Chapter 0564
As the door opened, several gazes turned toward me.
"Ari, what are you doing here?" Yasmine quickly approached, taking my hand into hers and giving it a firm squeeze.
"Nichs said you were unwell, and your face does look pale. You should head home and rest. I''ll handle everything here."
I gave her a faint smile. But before I could respond, udia burst into tears, her voice trembling with despair. "Nick, why is she still here? I''ve already backed off! I''m not fighting, I''m notpeting anymore! Why does she still do this to me? My legs... I''m going to lose my legs! Nick, it''s all because of her! Kill her for me! Kill her!" "How about I kill you first?" Yasmin couldn''t stand her maligning me. She rolled her eyes so hard they might have hit the ceiling.
She snapped, "What kind of nonsense are you spouting? Your ident has nothing to do with Ari! Are you paranoid or something? Just so you know, I''m recording everything you say, and I''ll make sure to sue you for this!
*And by the way, when was Nichs ever yours? He used to be Ari''s husband until she decided she didn''t want him anymore. So who are you trying to disgust with this nonsense?"
Yasmine''s frustration spilled over to Nichs as well, her piercing gaze fixed on him. "You jerk, say something!" I squeezed Yasmine''s hand, silently signaling her to stop. udia, who was already fragile, looked even more delicate after the ident. She was now like a porcin doll that might shatter at the slightest touch.
udia clung desperately to Nichs'' sleeve, tears streaming down her face. He lowered his gaze, and although I couldn''t see his expression, I could sense his lookcked the warmth he once reserved for her.
How had thingse to this?
I had asked Neal, and he confirmed udia was indeed facing amputation. I harbored resentment toward her, but I never wanted it to escte to such cruelty.
udia wasn''t entirely wrong. Her impending amputation was tied to me in some ways. Because of one casual remark I made, she was now losing her legs.
A lump rose in my throat. I waved my hand weakly and turned to Neal. "Let''s get the statement done."
A police officer approached to escort me. But before they could, Nichs stepped in front to block their path. His voice wasced with waming as he said, "Don''t touch her!"
His dark eyes suddenly locked onto Neal. He grabbed Neal by the cor, his voice chillingly low as he asked, "Who told you to bring her here?"
In an instant, the air in the hospital room seemed to freeze.
The officers stepped in and poised to act, while Nichs'' bodyguards stood on high alert. The tension was palpable, as though one wrong move would ignite the room.
udia''s sobbing only heightened the tension, but Nichs appearedpletely unaffected. Tightening his grip on Neal''s cor, he repeated his question in a cold, menacing tone, "I''m asking you-who told you to bring her here?"
Neal, who was well-trained, had his patience pushed to the limit by Nichs'' repeated provocations. His eyes shed with a deadly glint, sharp as a drawn de. Sensing the tension escting, I rushed over and grabbed Nichs'' arm.
"Nichs, what are you doing? Let go!"
If it weren''t for Neal''s uniform, the two would likely have started a fight already. And I knew Nichs couldn''ty
a hand on him due to that very uniform!
Nichs'' knuckles turned white. His jaw clenched tight with a pained look in his eyes as he red at me. "You''re yelling at me for another man?
The weight of his words hung heavy in the air. His silent pressure bore down on me, and I could feel beads of sweat forming in my palms.Têxt belongs to N?velDrama.Org.
Just then, the door to the hospital room was suddenly pushed open. A man quickly entered and said, "Oh, oh, Mr. Hawk, what''s going on here? What could have happened to make you so upset? It''s all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!
