Chapter 1580
When she came out, Griffon, Preston, Taya, and Harper were standing outside the door, looking at her as if waiting for her response.
Stella clenched her fists and said firmly, “I was the one who shot him. Of course, I won’t go see him one last time.”
After saying that, she walked past the four of them and quickly entered the hospital room, sitting by Henry’s bedside, waiting for him to wake up…
The local police officer who received the case asked Griffon, “What did she just say?”
Griffon’s cold eyes, as if covered in frost, glanced at the police officer, who was intimidated by this look and didn’t dare to ask any more.
Taya, who slowly recovered from the shock, looked through the glass of the hospital room at Stella, who seemed calm but was actually in a panic. Stella must have been pushed to the extreme to shoot the person she once deeply loved, right?
She had thought that Stella and Eric would be entangled in hatred for their whole lives, but she didn’t expect that their ultimate
ending would be paying with their lives to end it.
She remembered the look Eric used to give Stella, possessive,
paranoid, deranged, and crazy. Underneath these emotions, there was intense and passionate love.
Eric loved Stella, but the love he gave was too extreme. However, whether this ending was good or bad, nobody knew…
Harper wasn’t very sensitive when it came to emotions, so it was hard for her to tell if Stella still loved Eric or not. She just felt that Stella right now seemed to be trembling all over…
After standing still for a moment, she walked into the hospital room and placed her hand on Stella’s shoulder, giving her a little strength.
Preston didn’t have much of a feeling about whether Eric was alive or dead. The only regret he had was that Eric turned out to be a computer genius and was gone just like that, which was a bit of a shame.
Before the police arrived at the scene, Griffon’s bodyguard called again, “Alpha, I just wanted to let you know that before Eric died, he wrote a will with blood on the ground. He also held a gun in his hand, and from his posture, it seemed like he wanted to make it look like suicide…”
After hearing this, Griffon immediately realized Eric’s intentions and quickly instructed the bodyguard, “Get rid of any traces of Stella and Henry ever being here.”
Even if it was self-defense, there would still be consequences. Since Eric wanted to protect Stella, it was as he wished to protect her even after his death.
The bodyguard replied and quickly hung up the phone. Before the police arrived, he cleaned up all the evidence, even wiping away the fingerprints on the gun.
After doing all this, the bodyguard put the gun back in Eric’s hand and then raised his gloved hand, waving it at the others before swiftly leaving the scene.
Griffon stared at Stella in the hospital room and hesitated for a moment before telling her about the will and the staged suicide left by Eric. As for whether she wanted to go see Eric or not, it was her own choice.
After being stunned for a while, Stella looked up and asked Griffon, “What did he write?”
Griffon shook his head, “I didn’t ask, I don’t know.”
Stella’s clenched fists tightened uncontrollably in her hands.
Once the scene was secured, the body would be taken away by the police, and she would never see Eric again. Well, that was for the best, wasn’t it? After all, he deserved it, right?
If he hadn’t severed Henry’s tendons, hadn’t raped her in front of
Henry, how could she have shot him? He brought it upon himself, it had nothing to do with her. Why should she go see him one last time? Why, on what grounds?
Stella weakly raised her hands, burying them in her hair, and her lowered chin hit the edge of the hospital bed, causing a sharp pain. But she didn’t even notice…
Strangely, she could hear the ticking of the clock in her ears. Tick tock, as if telling her that if she waited a little longer, it would be too late, it would never come again…
When the ticking reached the last stroke, Stella suddenly sat up and, at lightning speed, rushed out of the hospital room…
