“We have done nothing.” She told the truth.
Nicola apparently relieved but saw Arthur’s face was still angry and gloomy, he said quickly. " Yes. Brother, my sister-in-law just got out of prison. I just came by to see her."
Come to see her? See her in bed?
That was a lame excuse.
“But if you come later, we have done everything you can imagine.” She added calmly.
“...”
The mood in the bedroom was heavy. Arthur clutched his long fingers on the wheelchair and stared at the calm face of Jocelyn. He did not expect that the woman could tell the truth easily.
Nicola's face suddenly turned pale and almost jumped up. "What are you talking about?"
“Isn’t it? Didn’t you just say your brother has been paralyzed so you should do it for him? And you said that as long as I let you do, you will treat me well. It is only a few minutes ago, do you regret now?”
Jocelyn showed him a face of grievances and deliberately accentuated the word “paralyze”,which undoubtedly made the situation even worse.
“You... you...you…" Nicola stammered. He dared not to look at Arthur’s face again, as if he was afraid that he would swallow him alive.
He had no idea that Jocelyn Turner, a gentler and virtuous woman, would directly confess to an affair in the presence of Arthur!
This Jocelyn Turner who just released from prison, was a total psycho!
“My brother, I..." Nicola even wanted to cry. "I admit that I did, but I know that sister-in-law isn’t in that physical condition. So we didn’t…"
She had never seen that someone voluntarily confessed anything so quickly. She knew at once that Nicola was a bully, who just dared to bully someone weak.
He saw her timid. That was why he chose Jocelyn.
