Exposing the Charade of Deep Affection (PDF) novel Chapter 272

Chapter 272 Tell Me 

For a moment, I didn’t react. I hesitated for a while before I belatedly noticed that my hands and feet were slightly swollen. It wasn’t very serious, but if you looked closely, you could still see it. 

Was this person so meticulous? 

You could tell that I had been starved and frozen in the past. 

Looking at him, I smiled and said, “You’re really observant, but it was just a minor issue, it’s already resolved.” 

indeed had no intention of discussing this matter with him, to be precise, I had no intention of discussing it with anyone. 

After speaking, I was about to tidy up and leave the hospital, but Walter seemed determined, holding me down on the bed and saying, “Tell me, who did this?” 

Seeing his serious and earnest expression, I was taken aback and said, “No…” 

“Tell me!” 

His voice was so deep that it was frightening. I was stunned, looking at him a bit scared. 

Seeing that I was frightened, he lowered his head with a hint of guilt, retracted his full-faced anger, softened a bit before looking at me, his voice softened a bit and said, “When did you start to enjoy being wronged so much? The old Tabatha would never tolerate any injustice.”

Uh, this evaluation! 

I was a bit speechless, paused for a moment and said, “Captain Lucas took good care of me…” 

“Thud, thud!” The door outside was knocked. 

Walter frowned, but still opened his mouth and said, “What’s the matter?” 

The one who pushed the door open was Roy, he looked a bit off-color. He glanced at me, seemed to be on the verge of saying something, then finally said, “Mr. Hinton, something’s happened.” 

Walter didn’t look at him, his dark eyes only fell on my swollen fingers, his voice low, “Just say it, what’s the matter?” 

Roy hesitated for a few seconds, then said, “Something happened at Captain Lucas’s house.” 

Something happened? 

Walter and I turned our gaze to him at the same time. Walter’s eyes slightly deepened, “What’s wrong?” 

Roy paused and said, “Half an hour ago, Captain Lucas’s house caught fire. In her panic to escape, Captain Lucas’s wife jumped from the building.” 

Wasn’t Captain Lucas’s wife Hilda? 

How… 

I was stunned for a moment, unable to react immediately. 

Walter frowned slightly and asked, “How is the person doing?” 

Roy, “The floor wasn’t very high. When the rescue team arrived, the person was still breathing. They had just been taken to the hospital and put in the emergency room.” 

Walter nodded, “I understand.” 

After Roy finished speaking, he left. 

I remained silent, feeling strange inside. Wasn’t Hilda a police officer? How could she have encountered a fire and chosen to save herself by jumping off a building? 

Seeing that I was silent, Walter asked, “What are you thinking about?” 

I shook my head, looking at him and said, “It’s getting late, you should go home, I’m fine now.” 

The divorce announcement had already been made, there was no need to play the role of a couple anymore. Indeed, there was no need for him to stay here any longer. 

He didn’t move, just said, “I will look into the matter at the police station.” 

I was taken aback, not expecting this person to persist, I couldn’t help but say, “No…” 

“Mr. Hinton doesn’t need to check anymore.” A pleasant voice suddenly came from outside. It was Daniel, his face severely injured and bandaged. It was unclear whether his leg was also injured. At that moment, it was Sebastian who was pushing him in.
