Chapter 399
It seemed that Mr. Winters was talking to himself.
Maisie’s eyes drooped slightly as she pursed her lips. “Are you feeling better?”
“What’s the use of recovering?” Mr. Winters scoffed at himself. “Both my wife and daughter are now gone, so why am I still alive?”
Mr. Winters could not accept the reality.
In fact, no one should be able to accept this.
Maisie’s eyes drooped once again. “You should understand deep down why and how these things happened.”
Mr. Winters was startled. He then lowered his head bleakly, feeling a little ashamed. “Yes, I admit, we shouldn’t have been greedy.”
He thought of something and continued. “Actually, my wife and I were devastated when we received the news of our daughter’s death. When we went to the training camp to inquire and found out that our daughter had committed suicide, it was really hard for us to keep ourselves calm. The training camp did compensate us, saying that we should stay in the Grand Hotel of Bassburgh and wait for Wynnie’s autopsy results.
“However, a woman came to us one day.” Mr. Winters folded his fingers as if there was a heavy stone in his chest cavity, weighing him down. “She told us that you’re responsible for our daughter’s death, that you’re the one who forced her to death.
“She then provided us with your work address, and that’s how my wife and I went to find you. We were also overwhelmed by the huge amount of money, so we planned to take it for ourselves. Anyway, our daughter has died. But we didn’t expect…” He covered his face and cried, “That woman really wanted to kill us. I had been on guard from the beginning, but we didn’t escape death after all.”
He regretted it and blamed himself for everything that had taken place.
But what good would it do?
Maisie did not continue to disturb him and left the ward quietly. Nolan had also ended the phone call at that moment.
She walked up to his back. “How are things going at Mr. Goldma- Father’s side?”
