Baron was raged.
Now, he was as near certain as can be that Sherry and Marry got somehting to do with Terry’s car crash.
However, he had no evidence.
What if Sherry did trap Terry in? How should he cope with it?
He would, of course, punish her, but he worried that Tracy couldn’t accept the truth.
What a cruel truth to accept for anyone that her mother should try to kill her father.
“Mr. Owen, do you have any clue?”
Kris asked carefully, for he felt that Baron was in a bad mood after the call.
“Nothing!” said Baron flatly.
Baron wasn’t delighted, even though he got a new useful clue.
And he even hesitated to have further investigation.
In the meantime, in the Cona Citizen Hospital.
There were only Sherry and Terry in the VIP patient room.
To make a good impression on her daughter, Sherry gave Terry meticulous care on those days right after his surgery, including doing manicures, cleaning his body, and changing diapers.
But after she convinced Tracy and Yuri not to come in the daytime, she was totally changed.
As for diapers, she wouldn’t change it for him until Tracy or Yuri came.
“You are really lucky. How come you’re still alive after such a severe hit?”
“But it doesn’t matter, because you get half of your life left, you can do nothing to stop me to get back to the Peak Hotel.”
“The next one will be Baron Owen, after he dies, the whole Peak Hotel will be mine!”
Sherry appeared a vicious look, goggling at Terry. She just couldn’t stand him anymore.
Abruptly, she leaned forward, slapped violently on Terry’s face, and said indignantly, “Don’t you want to divorce with me?”
And she slapped one more time, “Aren’t you afraid that I take away the villa?”
“How dare you fight against me?”
“This is the consequence! And you have to suffer it for the rest of your life. You are no threat to me now!”
Sherry kept slapping his face till it was red and swollen.
She beat him up more than that. There were numerous bruises on his body that were made by her.
These days, when she stayed with Terry alone, she would hit him violently for a time every day.
She felt excited by doing it.
She understood very well where and when she should hit to avoid being found out.
The time was at the noon.
Basically, Tracy and Yuri wouldn’t show up at noon, and it was the perfect time to abuse him.
After abusing Terry, she lay down on the nursing bed, turned on the TV, watched her favorite show, and burst out laughter now and then.
Whose wife would do things like this when her husband remained in a coma?
She didn’t notice that Terry, who was lying down stilly on the bed, moved his eyelids and finger very slightly.
After a long time, Sherry fell asleep, and the TV was still on.
These days, she felt freer and happier staying in the hospital than staying in her rental house.
Every day, Tracy or Yuri would bring some delicious food for Sherry after work.
At this moment, the door was opened.
Sherry was awoken by the noise of the door, and then she sat up quickly.
At the sight of Baron, she felt relief, and said in displeasure, “Why do you come here?”
