See You Never, Mr. Lamont by Coral

Chapter 147 What Did You Say to Her?

Upon hearing the name “Claudia”, Claudia clenched her fist and placed it over her lips, coughing shyly.

The brat called her “chick” the first time he saw her, but now he calls her “Claudia”. Talk about a straight-up

upgrade in treatment.

As for the secret he mentioned, she didn’t take it seriously.

Abel, as if afraid that she would refuse, added another sentence, “It’s about my mother.”

Rosalie?

Claudia’s expression froze, wanting to continue asking, but she saw him running into the campus with a small

backpack on his back.

Claudia smiled helplessly and mentioned Rosalie. She really had to come over in the evening.

After sending Abel off, she went straight to the hospital.

Cicely was still in the hospital, and she wanted to see if there was anywhere she could help.

Thinking about what the doctor said at that time, Claudia furrowed her brow tightly.

The doctor said that my mother-in-law was in the late stage of cancer and it would be difficult for her to survive

until New Year.

There were only a few months left until the New Year.

A gust of wind blew by, and suddenly she felt cold from head to toe.

When she arrived at the hospital, she went straight to the front desk, intending to inquire about Cicely’s ward, only

to see a familiar figure walking toward the escalator,

It was Edmond,

He walked in a hurry, looking very anxious,

Claudia didn’t think much and followed him onto the escalator.

People were coming and going in the hospital, Edmond stood out with his exceptional temperament and good looks.

People on the escalator couldn’t help but stare at him as they went up and down.

He was already taller than the average man, standing there in a long custom-made overcoat, he was just like a

scenery.

Claudia held her breath and followed behind him, afraid that he would notice her.

Fortunately, he didn’t have time to pay attention to the people around him. He didn’t look back all the way until he

entered a ward, and she followed him in.

In the ward, many doctors and experts stood, with the attending physician being the director of the hospital,

specializing in cancer- related illnesses.

“Mr. Lamont, during the rescue process, we found that the patient did not have much will to survive. As you know,

the psychological state of cancer patients is very important. Family members must pay more attention to the

patient’s mood. We have also seen patients without the will to live, most of whom are afraid of spending money and

only seek death. However, with your conditions, such a situation should not have occurred…”

The doctor was taking notes while describing Cicely’s condition.

Edmond stood on the side, listening, with a furrowed brow and a faint trace of anger hidden deep within his dark

eyes.

Harvey said that his mother had an emergency after chatting with Claudia. At that time, Claudia asked to get out of

the car, and he didn’t know what she said to his mother before she fell ill.

He understood Cicely and knew that even though he had become more indifferent after falling ill, he still had the

will to survive.

She couldn’t let go of Abel, nor could she let go of the Lamont family.

He was perfectly fine before, how did he suddenly lose his will to live?

Claudia asked her mother to get out of the car and talk, clearly to avoid Abel and Harvey.

What did she say to her mother in the end?

Taking into account Claudia’s recent actions and background, Edmond’s lips tightened into a thin line, his jaw

clenched tightly, as cold as frost.

After the doctor left, Claudia walked in.

She couldn’t hear the doctor’s words clearly from a distance. As soon as she entered the room, she anxiously

walked up to Edmond and asked, “How is Cicely?”

Edmond’s gaze fell upon her, his eyes filled with coldness. “The doctor said she had no will to live.”

“What did you say to her after you got out of the car?”

Claudia was taken aback and said blankly, “I didn’t say anything…”

She just mentioned her pregnancy, why would it make her mother-in-

law lose the will to live?

Thinking of some of Cicely’s words, she furrowed her brow.

Grandmother said she no longer cared about Rosalie’s affairs, saying she knew Edmond had moved on, and she

died without regrets.

At that time, she thought her mother-in-law was just casually saying it, but she didn’t expect her to really intend to

give up everything and wholeheartedly seek death.

In the late stage of cancer, the body is mostly uncomfortable. Although my mother-in-law didn’t show it on the

surface, perhaps she had already been unable to bear it.

Claudia’s face sank and she looked full of regret.

I shouldn’t have said it if I had known earlier.

“Harvey said that after you spoke to mom, you were acting strange as soon as you got in the car,” Edmond looked

at her with a slightly regretful expression, his eyes deep and terrifying.

He might have believed that Claudia wouldn’t harm her mother in the past, but ever since he found out about her

unusual background, every action she did raised many suspicions.

Edmond’s heart was pri cked like a needle at the thought of her

deliberate attempts to get close to and please him after her marriage.

Claudia’s heart trembled at Edmond’s harsh gaze, as an unprecedented pain entangled her.

Edmond doubted her again.

“Cicely was good to me, I will never do anything to hurt her in my entire life,” Claudia sneered, feeling a deep sense

of sorrow in her

heart.

Even though the mother-in-law had done those things before, she was sad but she didn’t hate her.

Compared to the care my mother-in-law has given her in the past three years, those things are not worth

mentioning.

But she did regret telling her mother-in-law the truth about her

pregnancy

She hung her head, full of regret, looking somewhat pitiful.

Edmond glanced at her lightly and was about to warn her when a voice interrupted, “Edmond.”

Upon hearing her mother-in-law’s voice, Claudia quickly walked over

to her and asked, “How are you? Is there anywhere that doesn’t feel well?”

Cicely forced a smile, propping herself up and said, “I’m fine, don’t worry. I wasn’t going to die yet.”

After finishing speaking, I looked at Edmond and said to him, “Don’t blame Claudia, she didn’t do anything to me. It

was me who didn’t want to live anymore.”

She listened to those words just now in a daze, afraid that Edmond and Claudia’s relationship would further

deteriorate, and forced herself to wake up.

“If it weren’t for Claudia helping me send Abel, I wouldn’t have been able to survive. Now I am also struggling on

the verge of death. Instead of enduring the pain, it would be better to die early. I just want to seek some relief.”

Cicely sighed softly, but Claudia was startled.

Guessing is one thing, but hearing my grandmother say she wants to die is another.

“Don’t think like that,” Claudia said, holding her hand, struggling to find the right words.

Cicely looked at herself being so nervous and smiled with relief.

She genuinely liked her daughter-in-law from the bottom of her heart and deeply regretted the hurtful things she

had done to her recently.

Fate is always mysterious. She didn’t expect that Claudia turned out to be the lost child of the Friedan family.

Thinking about Edmond’s attitude toward Claudia just now, and realizing that she was already exhausted, she

suddenly came up with an idea.

She waved at Edmond and said, “Edmond, come here.”

Edmond obediently walked over, and Cicely held Edmond’s hand, placing it on top of Claudia’s hand.

Claudia was extremely surprised and just about to break free, but she was tightly gripped by Cicely.

Feeling the warmth of the small, soft palm in his hand, Edmond pursed his lips and glanced at her lightly.

With just one glance, Claudia’s heart leaped.

His palm was very hot, and the scalding sensation transferred to her palm, rushing straight to her cheeks.

She didn’t dare to move, sitting stiffly.

“Some misunderstandings, it’s time to unravel them,” Cicely said, her

gentle gaze resting on their intertwined hands.

Claudia’s heart ski pped a beat, and she suddenly had a feeling that something was not quite right.
