Love's Bitter Edge (Eva and Leonard) novel Chapter 293

Chapter 293 Save Our Baby 

My condition was not too bad. I wanted to stay one more day before discharging, but Alisa suddenly visited. 

She arrived in a hurry and looked weary. Then, she looked up and down at me. 

“Eva, are you having a streak of bad luck this 

year?” 

I silently agreed with the familiar statement. 

No wonder she was with Julian. It turned out that birds of the same feather did flock together. 

“Alisa, the police are looking into this. It’s not a coincidence.” 

I helplessly looked at her. She looked slightly displeased. 

“Julian and I are planning to pray for you–your fortune has really hit rock bottom.” 

“Holy Covenant Chapel?” 

I felt even more helpless. 

The lovebirds just wanted to pray for blessings for their relationship, so they used me as an 

excuse. 

Nothing could have stopped them. 

Embarrassed, she pinched my face. “He told you, huh? We’re doing this for your good. Aren’t you about to get a divorce from Leonard? There will always be another relationship, right? You have to trust Julian. He is a miracle worker who can bring the dead back to life.” 

“Stop!” I quickly stopped her from boasting about her boyfriend because Penelope was at the 

ward’s entrance. 

She had earlier told me that she would talk to me in person once she had the results of the investigation. 

Penelope only entered when she noticed I was looking at her. It turned out she had received the investigation results. 

“Someone had tampered with the brakes. However, the car is very damaged, so it’s difficult to investigate further. We’ve only retrieved half a fingerprint. Plus, we’re unsure if this was the person who tampered with the brakes.” 

She seemed deflated. 

“We’ve investigated the surveillance too. There’s nothing wrong with the personnel at 45 Workshop. Sigh.” 

“It’s okay. Perhaps it’s a mere coincidence.”

I comforted her, but Penelope disagreed. 

“My mentor said something is off with this case. Plus, the execution was flawless. However, it doesn’t seem like the person wanted you dead.” 

However, I didn’t think so. 

If the person didn’t want us dead, he would have sabotaged the car from the beginning. 

The brakes malfunctioned. What if the car collided with other vehicles or we had a terrible 

accident? 

“So, the police had no idea what was happening?” 

Leonard heard the sentence when he entered. 

Penelope and Alisa looked at him like their worst enemy was approaching them. 

He seemed not to have noticed them. He walked toward my bedside and grabbed my hand. 

“How are you feeling today? Better?” 

I heard Alisa click her tongue in disdain and seemed to have felt her rolling her eyes. 

Penelope was expressionless, but the corners of her lips pursed, seemingly feeling unwelcoming toward Leonard’s arrival. 

“I’m fine.” 

‘I retracted my hand seamlessly, wanting to shoo Leonard away. 

He seemed to have noticed how unwelcoming I was and looked at me uneasily. 

“What do you think about the accident?”
