Chapter 743

Theo drove home in no time at all. Munchkin and I got in the car.

Sensing my somewhat low mood, he turned around to look at me. "Are you in a bad mood?”

I shook my head. "No."

The car was a little warm with the heater on, stuffy even. I took off my jacket.

I did not say anything on the way, feeling no particular emotions. I merely felt a stuffy feeling in m y

chest. Munchkin was constantly talking to Theo, so i t was not at all quiet.

When we got to the restaurant and entered the private room, Mason was already waiting inside.

Fortunately, he was alone.

When he saw Munchkin, his charming face lit up with a smile. He held Munchkin, asking him all

sorts of questions.

I sat down and Theo held my hand, asking me once more, "Are you in a bad mood?"

I pursed my lips. "I really am not."

Theo looked deeply at me but did not ask further.

The waiter served the food and I saw Mason kept

staring at Munchkin. I took a deep breath, asking," How many months pregnant is Nadia now?"

"The child in her womb is gone," Mason said, his voice cold and with little emotions.

I thought I had heard wrongly and could not help but ask, "What?"

He finally looked at me and said sternly, "There's an unstable lie of the fetus, so even if she gives

birth, the fetus will not live. Hence, it was aborted."

Theo stopped the movement in his hand and looked at him. "How can there be an unstable lie of

the fetus?"

Mason sniggered. "She had miscarried once but she didn't come clean about it. Later, her emotions

were so unstable that even several trips to the hospital couldn't help, so we couldn't rescue the

baby."

He said those words in an exceptionally indifferent manner as though this was simply a minuscule

matter to him.

I suppressed my emotions and looked at him. "So what do you plan to do now?"

I thought he would answer my question directly, but h e suddenly asked, "Does she have anything

to do with Cecilia's death?”

Smack! The spoon in my hand slipped and fell to the floor.

He narrowed his keen eyes slightly.

I evaded his gaze and said, "I'm not sure."

I was actually the one who caused Cecilia's death. Petra wanted me out of the house at the time so

it would be easier to harm me, so she asked someone to bring Cecilia from the countryside to

Whaldorf City.

If I had not left home that day in a hurry to see Cecilia, the things that followed would not have

happened.

I did not know how big of an impact Nadia's words had brought upon Cecilia because Jerome did

not tell me the details, hence I did not want to tell Mason that she was the one who caused Cecilia’s

death.

He sneered and said no more, merely staring at Munchkin. "I will not marry Nadia. Munchkin is a

member of the Lynches and he'll one day return to the Lynches."

I froze, surprised that he would say these words so straightforwardly.

After falling silent for half a minute, I did not manage t o suppress my emotions and said, "Mason,

Munchkin will not go back to the Lynches. This was Cecilia’s last wish. If you want Munchkin, I can

only say no."

Theo was also in a bad mood, staring unkindly at Mason. "Don't forget what you said. You promised

me not to take Munchkin.”

"Hah." Mason sneered. "You promised me to take care of Tiana too, but look what happened?"

Who was Tiana?

Theo's expression sank. "You know clearly why things happened that way back then. Do you really

think Cecilia and Tiana’s deaths were by accident?”
