Chapter 135: Moral Corruption

Cecilia gave a slight shudder, looking at Annie.

Annie’s eyes were slightly red, she took a deep breath and looked at Kylan:

“Ms. Cruise was kidnapped by Daniel and accidentally fell into the sea. Derick jumped in to save her. Mr. Clement’s people searched for two days and a night, but they couldn’t find them. It’s feared that the chances of survival are slim…”

Cecilia’s face changed color, she staggered back, almost falling down.

Kylan quickly steadied Cecilia, his eyes coldly fixed on Annie:

“Kidnapped by Daniel?”

Annie nodded, tears inevitably spilling out:

“Daniel, seeing his scheme exposed, tried to use me as a hostage. However, he got his just deserts and ended up falling into the sea.”

Her words had just fallen.

The room had fallen silent.

Cecilia’s face looked extremely awful.

She had always refused to believe other people’s rumors, but it was only when she heard these words firsthand that she felt so sad she could hardly breathe.

Annie stood there, sobbing softly in sorrow:

“Take care, Ms. Cruise. Mr. Clement, in his efforts to investigate your accident, has not rested and is greatly affected. He is now unconscious, and we are truly… very upset.”

Ava, who was nearby, walked over and patted Annie on the shoulder:

“What a good child you are. Keeping you by Pierce’s side was indeed the right decision. Pierce almost had an accident this time, thanks to you!”

She had heard all about it. If it hadn’t been for Annie grabbing Pierce in time, he would have fallen into the sea!

Ava was distraught at the thought. That Sophia, even in death, couldn’t stay put. Was she really trying to lure her son to his death?

Ava sighed, opening her mouth with a smile:

“Once Pierce woke up, I took charge, urging you to get engaged as soon as possible. I am very satisfied with you as a daughter–in–law.”

Annie’s eyes sparkled as she excitedly grabbed Ava’s arm.

Cecilia looked ashen, having no mood to see their triumphant

expressions.

She walked anxiously towards the door.

Cecilia, who had always been elegant and composed, suddenly became vulnerable.

Ava caught up and kindly advised her:

“Mrs. Cruise, I know you were close with Sophia, but I advise you not to be too upset.”
