Chapter 1063
Catelyn was so frightened that her heart almost stopped beating and ached sharply. She ran up to the second floor in a
hurry.
The bedroom was filled with a strong smell of blood.
Ezekiel was lying on the bed, his bleeding wrist resting on the edge of the clean white sheet. There was a pool of blood
on the ground. His wrinkled old face turned pale from blood loss. He looked dying.
Catelyn ordered the maid to call an ambulance and then took a medical kit to treat Ezekiel's wound.
The wound was so deep that his bones could be seen. She wrapped thick gauze around it but still couldn't stop the
bleeding.

"Cat, I killed someone. I should be punished by the law." Ezekiel's unfocused eyes were narrowed as he choked, "But I
really don't want to go back to jail. I would rather die than spend the rest of my life in jail. Don't save me..."
"What are you talking about? I'm your daughter. How can I stand by and watch you die?"
"But if I don't die, what are you and Cedrick going to do? I killed his closest aunt... It's all my fault. Why wasn't I the
one who fell downstairs? If so, you wouldn't be in such a difficult position. I really want to die..."
The more Ezekiel spoke, the more emotional he became. Suddenly, he couldn't catch his breath. His head lolled,
and he closed his eyes.
Catelyn trembled and reached for his neck to take his pulse. After making sure he was still alive, she slowly took a
breath in tears.
Ezekiel's pride in his bones would never allow him to go back to prison.
However, someone had to take the blame for Janice's death...
She thought, 'Cedrick, I just want to live happily with you, but why is it so hard?'
Nandose Villa.
When Catelyn came back, the villa was preparing for the funeral.
Draco was sitting on the sofa, organizing photo albums. The table was
piled with all kinds of photos. Janice rarely attended the Mason family's banquets due to her bad health, but every
time Cedrick had a birthday party, she would definitely come on time.
Draco used to look down on Daphne and Janice.
But there was no denying that Janice had acted as a mother to take care of Cedrick all these years and...
Seeing Catelyn coming, Draco sighed quietly and pointed upstairs.
Cedrick returned back from the hospital and locked himself in Janice's room without coming out. They managed to

himself in her room.
Catelyn's mind flashed back to the moments with Janice.
Janice sat on the couch watching cartoons with Catelyn's two children. They built blocks, made cakes, and made wishes
together...
Catelyn was so sad that she wanted to cry, and she didn't dare to go upstairs to Janice's bedroom.
She felt guilty.
Catelyn was so sorry.
Draco saw her lost in thought, so he sat with her for a while and said to Eason, "Go call Cedrick down."
"Yes."
Eason looked at Catelyn with a complicated expression and went to the master bedroom on the second floor.
The master bedroom was even messier than Eason had imagined. He had heard the bangs earlier. As he came in, he
found that almost everything had been smashed to bits by Cedrick.
Cedrick sat on the floor with his back to the door, one leg bent, and one arm on his knee. His shadow lengthened in the
light, and his short hair was disheveled. He looked so depressed.
