Chapter 240 Despair 

Cedric didn’t wake up until the next day’s evening. 

Outside the window, the cold rain carried the scent of earth. Even the wind seemed damp. 

The moment he opened his eyes, the stark white light stung his eyes. Memories in his mind kept pulling at 

his body, causing a numbing pain all over. 

Rebecca was sitting on a chair by the bedside, already asleep. The moment she heard movement and 

opened her eyes, she saw Cedric running barefoot towards the exit. 

Alarmed, she called out, “Ced, where are you going?” 

She hurriedly followed after him. 

The moment they stepped out of the ward, they saw Cedric entering the elevator at the far end of the 

corridor. 

At that moment of eye contact. Rebecca clearly saw the hollow despair in Cedric’s eyes. It mixed with the 

pallor of his face, making it extremely bleak. 

Rebecca’s heart raced in panic. 

“Ced, wait! Wait for me…” 

She hurried over, but Cedric seemed not to hear. 

As the elevator doors closed, Rebecca tried to stop it with her hands. 

“Ced! Ced!” 

But it was too late. 

Watching the elevator descend, Rebecca shakily dialed a number. 

Soon, Lucas’s voice came from the other end. 

“Madam?” 

“He’s gone to find Natalie; hurry and stop him,” Rebecca said in a trembling tone. 

Her eyes were filled with anxiety. 

Two days..! 

In just a short two days, Verde City had completely changed. 

The Johnson family had changed, and Natalle… 

Natalie was gone.

Ding! 

The elevator door opened, and Cedric, in hospital attire and barefoot, walked out of the elevator just as 

Lucas arrived. 

There was a devastated look on Cedric’s face. 

“Sir,” Lucas said as he approached Cedric and tried to stop him. 

Rebecca’s worries were justified. 

Considering the current situation, showing Cedric what happened would only make him more distressed. 

However, not letting him see was seemingly impossible. 

Lucas eventually withdrew his hand as he noticed the despair in Cedric’s eyes. Cedric walked out, and 

Lucas quietly followed him. 

Soon, the two arrived together at the burned–down detention center. 

Cedric got out of the car and saw the ruins before him. Some pillars had not completely collapsed, but 

they were burnt pitch black. 

The only intact thing at the scene was the caution tape. 

Cedric walked numbly towards it. 

He needed to find Natalie. She… was still inside. She had a cleanliness obsession. She disliked this kind 

of filth. 

Lucas approached and said, “Sir, Ms. Walker is not here anymore.” 

“Then… where is she?” Cedric asked with a hoarse voice. 

He was trying hard to suppress the emotions pressing on him, but Lucas could still hear the despair 

emanating from deep within him. 

Unable to bear watching him any longer, Lucas finally looked down and said, “Ms. Walker was cremated 

+15 BONUS 

Cedric was silent. 

Upon hearing this, his whole body seemed to lose strength. The world became chaotic, tearing at his 

nerves incessantly. 

The word ‘cremated further disrupted his already chaotic rationality. 

Natalie was so afraid of burns. She was so afraid of fire. How could they use fire to cremate her? How 

could they subject her to cremation? 

In their previous life, Scarlet Villa… And now the detention center in front of him, then the cremation–how 

could she endure it?! 

Cedric’s inner turmoil continued. 

Even breathing felt suffocating. 

Before he could speak, Lucas continued, “Mr. Jarvis has already taken her ashes to Simeria for burial. He 

also asked me to pass on a message to you.” 

“What message?” Cedric finally spoke. 

Yet, at this moment, he seemed unable to hear his own voice. He could only hear a constant buzzing in 

his head. 

His entire body was trembling. 

Lucas lowered his head, unable to bear looking at him any longer, and said, “Mr. Jarvis came personally. 

When he took Ms. Walker away last night, he asked you not to go to Simeria. Ms. Walker didn’t want to 

stay in Verde City because she didn’t want to see anyone from Verde City 

Verde City… 

It was the place where Natalie had lived for so many years. Yet, at the time of her death, she had no 

attachment to it. 

It was evident that this place left her with nothing but endless despair. 

Only despair and nothing else. 

A chilling wind swept through the place, 

Cedric stood in place, the cold piercing through him. Yet, it couldn’t compare to the coldness in his heart 

after losing Natalie. 

In the end, he was still too late.. 

+15 BONUS 

In his previous life, he had failed to protect her. In this life, he pushed her into the abyss with his own hands. 

Lowering his head, he looked at his trembling hands–it was these hands that had personally pushed her away. 

With these hands, he sent Natalie into hell 

It was these hands…! 

“Ahhh….” 

A hysterical outburst echoed over the entire sky of Verde City, as if a wild beast had gone out of control after losing its beloved. 

Natalie was gone. 

Again, it was a fire that took away… 

Took away whose soul, exactly? 

Whose obsession did it burn away? 

Whose regrets? 

When Cedric woke up again, Lucas had already brought him back to the hospital. 

Rebecca was wiping her tears by his bedside. 

Lucas was also there. 

also th 

“Ced.” 

Seeing Cedric wake up, Rebecca held his hand with eyes filled with sorrow, 

However, Cedric coldly withdrew his hand from Rebecca’s, his movements efficient and emotionless. 

Rebecca’s hands felt empty. 

“When?” Cedric asked weakly 

He was asking Lucas.. 

+15 BONUS 

Lucas hesitated for a moment, instantly understanding what Cedric was asking. 

He was asking about the timing of Natalie’s funeral. 

A solemn look flashed across his features, 

“I just received news. Mr. Jarvis has returned to Simeria, and Ms. Walker has already been buried today.” 

Already buried? Today? 

So they didn’t even give a chance to accompany Natalie on her final journey? 

The atmosphere in the hospital room once again became tense 

Rebecca didn’t want Cedric to ask about everything related to Natalie, but how could she stop him? 

Up until now, the matters from the banquet hadn’t been resolved. Things were already bad, and now it 

seemed the Johnson family was about to face a major crisis. 

Thinking about the scenes to come, Rebecca looked at Cedric with dread. 

“Where was she buried?” Cedric finally asked. 

She had been buried. 

Natalie was no longer part of the world, whether in his previous or current life. 

Thinking about this outcome, Cedric couldn’t help but feel a wave of despair. It felt as if the pain would 

completely engulf him. 

A subtle pain emanated from his chest. 

“Ced, don’t ask anymore.” Rebecca couldn’t bear it any longer. 

What good would it do to ask? 

Natalie was no longer here. 

But Cedric didn’t even look at her. Even when she spoke, she could sense the increasing coldness 

emanating from him. 

Lucas replied, “The Ice City Cemetery in Simeria.” 

Ice City Cemetery? 

It showed Stephen’s status in Simeria, for them to have buried Natalie in the burial ground of the Simeria 

royal family! 

And that place, perhaps, granted her the tranquility she desired? 

Nat, his Nat…. 

Even after death, she didn’t want to see him? 

Like in their previous life, no matter how steadfast he was… 

The day she understood him never came.
