Chapter 836
So, the reason why Natalie hadmitted suicide was because she had been humiliated multiple times and disfigured.
No wonder Josiah had tried to destroy me with sulphuric acid. He didn''t care to hurt me in the same way. He just wanted me to
die.
"There was no enmity between your family and those people though. Why were they so ruthless?" Even if there was enmity,
there was no reason for them to be so vicious.
He shook his head and sighed, "Jarold City was chaotic back in those days. There were many innocent girls who suffered the
same fate as Natalie. Pedro was powerful, and he wanted to cleanse himself of his bad reputation, so he kicked most of his gang
members out. These people were trying to discredit the Moore Family, so when they learned that the daughter whom Pedro had
lost for many years was also a girl in her teens, they specifically targeted those girls who walked alone at night. Their methods
were extremely cruel."
Such a thing was just outrageous. | felt extreme anger in an instant, "How could they do this?"
"It''s also precisely because of this incident that Pedro started to look for his daughter in a much more low- profile manner. He
quietly inquired about her whereabouts and no longer openly searched for her."
| roughly understood the situation. So, Josiah had attributed Natalie''s death to Hendrix not answering the phone, which resulted
in him not being able to save Natalie in time.
Any woman who suffered such humiliation, even if she had managed to survive, would not have the courage to continue living,
especially since she had been disfigured.
It was also because of that that Natalie had eventually chosen tomit suicide. For Natalie, it was a relief and a means of
escape.
However, to Josiah and Hendrix, it would be an adversity that they would never be able to ovee in their entire lives.
We fell silent on our way back. When we returned to the hospital, Hendrix was examined by the doctor, and there were no
problems with him.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!
Pedro had already booked tickets back to Jarold City. We were probably going back soon, so Valerie was overjoyed. She cooked
and brought a lot of delicious food to the hospital.
In the next few days, Pedro and Valerie mostly ate with us in the hospital.
ording to Valerie, the food would taste more delicious when we were eating with more people.
Perhaps what she said was true. | ate more than | usually did in the past few days. Somehow, | felt as if | had gained weight.
While eating, Valerie spoke, "New Year''s Eve is on the day after tomorrow, and I''ve already asked Heather to get all the
ingredients ready. I''ve heard that the people in Hovell like to eat pulled pork and mustard greens with ham for New Year''s Eve.
Heather is really good at making those dishes."
As she spoke of that, she looked at Hendrix with a smile on her face and asked, "Mr. Roberts, what are the most famous foods in
Ucrebury?"
Hendrix paused for a moment. Perhaps because he had met Josiah in the day, he was not in a stable mood and he kept silent
the entire time.
He was absent- minded. It seemed that he had failed to pay attention to any of Valerie''s words at all.

Valerie smiled awkwardly and said, "Mr. Roberts, is there any special way people celebrate New
Year''s in Ucrebury?"
He shook his head and said faintly, "Nothing special. Everything goes on as usual.”
Valerie was stunned and didn''t continue to ask.
Pedro added some food to Valerie''s bowl, indicating to her to eat quietly.
