Liam was dumbfounded. He asked with a frown, "Do you think I did it?"
Abigail was not sure. She just wished Liam was not involved in it.
She looked straight into his eyes, determined to get his answer.
Seeing her nervous face, Liam laughed and said slowly and clearly, "I did send people to look for him but his death has nothing to do with me."
"Really?"
Liam nodded.
Abigail was relieved to hear that.
"I believe you," she said.
Liam reached out and pinched her chin in a flirty and bossy way. Staring at her with the corners of his mouth curled up, he said, "You're worried about me. Don't worry. I'm a good citizen who abides by the law."
Abigail nodded.
That was good.
Liam did not know that those words would backfire on him.
He'd pay for it one day.
They had a busy morning and went to the hospital after lunch.
Although Senior Mrs. Jones showed no sign of waking up, Liam and Abigail went to see her every day.
Robert and Mrs. Jones took turns to take care of Senior Mrs. Jones in the hospital.
When they arrived, Robert was there.
"Dad," Liam called.
"Hi, Mr. Jones," Abigail greeted.
"Hi."
