‘What?” Xavier’s voice wavered a bit.

‘Thanks for standing up for me in front of Teresa and making sure I didn’t look bad in front of Linda,” Isabella said in the softest one, uttering the politest words. Even though it was a thank–you, it made Xavier’s insides feel even more jumbled.

‘Don’t worry about it,” Xavier mumbled. He felt a tightness in his chest, and all the words he wanted to say got stuck. In the end, he could only spit out those cold words.

sabella stole a glance at him. Just as she thought, as soon as they left the hospital, he went back to being his usual self. For a split second, she had actually believed that Xavier really cared.

But then she thought about it, and it kind of made sense. Teresa represented the Moore family and the Allen family. Xavier would never let anyone control him. As long as they were still married, they were a team. No matter how cold Xavier was, he wasn’t dumb.

As for Linda, a woman who had been dumped shouldn’t be hanging around at a time like this. And… the fact that Linda had been able to stay close to Noah still rubbed Isabella the wrong way.

‘Noah didn’t hurt himself,” Isabella said after a moment of thought.

(avier took a long time to respond. “Yeah.”

The man’s reaction seemed to show that he already knew and had zero interest in talking about it more.

‘You knew?” Isabella looked at him and pressed further.

(avier just said another “Yeah.” He kept his eyes fixed on the road ahead, his face looking focused but also kind of distant. “It was inda.”

When Noah had the accident, Xavier hadn’t figured it out right away. But the moment he saw Isabella, he understood. There was only one person who would hurt Noah, and that was Linda.

‘Then why…” Isabella started, “Why didn’t you hold Linda accountable?”

(avier wasn’t the kind of guy who shied away from a fight or used soft–handed methods. He wouldn’t just turn a blind eye because Noah lied…

Otherwise, after Tanner died, he wouldn’t have gone after the Whitman family and Sander non–stop!

‘Because there’s no proof,” Xavier said casually, as if it was a plain fact.

t was true. There was no surveillance footage, no witnesses, and Noah had taken all the blame. When Isabella had brought up the timing of the wound earlier, she had actually glanced at Harry and was just trying to scare Linda and the others.

Determining the exact time a wound was made was really hard, and even if you knew the general time, it was impossible to be precise… She just wanted to break down that young caregiver’s weak mental state so that Linda would make a mistake and give. herself away.

“Is it because there’s no proof, or because you just can’t bear to hurt Linda?” Isabella couldn’t accept it.

Xavier had cut things off with Linda so firmly right in front of her… but in reality, was he still protecting her?

Noah was so important to Xavier, yet he wasn’t holding Linda responsible. But back then, when she had been set up and made a mistake, he had almost wanted to kill her…

Suddenly, Xavier hit the brakes. The traffic at the hospital entrance was bumper–to–bumper.

“Her life or death doesn’t matter to me,” Xavier said in a very low tone. His voice was deep and rough but carried a lot of weight, and it sounded like the truth. “It’s just…”

It was just that he owed her one. Five years ago, that night, the accident… he couldn’t remember anything that had happened… But the other woman had come forward, saying she was pregnant and refusing to have an abortion.

To handle the situation quietly, he had been putting a lot of pressure on the Allen family at that time. The Allen family, wanting their daughter to keep the baby, had almost taken the matter to Stanley.

But in the end, Linda had used having an abortion as a bargaining chip to get the right to stay by Xavier’s side.

Now, their mess was over. But the debt from the past still made Xavier give Linda a tiny bit of leeway in private. However, this time she had crossed his line, and it was going to be the very last time.

Isabella waited for Xavier to explain further, but the man fell silent. Xavier didn’t want to, and couldn’t, lie to Isabella.
