Chapter 1015 Meeting Ann

Ashton frowned slightly, but he didn't say anything.

Ann showing up here was rather a surprise to me. I didn't plan to meet her, but since she came to me, I had no choice but to let her in.

I was slightly taken aback at meeting her this time. She had been visiting me at the hospital, but I didn't really pay attention to her. Now that she was here in front of me, I collected my thoughts and looked at her closely.

How should I phrase this?

She was rather different from the first time I saw her in the cattle sheds. At that time, her eyes were filled with timidness and she looked dazed. However, this time, it seemed her timidness was replaced by determination.

I looked at her and stayed silent for a while before asking, “What's the matter?”

She lifted her gaze at Ashton, and her eyes flickered. I was all too familiar with her gaze. The girl must be stunned to see the handsome man. I knew how attractive Ashton was, so I didn't bother to stop her.

Ann turned to me and pondered for a while. “Ms. Stovall, thank you for saving my life. I'll remember what you did for me, and I'll repay your kindness.’’

I pursed my lips and waited for her to continue.

As expected, she fell silent for a while before continuing, “Ms. Stovall, I'm grateful to you. I know your daughter is waiting for surgery, and I heard you adopted my sister. I hope you can treat her well and hopefully she can help your daughter.”

I frowned as she was beating around the bush. Pursing my lips. I urged, “Stop wasting time and get to the point."

She froze and took a deep breath before kneeling down on the floor. “Ms. Stovall, I know I shouldn't look for you, but I don't have a choice. I don't know who I should find except you."

I furrowed my brows. “Get up. I cannot accept your kneel.” To be honest, most people disliked people kneeling down in front of them and begged them for something. I was not one of those lunatics who enjoyed being worshiped by others.

She got up from the floor and said. “Ever since Mr. Fuller cleared the Imperial Hotel, my friend was taken away. I figured he might be sold off, so I went to the police, but they couldn't do anything about it. He had been in the Imperial Hotel for many years, so there's no way they can't find him.”

Listening to her vague words, I furrowed my brows slightly in bewilderment. “Aren't you always living in a village? How do you get yourself a friend here so quickly? Didn't you kill Fritz? I think you misunderstood what I meant. Back then, I saved you because I have some questions to ask you. Fritz's body is still in the Wolfsen residence, so your sister could still be tortured. Ann, I don't think I'll help a murderer like you for a second time."

The girl was stunned and was at a loss as she looked at me.

Looking at her, I said, “Tell me. How did you kill Fritz and escape? Plus, how did you go to work at the Imperial Hotel?"

I wasn't that kind-hearted as she thought I was. Back then, I saved her because I had some questions to ask her. Seeing how she was humiliated by Dillan, I couldn't help but pity her. However, I paid the price of losing my baby. I could only blame myself for being foolish.
