A small quarrel ended sweetly.
Proposing a breakup was nothing more than acting on impulse. The two people, who had just fallen in love, were in an intensely affectionate phase. Especially after their first intimate encounter, it was like an addiction they couldn’t shake off.
In his thirty years of life, Evander Lancaster was moved for the first ti. Regardless of his family’s objections, he would not waver; at least now, he wanted to spend his life with Sophia Hamilton.
Evander Lancaster drove Sophia Hamilton back to the hospital, because Nathan Moore was staying there, so he treated the hospital as his ho to easily handle any sudden situations.
...
A famous hospital in the United States.
Nicholas Croft sat by the bedside, gently holding Sophie Foster’s hands. Looking at his wife sleeping on the hospital bed, the furrows in his brows did not relax.
This car accident severely injured his Lara. The baby was lost, an arm was fractured, and her cheek... suffered significant damage.
Although surgery had been perford, the doctor said... because the injury wasn’t treated in ti, so facial wounds had beco ulcerated. Even after healing, they would leave noticeable scars...
The doctor put it mildly, but Nicholas Croft understood in his heart that his Lara was disfigured.
He lifted a large hand and gently brushed it over the intact half of Sophie Foster’s cheek, his thin lips moved and the sound that ca out was hoarse like sandpaper.
"Lara... I failed to protect you..."
Hannah Hargrave said she happened to pass by when Lara had the accident...
He reviewed the surveillance footage from that day several tis but didn’t see her usual car. However, i said that when the dical personnel put Lara in the ambulance, Hannah Hargrave was already inside. If that’s the case, it could only an one thing: she knew Lara would have an accident and had arranged for the ambulance in advance, waiting to take his Lara away...
If so, then she couldn’t be unrelated to this accident!
Nicholas sent Assistant Tang to the detention center to see the perpetrator. The man claid he had argued with his wife, was in a bad mood, drank, and then drove out to unwind. As for the collision, it wasn’t intentional...
When Assistant Tang asked if soone instructed him, offering double compensation if he would testify, the perpetrator firmly denied it, insisting that hitting soone was purely accidental. He confused the accelerator for the brake when he saw a person standing by the roadside.
Later, Assistant Tang approached the perpetrator’s family, trying to get them to talk, but the perpetrator’s wife seed unaware. She was emotional, crying and cursing her husband, saying he not only ruined himself but also destroyed another happy family, and now had nothing to compensate with...
Though no valuable information was obtained from the perpetrator’s family, Nicholas Croft believed this was a preditated accident; otherwise, Hannah Hargrave wouldn’t have appeared so "tily".
Ti rewound to a week ago, on the wedding day, after seeing off the last group of guests, Nicholas Croft asked Hannah Hargrave for Sophie Foster.
The latter smiled slyly, saying she would return Sophie Foster to him after the wedding night.
Nicholas Croft understood Hannah Hargrave’s implication. Delaying for a night was just a ploy to... seduce him.
He smirked with a trace of sarcasm. Having been in the entertainnt industry for years, he was no stranger to dealing with won in such situations.
That night, while Hannah Hargrave was showering, Nicholas Croft took a glass of wine and red wine. When he returned to the room, Hannah Hargrave had just co out of the bathroom, her damp long hair casually draped over her shoulders, droplets sliding down her collarbone into the deep crease.
She wore a thigh-length, red gauzy nightgown that wasn’t too transparent, yet showcased enough to reveal her allure to Nicholas Croft.
