Upon seeing Elisa enter the room, Baxter lowered his head in guilt, not daring to meet her gaze.
"Please lift your head," Elisa commanded. Without hesitation, Baxter raised his head to look at her. He felt lost, overwhelmed by guilt and regret.
Elisa didn't want to dwell too much on the incident.
The police would handle the investigation and provide guidance when the time came. Those were not the most pressing matters at the moment.
What she wanted to know most at that moment was the identity of the woman in red.
First, Elisa quickly explained the current situation.
"The police have divided into two teams, one heading to the hospital and the other to the primary school, to ensure the safety of your wife and daughter. Now, I need you to answer my questions truthfully. Please think carefully before responding and avoid omitting or concealing any information. This is crucial to me."
Elisa furrowed her beautiful eyebrows. "If possible, I will negotiate a settlement with you, so the consequences you'll have to face won't be so severe. I will also cover all the subsequent treatment costs for your wife. Do you understand?"
Baxter was surprised, and even Ernest was taken aback as he stared at Elisa.
Knowing that she had money was one thing, but her willingness to use it to help others was a completely different matter.
After all, there were plenty of wealthy people in the world who were stingy.
"Is... is that true?" Baxter asked, disbelief evident on his face. He thought he must be hearing things.
Elisa nodded solemnly, reiterating, "As long as you confess everything, regardless of whether the information is helpful or not, I will fulfill what I just said. So, consider it carefully."
