Chapter 843 Mourning
It was such a happy dream but Veronica woke up crying.
Her face was covered with tears and she desperately tried to wipe it.
How she wanted everything to be a dream, how she wished that the person who died was herself.
She didn't want Toby Cage to die.
Where was Toby now? Did Eden already know?
Was he planned to take Toby to a place she would never know?
She didn't know how long she had been lying in bed. She was in a daze and it felt like a day or two has passed.
She was going to see Toby no matter what.
Veronica got out of bed, she was devastated by crying too much. There was a distending pain in her head and tightness in her chest.
Veronica pushed the door open, lowered her head, stuffed her feet into her slippers, and stood up.
She walked past Nick, entered the living room, picked up her cell phone and bag, turned around, and was about to leave.
Nick grabbed her by the wrist and said, "Eat first. I'll take you there."
Veronica ripped off the hand that was holding her wrist. For her, it was torture that Nick touched her hand!
"I'm going to find Toby. Will you see me off, too?" Veronica looked at him coldly, as if she was looking at a stranger or someone she hated.
"After dinner, I'll see you off." Nick agreed.
Veronica smiled and a teardrop fell. "Why are you so generous all of a sudden? That's right, he's dead now so you don't worry about what I'm going to do with him."
The muscle on Nick's face tightened, he grabbed her hand and sat her down at the table. "Eat."
Veronica sat upright, she looked at the rich food prepared in front of her. The main food was liquid base because she had not eaten for two days.
But she had no appetite!
"Don't make me eat." Veronica bowed her head and her voice trembled.
"Today is the day of Toby's funeral. Don't you want to go?" Nick asked.
Veronica raised her eyes, tears flashed in her eyes, and was about to fall at any moment.
Nick's threat was just right, eat or she won't go.
Veronica was like a trapped doll, she was unable to make decisions and could not even go to see Toby.
She wondered why she lived like this.
Veronica dully picked up the spoon, scooped up the liquid food from the bowl, and started eating.
She believed that even if she didn't have to see Toby that day, there would be another way for Nick's cage to force her to eat, he was really cruel!
For Nick, as long as she was alive, the process was not important, all he wanted was the result.
When Nick Cage saw that she was willing to eat, he relaxed his nerves and ate with her.
In the graveyard, in front of the newly erected monument stood mourners, family members, and friends dressed in black.
Eden, Kevin, Chloe, John, and Suzanne were present at the ceremony.
The one who Toby cared for the most, Veronica Parker, could only hide in the distance and watch silently.
The tears in her eyes were like a vessel full of water, which would overflow at any moment.
Was Toby really lying in the coffin? Were they really separated forever?
In the morning, she dreamt that he helped her with her homework and teased her.
Why.
Veronica's body shook, Nick feebly held her waist and she immediately pushed him aside, "Don't touch me!"
Nick raised his eyebrows and looked at her with sharp black eyes. "Let's go," he said with a stoic look on his face.
"I'm not going." Veronica stepped back, "Don't come near me."
The news on this side attracted the attention of the persons opposite them.
