Chapter 772 - 766: Uncovering the Truth (Part 6)
What has anything to do with the Ford family? Come at me instead.
Poppy, she was just a child.
He couldn’t comprehend how twisted a woman’s mind must be to harm a child.
He still remembered Rouge Jarvis’s eyes, swollen from crying when she talked about Poppy. Now he too tasted this suffocating pain.
It’s not like falling, getting up, and blowing on the wound to ease the pain; it’s an everlasting agony, a lifetime scar upon the heart, unbearable whenever recalled.
Jonas Jarvis laughed, she said, "I never intended to harm that little girl. I just handed her to a rural woman, asking her to take care properly. Who could have known she would leave the child alone in the rented room? Gas leaked, exploded, and she was burned like that."
He never doubted Jonas Jarvis’s word, because Pearl later told him why the child was raised by the Ford family—because Poppy was dead, burned.
DNA verified she was Poppy, and her sister couldn’t accept it, telling him never to mention it again.
He would never doubt the Ford family’s capabilities. If they confirmed Poppy was dead, then she was definitely dead.
In that moment, Jonas Jarvis felt the urge to kill. If she hadn’t plotted against him at the farewell banquet from the start, how would he have betrayed Pearl?
If she hadn’t orchestrated a car accident and left him comatose, how could she have taken the opportunity to swap his and Pearl’s child?
Pearl first became depressed because of his unknown condition post-accident, then postpartum depression due to childbirth complications, incessantly worrying about losing the child.
She depended on her sister and had no time to care, so the child was fostered. He even thought, had Pearl known the child was already gone, she wouldn’t have held so much hope, nor faced the pain of losing another child.
If she hadn’t taken Poppy away, if Poppy stayed well with the Ford family, how would she have died?
Cynthia Morgan is a demon.
What is the point of people like her existing in the world? To continue hurting the innocent?
He dragged her into the kitchen, took out a cleaver, severed her right hand.
When he was about to cut her throat, he suddenly thought of Pearl. If he became a murderer, the police would surely investigate thoroughly.
The entanglements between him and Cynthia Morgan would definitely be unraveled completely.
By then, the fact that their daughter wasn’t around would inevitably reach Pearl. If he were imprisoned, Pearl would simultaneously lose both a child and a husband; what would she do?
What would she do?
At the critical moment, he stopped.
Amid Cynthia Morgan’s ghost-like laughter, the cleaver dropped to the ground.
He fell into endless suffering, telling her if she dared show up again, he would definitely kill her.
He definitely would.
By then, after killing the source of evil, he would resolve the matter himself, dying silently.
He hoped for a few more years from the heavens, time to be with Pearl, to not leave Pearl so soon.
He hasn’t loved enough...
Still wants to see her hair turn silver.
She is his Pearl indeed.
As he wished, Cynthia Morgan never appeared again, and everything returned to the beginning.
Everyone quieted down, and the Ford family gradually hid the pain of losing a daughter, as if all these were from a previous life.
During the day, he gave Pearl the best of himself, while in countless solitary nights, he awoke in heartache.
Because, he felt guilty.
