who want to give birth for Cedric. Who cares about the child in Sophie's womb?" Melissa blurted out her true thoughts out of nervousness."I care!" Cedric's fist slammed hard against a nearby pillar, shattering the decorative bricks inlaid into pieces. His bloodshot eyes stared straight into Melissa's soul. His words punctuat
