Vouchers Cadoc's eyes grew even colder . He slowly squatted down , grabbed her chin , and exerted so much force that it almost crushed her bones : " Sophie , listen carefully - from today on , I will make your life a living hell . " After saying that , he roughly pushed her away and coldly ordered the bodyguard , " Put a bag of mice in there , let her enjoy it . " Sophie's face instantly turned pale : " No ... no ! Cadoc ! You can't do this to me ! Ah- ! " Her screams were muffled by the heavy iron door . Cadoc stood at the entrance of the basement , his eyes filled with extreme gloom . He used to be so indulgent towards Sophie , now he hates her so much . What's even more hateful is himself . The snow in Chicago fell suddenly . Cadoc stood at the door of Emma's guesthouse , with a thin layer of snow falling on his black coat , his fingertips turning red from the cold , but still clutching the file bag tightly . He stared at the closed door , his Adam's apple bobbing , and finally raised his hand to knock . The door was opened . Emma stood at the door and saw him . Her expression didn't change at all . " What's up ? " Cadoc's breath caught for a moment . He thought that when he saw her again , he would have a lot to say , but when the moment arrived , he found that his throat seemed to be blocked by something , and not a single word could come out . " I ... his voice hoarse , he handed the file bag forward , " I hope you can take a look . " Emma's gaze fell on the document and she didn't respond , " What is it ? " " Sophie did everything to you , Cadoc's fingertips trembled slightly , " I only just found out that she has been framing you . These are all evidence .

" Cadoc's heart sank suddenly . He thought she would be angry , would feel wronged , and might even question why he only came now . But she just casually said - it doesn't matter anymore. " I have already punished her , he added hastily , as if eager to prove something , " and your parents , I al- ་ ་ So ... " " Cadoc , Emma interrupted him , her eyes cold , " Why do you still blame everything on others ? " He was stunned . " Are you saying you have done nothing wrong ? She stared at him , her voice soft but cutting , " Did you not condone what Sophie did to me ? " Cadoc's breath caught in his throat , his heart feeling like it had been tightly squeezed . He wanted to retort , but when the words reached his lips , he found that he couldn't say a single word. Yes , what right did he have to push all the blame onto Sophie ? It was him who chose to believe Sophie time and time again , ignoring Emma's grievances each time , even pushing her into the abyss when she needed him the most . " I ... his voice was hoarse , tinged with a hint of embarrassment , " I'm sorry . " Emma shook her head , a faint smile tugging at the corner of her lips . " No need to apologize , it's point- less to say these things now anyway . " She paused for a moment , then suddenly raised her left hand , and the diamond ring on her ring finger reflected a dazzling light under the lamp . " I was already married . " Cadoc's pupils suddenly contracted , and he was struck as if by lightning . He stated at the ring intently , and suddenly , with a buzzing sound in his head , it felt like something had collapsed .

In an instant , Cadoc's blood seemed to freeze . Emma's tone was calm to the point of cruelty : " Cadoc , we are done . Don't come and disturb me again . " After speaking , she turned and walked towards Waylon , her back resolute , without a hint of nostalgia . Cadoc stood still , watching as her figure gradually disappeared into the snow curtain . His chest felt like a piece had been hollowed out , the pain almost suffocating him . He knew that this time , he had truly lost her completely . The snow fell heavier and heavier . Cadoc didn't know how he had gotten back to the car . He sat in the driver's seat , his fingers tightly gripping the steering wheel , his knuckles turning white , the veins on the back of his hand bulging fiercely . The snow outside the car window blurred the view , just like his confused thoughts at the moment . He remembered the first time he saw Emma , she was standing quietly in the Jefferson family living room , with her head down and her eyes lowered , like a delicate marionette . He remembered the oatmeal she cooked for him , the light she left on for him , and all the grievances she endured for him . He remembered the last look she gave him - calm , indifferent , as if he was just an insignificant stranger . His heart felt like it was being slowly tortured by a blunt knife , causing him to almost gasp for breath . He suddenly punched the steering wheel , causing the horn to emit a piercing sound , which was particu- larly abrupt in the quiet snowy night . " Emma ... " He murmured her name softly , his voice hoarse and unrecognizable , But this time , no one would respond to him again .
