Chapter 87 

“I just think it’s too much of a coincidence. Why is it always on your birthday? It’s all my fault. I should have warned you not to go out yesterday… 

Hackett looked impatient. “This has nothing to do with you. Don’t take responsibility for everything.” 

“But… I’m afraid that it’s really my brother who is bugging you. Could he have mistaken you for bullying me because he saw me commit suicide recently, so…” 

Cheryl deliberately talked about her brother, Abbot, to make them think that all of this was retribution and that Abbot’s vengeful spirit was demanding his life. 

As soon as Cheryl mentioned the name, the ward fell into dead silence. 

The annoyed Barron suddenly turned pale. No one knew what he was thinking, but his gaze was complicated. 

The man on the bed suddenly sneered. “In other words, Abbot’s ghost is taking revenge on me? Then why didn’t he kill me yesterday? That’s an excellent opportunity. If I die there, it’ll take me a few days for my body to be discovered.” 

He already hated the theory of retribution. He hated that the word retribution would involuntarily come to mind no matter what happened. 

“Brother knows that I like you. He won’t!” Cheryl was very confident. 

Hackett was at a loss for words. 

Barron suddenly stood up with his walking stick and said, “I’ll go find the master to read your fortune again. You should recuperate in the hospital. I’ll come and visit you tonight.” 

With that, Barron walked out of the ward with the help of his walking stick. 

In the past, Barron was not so superstitious. However, since his son died tragically and his daughter–in–law went crazy, he began to believe in these things frantically. He went everywhere to ask for a lucky necklace and prayed for Hackett’s safety 

Looking at his grandfather’s old back, Hackett’s handsome face turned cold. He glanced at Cheryl and said, “You should go out too. I want to rest.” 

With that, he lay back on the bed, not wanting to look at Cheryl again. 

“Hackett, you should rest. I’ll come and visit 

you 

tomorrow.” 

Cheryl looked at his cold attitude and clenched her fists, but she could only endure it. 

The man did not respond. Instead, he closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep. 

Cheryl was furious, but she had no choice but to turn around and leave the ward. 

It didn’t matter. She could take it slow. She wasn’t in a hurry. Besides, she knew Hackett’s temper. It was impossible to change his decision in an instant. 

Cheryl walked out of the hospital and received a call. She deliberately observed that no one was around and 1ked for an empty corner to answer the call. 

Unexpectedly, Valeria happened to arrive at the hospital and passed by her. 

After sending her son to kindergarten, Valeria arrived at the hospital. She had just parked the car and was about to enter the entrance of the inpatient department.

Chapter 87 

When she passed by the corridor, she saw a woman on the phone. That woman looked very familiar. After taking a few more glances, she realized that it was Cheryl. 

Valeria had initially planned to walk over like this. There was nothing much to say between the two of them anyway. She did not have to pretend to greet her. 

However, when she quickly passed by Cheryl, she heard such a strange conversation… 

“Have you cleaned all the traces? Will the police find out about me?” 

“No, don’t worry. I handled it very cleanly. No matter how the police investigate, they will only find that the brakes failed. They won’t find out that someone 

Caused it.” 

The corners of Cheryl’s mouth curled up. “That’s good. Leave before the police arrive. There are no surveillance videos on that road.” 

“I know that.” 

Valeria could not hear what was said on the other end of the call She only heard Cheryl say something about the police and surveillance videos… 

Then, she saw Cheryl leave the hospital. 

Looking at Cheryl leaving, she couldn’t help but mutter to herself, “What exactly does her words mean…- 

Police and surveillance video. These keywords seemed to have nothing to do with Cheryl. It felt like she was hiding something. 

Valeria could not figure it out for a moment. She could only go to the ward to see how Hackett was doing. 

Outside the ward, Tyler stood up when he saw her. “Ms. Sharp, you’re here.” 

“Yes. I’ll go in and visit him.” 

Valeria knocked on the ward door, but there was no response from the man inside. She simply pushed open the door. 

When she entered the ward, she saw the 

lying on the bed with his back facing her. He seemed to be asleep. 

Suddenly, the man’s cold voice sounded. “Get out.” 

She was shocked as she thought he had fallen asleep. 

Valeria said, “So, you’re not asleep.” 

Upon hearing that, Hackett’s cold expression disappeared. He turned to look at her, and a glint appeared in his dark eyes. 

But the man’s face darkened again. “What took you so long?” 

“It’s good enough that I’m here, but you think I’m late? Huh… It seems that my tolerance I’ve spoiled you.” 

Valeria was speechless. He even said that he wanted to change his temper. That was impossible.

Valeria walked over. She originally wanted to pour a glass of water for the man to drink because the doctor had instructed him only to drink water and not eat. 

However, when she saw the half–empty glass of water on the cabinet beside her, she remembered that she had bumped into Cheryl who was on the phone outside just now. She understood what was going on. 

Valeria sat on the chair, “I wanted 

to 

o get you a glas 

but it seems like Cheryl has already fed you water. I’ll save
