Chapter 1709

“Yes. Tell Minister Mead to give me a little more time,” Wesley said in a low voice.

“Okay. By the way, my dad said not to leave Matthew alone. The harder you push Titus, the crueler his
revenge will be. Titus is a formidable and ruthless person. He is different from ordinary people.”
Hannah warned him before leaving.

In the ward, Wesley lowered his eyes and looked at his phone.

From the start, when he used Catherine’s hair to pass Rebecca off as Sheryl’s daughter, he was
already stepping on a tightrope.

Now that he had come this far, he could no longer retreat.

Sheryl was his only hope.

In Militaire Hospital.

Sheryl was drowsy after being given an injection. As she was falling asleep, she felt someone touching
her hair.

“Sherry, I’m sorry. I really didn’t want to do this to you… Seeing you like this hurts me more than
anyone… but I don’t have a choice… I think that if you’re clear-headed, you wouldn’t want to see
yourself like this either… You must stay strong… I hope…”

It was Titus’s voice.

She did not pay attention to the words toward the end. All she felt was hatred and anger.

It hurt him more than anyone? Who was it who made her like this?



Titus Costner. Titus Costner…



She really did not think he would be so vicious. These days, he had locked her up here every day on
the basis that he was trying to treat her.

However, she was not sick at all. It was him who wanted to drive her crazy.

After living in a place like Neah Bay, where people fought and schemed against each other, she had
seen all kinds of darkness before.

Yet, she had never expected her beloved husband to do this.

She was in pain, so much pain that she felt like she was going crazy.

Eventually, she passed out from the pain.

When she woke up again, a nurse was drawing blood from her. Upon seeing that she was awake, the
nurse quickly stuffed a note into Sheryl’s hand.

Sheryl was stunned for a moment and did not move.

After the nurse left, she turned around, curled up, and opened up the note. ‘Titus locked Rebecca up.
While she was trying to escape, she accidentally fell down from the balcony and died.’

Her brain exploded.

She felt like the string she had been holding on to suddenly snapped.

Rebecca was dead?



Her daughter was dead?

Although she had only known Rebecca for a short amount of time, she was her daughter.

She had not even fulfilled her duty as a mother, yet her daughter was already gone.

Rebecca had gone through so much to return to her side, only to have Titus kill her.

Why? Why did this happen?

Rebecca came to her, but not only could she not protect her as a mother, but she even brought harm to
Rebecca.
