Chapter 212 Tragedy

Natalie’s eyelashes fluttered as her hands stopped.

Even though Ida had been through a lot, she couldn’t help but sigh again as she recalled the past. “Shanice Zarate was a famous and talented socialite in Dellmoor when she was young. After she was married into the Bowers family, she gave birth to Mr. Samuel and Mr. Steven. However, one night, when her sons were fast asleep, she cut her own wrists. Mr. Samuel was only five at that time. He woke up after he smelled the scent of blood. The moment his eyes opened, he saw his mother covered in blood as she passed away.”
