Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me?

Chapter 621 Edmund Saves the Day

No one knew how Joella died. When Elspeth and Callum arrived at the hospital after hearing the news, all they saw was a cold body that was already covered up. The cries of the boy standing beside the body echoed in the stillness of the hospital.

For some reason, the ones behind Joella's death seemed to have purposely kept Cameron alive. His cries went on and on.

Elspeth knew he was drowning in the sorrow and pain of losing his mother, so she crouched down to stroke his head, but he shoved her away.

"It's all your fault! My mommy wouldn't have died if it weren't for you!"

Cameron didn't know what happened. All he knew was that ever since this woman in front of him came to his house, his mother started acting a little strange, and then she died.

That, combined with the way his mother seemed to fear this woman whenever she saw her, was enough for him to assume that this woman caused his mother's death. Even if she didn't do it, she had to be part of the reason why his mother died.

Cameron's hatred and resentment consumed him as he screamed, "You're a bad woman! Why did you have to show up in our lives?! Mommy did everything she could to hide from you, so why did you show up?! Why did you have to appear?!"

Elspeth couldn't speak. She couldn't bring herself to reprimand a boy who looked so much like Callum. She knew that there was no way of explaining the whole situation to a child. The most important thing right now was to find the culprit behind Joella's death.

"Don't worry, Cam. I'll help you find the person who killed your mother."

That was the only thing Elspeth could think of to say right now to comfort the boy.

"Isn't it obvious who killed my mommy?" Cameron shrieked through his tears. "It's you, you horrible woman!"

He pushed Elspeth again and tried to run off.

However, he didn't get very far before Callum grabbed him.

"I know you're in a lot of pain because you lost your mother." Callum tried his best to rein in his temper. "But, you shouldn't be blaming it on someone else without any proof. You're a boy. You need to learn to be a man and take responsibility."

Alas, Cameron wasn't in a position to listen to any kind of advice. All he knew was that his mother was dead and he no longer had anyone to rely on. "I know you're with her! You're both bad people!"
