Chapter 1160 Unfair Nothing! There really isnât anything! Samuel went down on a knee and continued searching the edge of the corpseâs face hoping to find a flaw.
However, the face of the body was impeccable, and no flaw could be found. Just like that, a graceful man like Samuel knelt in front of the mortuary fridge with reddened eyes while tears rolled down his cheeks.
âThatâs impossible! This canât possibly be her!â The officer couldnât bring himself to watch the scene.
He thought Samuel was rational since the latter stopped Yandel from causing a scene. Seeing Samuelâs distraught look now, he finally understood the situation.
It wasnât that Samuel didnât love his wife but that he didnât believe she was dead before seeing her corpse himself. âMr. Bowers, I know you feel upset, but the dead canât be resurrected.â The young officer sighed. âIâm sorry for your loss, but Iâm sure Natalie wouldnât want you to be in pain because of her,â he consoled.
However, his words fell on deaf ears. Samuel continued to stare at that familiar yet unfamiliar face.
Why isnât your heart beating? Why are you ignoring me when Iâm right in front of you? I was wrong!
Terribly wrong! I shouldnât have let you take the risk. Nat, you can do whatever you want to me as long as youâre alive. Iâll take any punishments you give me willingly. Please wake up. Stop joking around!
âNatââ
The young officer tried to console Samuel but was ignored. Thus, he couldnât help but feel dejected.
Alas, men are bound to fall for a womanâs beauty. This man exudes an imposing aura, so he must have a high status. Seeing how he loses his demeanor and charisma for a dead lady, he is no different from any other ordinary man.
It was his duty to let Natalieâs family claim her body.
With no choice, the officer stood by Samuelâs side while the latter mourned.
After a long while, Samuel slowly stood up from the ground. Facing Natalieâs body, he said faintly, âNat, Iâll take you home.â
He sounded gentle and affectionate, as though he was speaking to a living person.
Witnessing the scene, the officer didnât think it was a frightening sight. Instead, it warmed his heart, yet he felt helpless.
Iâm not sure if this lady trafficked psychotropic drugs in Loang, but it is a pity she lost her life just like that.
Samuel took Natalieâs body with him after completing the procedures.
After settling down Yandel, Billy met up with Samuel.
When he found out that Samuel decided to take Natalieâs body home, he was taken aback. âMrs.
Bowers has already passed away, Mr. Bowers. Her body was frozen in the mortuary fridge. If we bring her home now, Iâm afraid that her body willââ
Decay even quickly.
Billy didnât dare to continue what he intended to say.
He knew Natalieâs body was Samuelâs last hope and was scared Samuel would collapse in despair if her body decayed quickly. Billy could never imagine how Samuel would react.
âMr. Bowers, I think itâs best if we bring Mrs. Bowers to the funeral home directly,â Billy said after plucking up enough courage.
âThatâs enough.â
âMr. Bowersââ
âBilly, what you are worried about will not happen.â With tears in his eyes, Samuel smiled wryly. âIâm not insane. I only want to take her home and get her a change of clothes.â
Billyâs expression turned grim as he nodded. Then, he sent Samuel and Natalieâs body home.
It was Emma who opened the door.
She covered her mouth in shock when she saw Samuel carrying something like a body bag in his arms.
âThisââ
Emma didnât know what was inside, but she could vaguely guess what it was when she saw the shape of the body bag.
âItâs her.â Samuel had no intention of hiding the truth.
Having understood Samuelâs words, Emma could not conceal the pain on her face as she shed tears in grief. âHow can this be? What has the world come to? This is unfairââ
