Seeing how no one responded, Alice got even bolder.
She furrowed her brows and looked at Andy. “Uncle Andy, where is Ben?“
Andy lifted his head. He looked at her. His lips quivered but he could not find his words.
Joshua furrowed his brows and looked at Alice. His voice was cold. “Alice, stop talking.“
Only then did Alice exercise a little restraint. “I’m only concerned. After all, such a huge thing happened to Gwen, it’s not right that Ben is not here.“
Luna leaned back on the chair. Her mind kept replaying the scene where she was drinking with Gwen the night before.
From the beginning, Luna was the one that offended the Walter family. She was the one who made Hailey jump off the building and the one who aggravated Old Mr. Walter.
Why did they want to do that to Gwen then? Gwen did not even do anything.
She did not even mention the Walter family’s name during the press conference.
Even if she was Gwen’s friend, they did not have to capture her and treat her that way, right?
Luna could not figure it out. She was baffled.
After a long time, the door of the emergency room was opened.
Gwen, who was covered in injuries, was pushed out by the doctors.
“She is not in any danger anymore. It’s basically superficial injuries. There are no internal injuries of the organs or tendons.“
The doctor adjusted his spectacles. “But, she suffered a concussion as a result of a blow to the brain. She might lose some of her most recent memories.“
Luna bit her lips and immediately flung herself by the side of Gwen’s bed.
Gwen was lying on the bed. The blood has been cleaned off her face. However, the bruises and a swollen, red handprint could be seen clearly.
Luna bit her lips while holding back the pain that churned through her heart. She reached out and pried open Gwen’s sleeve and collar.
As expected.
Her arm, neck, and chest were covered in large patches of bruises and strangle marks.
