Chapter 256 The Stubborn Girl

Time flew by like a swift shuttle.

A massive fire had altered the lives of all those involved.

Two years later, the world’s top tier commercial speech event in Simeria dazzled everyone…

Lucas hurriedly entered Verde City Prison to see Cedric. Two years had transformed the man into

someone cold and steady.

“What’s the matter?” Cedric asked with an icy tone upon seeing Lucas.

It had been two years.

Since the day Rebecca left, Cedric hadn’t met anyone else apart from those from the company.

In the meantime, Rebecca had tried numerous times to reach out, but Cedric rejected every attempt. He

even turned away calls from Simeria.

Lucas had visited countless times during this period, but his serious expression now was a first.

Cedric thought something might be wrong with the company.

Cedric frowned, “Then what?”

Lucas looked at him with complex emotions in his eyes. Obviously, the unexpected news had left everyone at a loss for words.

When Rebecca had first learned of it, she didn’t know how to break it to Cedric. It was beyond surprising.

and it was downright… hateful!

In the past two years, Christina had been sentenced to prison for life, and Cedric had paid a heavy price.

Yet, the person who was supposed to be dead…..!

It was a deception.

A blatant deception!

“Just leave it if you’re not going to talk, Cedric said, about to hang up.

“Wait,” Lucas stopped him in time.
