Chapter 410
After that, Cormar came up with a plan to con Chuck out of the house he had bought for our marriage. Because of this, Chuck’s mother was hospitalized and passed away.”
At that point, Samantha was wiping her tears, and so was Joanna
Samantha asked, “Did Cormac pay you?”
Laurel shook her head. “No, he didn’t. He promised to give me seven and a half thousand dollars, holding up his end. He gave me quite a sum of money to try and keep me happy but the amount was just the tip of the iceberg compared to what my father needed.
“Cormac said he’d pay me another forty–five thousand if I did as he asked, but after I did what he asked and asked him for my payment, he told me to let him have his way with me one more time. Again, I allowed him to do it for the sake of the money.
“After that came the incident at the bar. Cormac became interested in a few female students but they refused to play along. They ended up being beaten to death because of how drunk he was and he later pinned it all on Chuck. Even the forty–five thousand 1 was promised wasn’t paid in the end since he abandoned me after Chuck was sent to prison.”
“How’s your father then? Has he recovered?” Samantha asked
Laurel shook her head “No, he died in the hospital because I couldn’t afford his surgery. 1 was planning on leaving Swallowston alter he died but 1 met Mason. He helped me through my darkest moments which was why I married him. We even welcomed our daughter together this year.”
Everyone fell silent when they found out the entire truth. Now, the question was–who was at fault here?
Laurel may have done wrong but she did it all to try and save her father.
Then, was Chuck at fault? No. All he wanted was to love a woman.
Samantha felt pity for Laurel after hearing the story. “You seem really calm about all this. Did you already know someone would end up finding out what really happened?”
Laurel nodded. “Of course, I knew someone would eventually learn the truth. Cormar was too arrogant so it was only a matter of time before his crimes were exposed and he would be arrested. Plus, there were many witnesses who saw him murder the girls at the bar.
“I knew you’d come to arrest me someday. I just didn’t think it’d be this soon. Also, I wasn’t expecting Cormac and his father. to be executed already.”
“Do you regret your actions?” Samantha asked.
“Yes, I do. But sometimes, I don’t. My father sacrificed so much to raise me so all I wanted to do was cure him. But I never thought things would end up the way they did and that I’d hurt Chuck, I suppose I deserve this.”
Laurel seemed to have accepted her fate with open arms. Her words caused everyone to lament how helpless people could feel
As they made their way to the Battle Warrior Department, Laurel looked out the window, knowing that there was no more hope for her. She just wanted to take in the scenery and sear it into her memory
Right at that moment, Adrian asked, “Chuck’s still alive Would you like to see lin?”
Laurel shook her head. “No, I don’t, I did him wrong and I will never be able ta rualue it up to him until I’m dead. If possible, please help me pass on a message…
“Tell him that I’ll make it up to laim in my next life and that he deserves to find a decent woman to marry. Let him know that I also wish him all the happiness in the world.”
“Have you ever thought about what will happen to your baby in the future? She’s still so little, after all,” Joanna asked.
Mason will take care of her. I… There’s nothing I can do for her.”
