Chapter 1236
Ezekiel struggled to move to the edge of the bed, but he was so weak, and the lower half of his body was numb like
a stick.
So he fell to the ground, wretchedly on all fours.
The wound on his right leg was bleeding, staining the white gauze. The nurse was a little annoyed. She hated this
kind of uncooperative patient the most. He was unlucky to lose a leg, yet at least he survived...
In the end, Cedrick let Eason carry Ezekiel back to bed.
Ezekiel lay on the bed, his face pale and his eyes wide open. When he saw Catelyn and Cedrick, Ezekiel suddenly
cried and laughed as if he had gone mad.
As a result, his condition worsened. Unable to breathe, he could only open his mouth wide for air.
He looked very comical.

now! I can't stand up anymore!"
It was easy to play dumb.
Catelyn pretended to shed tears as if she couldn't bear to see his miserable state. "I didn't expect someone to hit
you with a van in public. If Ced and I had not taken you to the hospital in time, you might have died, not to mention
losing a leg..."
"I..." Ezekiel's lips moved a few times. Obviously, he wanted to curse, yet his face turned red, and not a word came
out.
Cedrick pulled two chairs over and told Catelyn to sit down.
He just wanted them to finish talking quickly so that Catelyn and he could leave this ward. Cedrick thought even
looking at Ezekiel would defile his wife's eyes.
"You should be very clear about the current situation. The Mr. Denham behind you is trying to put you to death.
Only we can save you. You still intend to hide the things for Mr. Denham?" Catelyn continued.
Ezekiel looked at his residual leg. His eyes suddenly blazed with intense hatred. He gritted his teeth and said, "Okay,
I'll tell you everything you want to know! Including the things I didn't finish saying in prison..."
"Go on."
"In fact, when I was in prison, I sent people to investigate Mr. Denham because I was afraid that he would kill me at
any time. I had to get something on him, and then I found..." Ezekiel suddenly looked at Cedrick meaningfully.
Cedrick vaguely had a bad feeling. "What did you find?"
"Cedrick, do you still remember your father?" Ezekiel changed the subject.
Cedrick's expression changed slightly. "He died very early. I hardly remember anything about him."
"As far as I know, you can't find out Mr. Denham's identity because you have ignored his background."
"What do you mean? Could it be that Mr. Denham is related to my father-in-law?" Catelyn asked anxiously.
Ezekiel shook his head, pursed his lips, and hesitated for a while before telling the whole story...
"Actually, it started twenty years ago when Yuri had a crazy admirer. That woman killed Yuri and his wife after she
failed to pursue him! I happened to stumble upon the murder, which was disguised as an accident, but I was too

"I thought it was all behind me, but then, more than ten years later, a man calling himself Mr. Denham came to me.
"He said he knew what I had done to Summer and wanted me to work for him. I refused, and he threatened me,
saying that he would tell the Atherton family what I had done, which would drive me to death.
"I had no choice but to fake my death and take the opportunity to escape from Sapphire City.
"At that time I found out that you were pregnant with Cedrick's child, so I wanted to use this to protect myself. I
secretly took Ollie away and left him at the entrance of the Mason Estate, but I didn't expect... In the end, I failed to
escape from Mr. Denham!
"Mr. Denham was interested in my relationship with Cat and wanted me to use Cat to give Cedrick a blow. I knew he
was ruthless. Those who were useless to him would be killed. Thus, I tried desperately to divide you two.
"From my contact with him, he hated Cedrick, and then I thought that the woman from back then must be
connected with this, so I asked a detective to investigate her. It so happened that I received the information on the
day I was released from prison. The woman is really surnamed Denham. After the death of Cedrick's parents, she
disappeared..."
