Chapter 234 Luke’s Anger


    It was considered normal for someone suffering from hypoglycemia to pass out from extreme sorrow.


    As far as Jason knew, hypoglycemia was not a serious disease anyway.


    When he heard from his boss that Bianca had passed out, instead of asking his boss to talk in the


    corridor, he told his boss in the ward what he had found out about the situation earlier.


    "Before Mr. Rayne''s condition took a turn for the worse, his wife brought his daughter to visit him..."


    Jason observed his boss''s expression as he spoke.


    Luke turned to look at him with surprise. "His wife and daughter visited him?" "Yes. His wife is Jennifer


    Lee, and his daughter is Marie Rayne. Mr. Rayne and his daughter share the same surname, but she is


    not his birth daughter. Jennifer had given birth to her ex-boyfriend''s child when she married Mr. Rayne,"


    Jason exined.


    ''Why are they here?''


    Luke frowned hard. He believed that the matter was not as simple as one might think.


    Jason reported truthfully, "Mdm. Jennifer Lee told the guards that Mr.


    Rayne has been looking for her so that they could discuss ownership of the old house in the small


    town, but she has been busy working multiple jobs to support the family and treat Mr. Rayne''s illness.


    She only managed to find time to visit him today. The guard thought that it was very important, and


    after getting Mr. Rayne''s permission, let the two into the ward."


    As Jason spoke, he noticed that his boss''s expression became more and more unpleasant.


    On the bed, Bianca''s eyshes fluttered.


    Back in Kevin’s house.


    Jennifer unlocked the door, went inside, ced her handbag away, and changed into slippers. She


    circled the living room while muttering, "What should I do? What should I do? How did he die so easily?


    Oh my god, is this a bad dream?"


    Marie was also feeling afraid as she watched her mother making circles in the living room. She sat on


    the couch and tried to calm herself down but could not.


    Kevin seemed fine when they left the hospital. He had even agreed to give her the house and that he


    would settle the procedure within the week.


    This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.


    They happily sat in the cab and appreciated the fall cityscape. They even went to the mall before going


    home.


    Right before they left the mall, they received a call from the hospital.


    Kevin had given the hospital the phone numbers of his spouse and children in case of emergencies.


    Jennifer was stunned when she heard that the patient had passed away. She held the phone to her


    year but did not say a word for a long time.


    Eventually, she stammered, "Can... can you say... say that again? What? He ... passed... passed


    away?" ''Wasn''t he alive and kicking earlier? How did he die just like that?''


    Now that they were back home, Jennifer seemed to have thought of something and pointed at Marie on


    the couch. "What did I tell you? Don''t use those harsh words on your dad, but you don''t listen! Couldn''t


    you see that he was about to croak from the way he coughed? Don''t you know that you shouldn''t


    agitate him when he''s so sick?"


    Marie did not feel an ounce of guilt. She lowered her head and started to cry.


    She cried not because she was sad that Kevin had passed away but because she was afraid someone


    might find out that her words had killed him.


    "I didn''t want it to turn out that way. Who knew... he died so quickly.."


    Marie remained on the couch for the next half an hour before standing up.


    While Jennifery on her bed nursing a headache, she saw her daughter going into her room and


    turning on herputer.


    Marie searched on the Inte if one could be found guilty of anything if their words caused someone


    to die.


    As the children''s saying went, "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me."


    What should happen if words caused someone''s death?


    Eventually, she found an answer in an article on a legal website.


    However, the article used too many technical terms, and she did not fullyprehend it. Eventually,


    she still did not know whether she was guilty of anything.


    Marie continued searching the website.


    Eventually, a pop-up appeared, instructing her to type in the message box if she had further questions.


    She hastily typed a paragraph, briefly exining the matter, and clicked send.


    She received a reply soon.


    [That will depend on where you spoke those words. If you publicly insulted someone and caused their


    death, it can be considered nder, which is punishable by prison. However, if you spoke to them in


    private, you don''t have to bear responsibility.]


    Marie''s fingers were shaking.


    ''We were in the hospital, but the door was closed, and there''s only three of us in the room. That''s not


    considered a public ce, right?


    ''But I''ve said something that ndered Dad!''


    Sitting in front of theputer, Marie convinced herself that the situation earlier was thetter and


    forced herself to calm down.


    If she had spoken those harsh words in private, she did not have to bear responsibility.


    Moreover, Kevin''s condition only worsened after they left the hospital. She felt a lot better after arriving


    at that conclusion, though her heart remained in her throat.


    ''Get up quickly, Mom!"


    Marie stood in front of Jennifer’s bedroom and pulled Jennifer up. "Follow me to the hospital." "What do


    you intend to do?" Jennifer had only managed to enjoy some calm when her headache came back


    again after Marie mentioned "hospital!


    "You''re Bianca''s father''s wife, and so we have to go! Now that her dad''s dead, we''ll have to show that


    we''re sorry, even if we fake it. Otherwise, I''m afraid that we''ll get into trouble!" Marie''s eyes were


    brimming with tears. She was on the verge of a mental breakdown.


    On the rooftop of the hospital.


    Walter Long, the famouswyer, rushed there after receiving a call.


    After discerning the situation from Jason, he walked toward Luke, who was smoking while facing away


    from them.


    "How do you n to resolve this matter?" Walter asked.


    Luke turned around. "You should know very well how to resolve this matter! '' He said while suppressing


    his anger.


    "I indeed know very well, but are you sure that you want to put them in a state where they can never


    redeem themselves?" Walter looked at his good friend, not knowing how powerful love could be.


    It was the second time that the world-renownedwyer was personally hired to handle Luke''s woman''s


    matters.


    Luke''s expression was sinister. He pointed the cigarette between his fingers at Walter and said, "This is


    what they deserve!"
