How could that be?
Was today April Fools? Was someone playing a joke on him?
She was still so young. Why did she hang herself?
He did not believe it. He could not believe that Cate was dead.
He rushed out of the room.
He sped to the hospital and grabbed one of the doctors at the psychiatric department. “Which room is Cate Cox’s ward?”
“She has been sent to the morgue.”
“The morgue?”
Shaun held his breath, and a cold glint shot out from his eyes. “Why did you send her to the morgue?”
The doctor was so frightened by his fierce expression that his legs trembled. “She… She died. It’s the hospital’s standard procedure to send her to the morgue.”
Shaun flung him aside and rushed to the morgue.
Shaun lifted the white cloth with his hands trembling, only to see Cate lying there silently. If it had not been for the dark, green bruise on her neck, she would have looked like she was sleeping.
He placed his trembling hand by her nose to see if she was breathing.
It was icy.
Was she actually dead?
He then hit his head hard.
He had to be dreaming. This was not real.
The last time they met, she was even criticizing and biting people.
How did she pass away so suddenly?
“Get lost, Shaun.”
A strong force pushed him away from behind.
Mireya dashed to the side of the bed. After seeing Cate’s dead body, she glared at Shaun indignantly. “It’s all your doing, b*stard. You are the one who drove Cate to her death, you murderer.”
“I didn’t. She… She was ill.”
Shaun did not even cast his bloodshot eyes over to Mireya. He just froze to the spot, staring at Cate.
He still could not resign himself to the situation.
He could not understand himself. He did not love Cate at all.
However, why did he feel as if his soul had been taken away? It was as if he had lost someone significant in his life?
Tears even welled up uncontrollably and blurred his vision.
“You’re the one who is ill.”
Amid her sobs, Mireya howled and criticized him, “Cate was fine. You were the one who had been torturing and imprisoning her. You pushed her of your own accord and made her lose her babies. You even imprisoned her in the mental hospital and took away all her freedom. All of you drove her crazy. It doesn’t matter if you didn’t have feelings for her. You could’ve just divorce her. But why did you have to force her to be pregnant with children for you and Sarah? Why wouldn’t you let her go?”
“This is good too. Now that she’s dead, she’s finally freed. She has been freed from being tortured by you guys. I’ll take her away. I won’t let you shameless couple keep her dead body.”
Mireya took a deep breath and asked someone to move Cate away.
“What are you doing?” Shaun subconsciously clutched her arm. “She’s my wife, so I’ll handle her burial. It’s none of your business.”
“Have you ever treated her as your wife? What gives you the right to bury her, you scumbag?”
Mireya took out a bloodstained cloth and stuffed it into his chest. “Look at it carefully. Cate wrote her last words on it using her own blood. She doesn’t want you to bury her, and she doesn’t want to be buried under the Lyons family either. She just wants to stay away from you.”
Shaun froze at the sight of those blood-written words.
Did she resent him so much?
Perhaps he should let her go.
However, he could not bring himself to do it when he looked at her face.
He could not avert his eyes from her.
He could not accept the fact that he would not see her in his life anymore.
“No way. You can’t take her away.” Shaun blocked Mireya determinedly.
“Shaun, just let her take Cate away.”
All of a sudden, Old Madam Lyons’s voice sounded at the door.
He abruptly turned his head around to see Old Master Lyons, Old Madam Lyons, and Liam standing there. He did not know when they had appeared.
The moment Liam saw Cate, he could not help but punch Shaun in the face. “How shameless of you to think of burying her, b*stard. You didn’t even treat her as a human when she was alive, so now that she’s dead, why aren’t you letting her go?”
“Just because I didn’t meddle in your affairs, you ended up pushing Cate and killing the twins. I only found out about this incident two days ago,” Old Master Lyons said furiously. “How could you possibly be so inhuman? You can be a fickle lover, but you cannot treat your wife and children this way. Even your mom didn’t go as far as this.”
“Exactly,” Old Madam Lyons said in despair. “When your wife was pregnant, you messed around with Sarah all day and night. Not only did you ignore her, but you also imprisoned her and caused her to end up in a mental hospital. You’ve experienced a mental hospital when you were young too. How could you do such a heartless thing? She’s already dead, yet you refuse to free her. Are you planning to show her how in love you are with Sarah at her own funeral?”
“Please, I beg you. Let her go.” Mireya suddenly sank to her knees and wept bitterly. “She was never happy during her time in Canberra. I’d like to bring her back to Melbourne, back to where she came from.”
“Take her away.” Old Master Lyons waved his hand. He might not have been fond of Cate in the beginning, but during their time together recently, he began to like her for her obedience. “You tortured her so badly when she was alive. Now that she’s dead, just free her and leave her in peace.”
Old Madam Lyons said in agony, “Shaun, I don’t understand why you’ve become so cruel.”
In that instant, Shaun’s chest clenched.
Was he cruel?
Was he wrong?
He did not mean to lock Cate up.
He was under the impression that she was suffering from depression.
He had initially thought of giving her a sum of money that was sufficient for her to spend in her lifetime and made her leave after she gave birth to the children.
Yet, why did she die just like that?
Shaun was frozen to the spot.
In the end, Mireya took Cate away.
The scene of the two of them meeting for the first time flashed across his mind off and on.
“I’m actually ill, but I’m not insane. I’m lovesick.”
“Pretty boy, you look so charming with your eyes closed that women just find it irresistible.”
“I want to marry you.”
“I swear that from now on, I will only treat you well, and I’ll promise you everything I’ve said…”
“…”
In fact, she used to be so cute and pretty like a little vixen.
So when did he start harboring resentment toward her, especially when he saw her?
Was he the one who drove her to this state?
At that point, Shaun was confused like a kid at his wits’ end.
He could not even recall how he walked out of the hospital.
It was then Sarah appeared in front of him, and her red eyes were filled with guilt. “It’s my fault. I thought she was suffering from mild depression. I didn’t know that her condition was so severe. 15 percent of the people diagnosed with depression tend to commit suicide. I should’ve treated her. I’m sorry.”
However, Shaun directly walked past Sarah as if he did not hear her.
All he had in his mind was Cate’s dead look with her eyes closed.
What was he doing when she died?
